Surtees, Hailwood, Dunlop, Fogarty - too many to list

Let's hope that it isn't just talk and John Surtees gets his knighthood.

Could it be that in years gone by there were fewer honours given out , or that they were even harder to get? Mike Hailwood got an MBE for motorcycle racing and the George Medal for his rescue of Clay Regazzoni from his burning F1 car. Wasn't Joey awarded the CBE or KBE?

How do these honours compare with those awarded to other sporting champions ?

Could we start a write-in campaign to nominate people from our sport? Does anyone know the procedure? Does the Isle of Man award civilian honours ?
