Has to get into Formula One..Very soon.
Anyone see him in Denver last night. Absolutely sensational.
On pole, spins avoiding his team mate on the first corner, and ends up 13th. Then climbs the field by overtakin on green flag laps on a "difficult to pass" circuit and wins from Paul Tracy.
That was a race that reminded me why I love the sport so much. Real derring-do and heroics. Fantastic.

Shame he didn't show the same levels of skill at Le Mans......remember the Belmondo & Rollcentre "incidents" ?
A good performance though this weekend, I must say.....let's hope he keeps it up.
He was driving an LM2 car and dicing with the LM1 boys.. The class of the field in LM2. I thought it was JCB or soheil Ayari that tangled with Martin Short?

No - he was driving an LMP1 car - and rather too aggressively for an enduranece race.
I stand corrected. He was sharing with two other amazing French drivers - Helary and Ayari? It was a long time ago now and I might have had a G&T (or two).
What was the the stunning all french piloted LMP2 car that was miles in the lead before it broke (I think Jean-Mark Gounon may have been one of the drivers)?

That was the courage LMP2!. Very rapid bit of kit that won at Silverstone last weekend - I think it did have J-M Gounon (and Sam Hancock) in it.
Is Sam Hancock good? I was approached at Silverstone by one of his team about sponsorship (not that I have any money left after giving it all to John George and Phil Bennett
