I recently came across an article stating that Bob Varsha has tested positive for the virus. He was one of the main commentators of F1 races when the Speed Channel was a thing here in the US. Definitely a voice that I associate with F1 back from when I was just getting into the sport.

Considering how the virus is spreading, it seems like its only a matter of time before everyone will know someone who has caught the virus. Hopefully the majority will be able to fight it off.
Really enjoyed Bob Varsha's voice in F1 at the time....and loved Calvin Fish's contribution as paddock color.

Back in the day, I sent Bob a letter acknowledging his 100th GP coverage - he wrote me back! This was before ones and zeros....Hopeful Bob recovers.

Just found this when searching....we wish Bob recovery and health:
