Here's the eagerly awaited photo

I think we all know the price that can be paid when attending race meetings, it is printed on the ticket in smallish print after all.

It is so very very sad that you hear of a death during or after a race. I remember hearing of Siffert's death in the BBC news driving away from the race. We all knew is was a bad crash but they seldom announce fatalities.

I just did not think I had heard right when I learned of Clarke and Senna's deaths.

However they all knew the possible price they would pay, even maybe the marshalls. Some may say it would be a good way to go, doing what you like doing rather than wasting away in a home

Anyway, there are some photo's on the ACO site of the new track, although it does seem tight all is not lost as it looks like a better entry to the esses which might let the faster cars outbrake the slower classes with ease. Still practice day will prove the point. Two more months and we will all be here (weekend after the event) swopping yarns
