GPL: Ferrari from Heaven

3 posts by 2 people · 02 Feb 1999 - 04 Feb 1999

Passing the pitlane in Monaco, all of a sudden a Ferrari without wheels falls down past the trees, right from the sky, hitting the pitlane. ROTFL! The replay shows that Parkes' car appeared in the pits, but without wheels, standing vertically like a rocket, then lauching itself up, going ballistic, coming down again. Further back in the replay, Parkes leaves the pits (this time with and on 4 wheels), suffering immediately a suspension damage (strange, this seems to happen often in the pits, the cars then turn a full lap slowly). He then drives through the armco like a ghost, continuing somewhere in the nowhere of the city, before hitting something, getting propelled skywards, the wheels come off. Rotating like crazy, the Ferrari falls down onto the track, spinning vertically standing on the gearbox like a tornado drilling for oil. No wonder Parkes mechanics did not find his wheels, which landed probably somewhere in the Mediterrean Sea and/or Alpes Maritimes. Parkes car reappeared at the practise without wheels, but at the start it was complete. -- ____ /______\_ .\\ a t t h e a d [ XT./~~~~ [ Rex\_____ http://my.bawue.de/~matthead \____/\__]_] 1977' Yamaha XT.Rex 500 Enduro (153 Mm)
