@off_the_ball: 🗣️ 'By a mile, the most talented racing driver Ireland ever produced!' 🗣️ 'The guy coming immediately after him... was #AyrtonSenna...' 🗣️ 'He drove this #McLaren quicker around Silverstone than... #NikiLauda and #JohnWatson ever did!' #VincentHogan explains why #TommyByrne, the 'brat from #Dundalk' you've 'never heard of' is the most compelling sportsperson he's ever met. The Saturday Panel live on #NewstalkFM from 1:30pm, every Saturday! | 📻 @newstalkfm
His book is outstanding there is also a documentary somewhere on one of the streaming services

I believe there's more to being a racing driver than just raw speed. He could have been shaped into a great F1 driver but didn't want to and was seen as too much of a risk

Great documentary about Byrne. He was a loose cannon. Ended up being so cocky no one wanted anything to do with him.

Good story. Unfortunately you have to play the game. Sure look what they did to Eddie Irvine at Ferrari.
