A Racing Legend

Managed to get this shot of Stirling Moss at the Goodwood Festival of Speed this weekend. We were just leaving Goodwood when he approached in a green Vanwall VW5. I just had enough time to switch from 28-135mm to the 100-400, enough to get one shot before he started off up the hill. I was extremely lucky, this image was at 400mm and has been sharpened and converted to B&W only, no cropping or vignetting etc.
What do you think... ?
Here's Stirling Moss sitting in the same car in 1957 (http://www.wheels-near-u.co.uk/gallery2/v/motor-racing-legends/Stirling-Moss-Vanwall-VW5-Aintree-1957.jpg.html) both seem to be doing pretty well for their age.
