Whilst I have bought one, It was more of a last minute addition when completing an order at the RAM.
Whilst I am not discounting his contribution to Motorsport (the achievements are amazing and will never be repeated), but I can't imagine it will solicit interest in 50 years.

I certainly can't name any famous horses or jockeys from pre-automobile days.
