MICA is saddened by the death of Sue Baker, a long-standing colleague who was not only a fine journalist/presenter in her own right, but a catalyst bringing more females into comms. Sue showed women that they could work successfully in automotive. Our condolences to her family

[The GoMW @gomw_uk]

We are deeply saddened to learn our vice-president and former chair, @carscribe Sue Baker, passed away this morning following a long illness. Sue was a pioneer for women in automotive journalism and a former presenter of @BBC_TopGear. A full tribute will be published later.
