Dave Brooke
So sorry to hear the sad news.
I got to know Dave quite well, especially at the Silverstone Classic, as well as at Oulton over the years. He taught me a lot about flagging and how to read a race correctly. God bless Dave, you will be missed. |

David was one of those quiet people who just get on with things without a fuss. A great loss. My sympathies to his wife and family.

Real shame, Dave was a good man, marshal and friend of oulton park. He will be sorely missed. We really have had a couple of bad years loosing friends in the north west. Rip Dave

Sad news. Dave was great to work with - a real gentleman in the truest sense of the word.
