I was reading the initial reports of this and losing faith in humanity while reading comments from a clueless sea of people... Despite the clearly stated brake failure, people were like "bad driving" - "no respect for the old car, should be driven slower" - "young driver unable to deal with old style car" etc.... SMH so bad I had to go get a neck massage... At least this site stayed away from that silliness, somewhat reassuring ! I saw the video of Leclerc testing it in fiorano prior to the Monaco Historics - these things are evil to drive snapping out all the time, never mind the brakes- respect to Lauda !
Edit: they even have pics of the brake pads falling out before the crash.. Last edited by Deschodt; 05-18-2022 at 07:09 AM.. |

I saw a Williams car in 1998 in a London bar. I was blown away at how small it actually was.
