Spa, in the mid seventies, 1000 km race.
Still on the old long track. The cars (group 6 beasts) leave the pit for practice. All of the sudden they radio for a stoppage after the first cars are already near Blanchimont.
Everyone thinks about a big off, but no: the CotC was still chatting away to some people somewhere between Carrière and Blachimont. Parked on the track on the fastest part of the track.
Zolder, mid eighties.
A German race. The F3s leave the assembly area for their practice, about 15 seconds later the pre-DTM cars leave the pits for their practice.
Imagine the faces from Racecontrol and the drivers.
