Im getting the orange McLaren one at Silverstone this year. It probably wont say on it
"This is the McLaren shirt we wear when we win"
But then it doesnt need to because anyone who matters will already know :wink:
Will also have all my old Hill, montoya and lewis stuff with me of course :D

It's not really team or driver kit but I have a signed postcard from Enzo himeself (I think) :?:
The Story
It was 1982 & Giles had just passed away. At the time I was working at a place where I had access to a Telex machine (which was the email of its time) A friend & I found the Telex address to Ferrari & we sent a commiseration message to Ferrari and the Villenuve family.
To our surprise we got a message back a few days later asking for our address which we replied with.
About 2 or 3 weeks later a signed postcard of Gilles terms up. The signature looked like Enzo's & it was in purple ink which was how he signed things, which I read at the time. So not 100% sure it was Enzo's signature but I think it was because of the purple ink ?.
I found that quite touching that Ferrari would go out of there way to do that, it probably just shows what Gilles meant to them.

The problem is I cannot find it & I am spewing :evil: Since receiving it I have moved 5 times so it will be somewhere but where ?
