Born in Wiltshire in 1956, Stanford may not have entered motorsport with the traditional bunch of qualifications to his name, but his interest in motor racing started early. ‘A neighbour took me to a club race meeting at a little local circuit called Castle Combe when I was about 12,’ he recalls. ‘And then we went to Brands Hatch to see the 1968 Race of Champions, which Bruce McLaren won.
