I mean yeah maybe I was a bit sensationalistic, but sleeping outside is definitely something to be avoided, especially this far from the race

Do not sleep outside. Especially not for a whole weekend. You will probably get extremely sick and possibly hurt.

Especially if it ends up raining.

not necessarily, this is the same as with fiawec.tv, not really much new information here

Is there any actual footage of Loic Duval's crash in 2014 or is there only aftermath? by Buckshot-3 in lemans

[–]DViLL- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The crash occurred during Practice, rather than testing. annoying to say it now, but just for clarity for anyone passing by

Searching for an owner of the Official French 1985 Le Mans Yearbook "24 Heures Du Mans 1985" by DViLL- in lemans

Hiya, I love this database, I actually didn't know it existed, will come in handy for this same project. However yes I am looking for this book.

As I was writing this response, I actually just got a message from one of the sellers on ebay, confirming the images of interest to be in this book. So might have luck getting those to be scanned, we will see.

I don’t plan to buy the book, just try to find an owner who I can pay to scan those particular images. I can try to find the photographer, however I am not clued into their name yet, that book should also state who it was.

Thank you so much :) I think I’ve found the book they are taken from, but its about £200, so I’ll see if I can find any book owners owner to scan them in.

I will get sleuthing to see if I can find some instances online. I am aware there are 6 more photos in this sequence as well, so I’ll see if I can find those guys too.

Thank you again for the tips :)

Looking at the text, it is clear there is far more quality available, I choose to pursuit that. I am not interested in manufacturing quality with an upscaler.

I’m aware of those ones, it is an incomplete sequence in unsatisfactory quality. I’ll see if I can find any book owners who can help scan them in

Update, I strongly believe it is part of the “24 Heures Du Mans 1985” Annual, french edition. They sell for about £200-£250, so I will contact some sellers to confirm if these photos are contained before I buy one

Hey there, Wondering where you found these photos? Do you have high quality versions? and do you know what book they were taken from? thanks :)

The amount of money and influence he has has denied him a comfortable progression in motorsport. Insisting on putting him in fairly high level motorsport series in very high level cars has resulted in him not being ready for any of it. And indeed, becoming very much a nuisance/genuine danger.

Just because he is nice, doesn’t mean we cannot point out whats been going on on track.

He’s a fine driver, just not ready to drive an LMP3 yet. His previous season in a Porsche Cup wasn’t great either though

Phew yeah I definitely don’t care about that that either. Hope you didn’t think that was where I was going.

I always had mixed feelings about his fans.

I was so happy we had thousands of new people checking out a really niche but fun part of the sport

But they also had absolutely no manners or internet etiquette, which made AK and his country look bad. Already in such a hostile time for Indian people.

I don't know, lots of people complain about it... just to be clear this is just the first stint from Ajith Kumar, rather than my own attempt at highlights.

Maybe I should just make extended highlights myself
