Never mind Spyker, that might be good suggestion for the boys out there. Take a look, I hope they've got their waterproofs and galoshes.
And plenty of vaseline, obviously...

H, I truely hope for them out there that this is some old picture you're showing. If not, they should head to the nearest supermarket to get some bin bags. The picture looks like some serious upside down bin bag time.
I don't care - I'm a racing driver and I'm here to win, not to finish third.

I seem to remember 97?? with the floods in Houx Annexe and 2000? with rain at the start of the race......

but hey let's not talk about the weather  :-\

Looks a bit damp!
Remember the troubles that the closed cars had in 2000? -condensation, dodgy electrics, sodden drivers scrotums.
I tell you, zinc and castor oil cream. Don't go anywhere without it.
I don't want to mention schadenfreude, but it's about 18deg outside, the sun is shining, and my underpants are in absolutely tip-top condition.

Oh i remember that flood in HA .... we had gone on pitwalk leaving the tent open for fresh air purposes, then got diverted into the beer tent when it started chucking it down..... had an indoor swimming pool by the time we got back!!!!  :o

Pleased to hear about the tip top condition of the underpants tho.... wonder if that still holds true on 20 June!    ???

In 97 I was in Musee and the bogs started back filling and spilling down the hill. The rush was on to move the tents before the 'lava flow' reached.

I'm getting ready to fly down in a couple of hours and bringing sunshine with me!  Its nice & sunny here in Cincinnati and the forecast for Sebring tomorrow is sunny with temps in the mid 70's...wohoo! Perfect weather for a race.  Jesus I hope those guys were able to keep their stuff dry, I too was caught up in the LM monsoon of 2001.
