Henry Hope-Frost, the freelance motor racing journalist and commentator, was tragically killed in a road accident on March 8th. These models were in the personal collection made by Henry and will now help provide some financial support for his wife and three young sons, aged three, six and 12. Henry’s family have been overwhelmed by the generosity and kind comments provided by friends, colleagues and so many more who simply enjoyed his work or were touched by the story. For everybody, it has come as no surprise that there has been such a social media storm of love for the legend that is HHF. Henry infected everyone around him with his incurable and debilitating fever. His words, not ours. His love of everything fast and loud was the fuel for a magnificent career; cars were the moving parts in his turbocharged V12 of a life. Truly, Henry loved anything and everything that went like the clappers when the lights went out and didnt stop until the chequered flag fell. And how he turned this passion into something special. People around the world loved Henrys infectious enthusiasm; colleagues and race fans recognised his unwavering professionalism; nobody at all could fail to be touched by his easy charm and rascals humour. And yet, for all of that, racing was only the second most important thing in Henrys life. His family was what always mattered the most. HHF, all of us would love to help make sure Charlotte and the HF Junior Team have just a little less to worry about right now.. ALL PROCEEDS OF THE SALE GOES DIRECTLY TO THE FAMILY.
