Motorsport: Celebration of Brock's life

A 90 minute ceremony to celebrate the life of Peter Brock will be held at Melbourne's Sandown Raceway next Friday.

The motor racing legend died last Friday when his racing car crashed during the Targa West rally, near Perth.

Brock's brother Phil says the Sandown tribute is a chance for his legion of faithful fans to remember a remarkable man.

The celebration will come just three days after the nine time Bathurst 1000 winner's state funeral in Melbourne.

A special farewell will also be held at October's Bathurst 1000 where the winners will receive the Peter Brock Trophy.
