[Jack the Hat]

Big shunt this morning of the #40,

Also #15 Oak.  Moreau in Angers hospital.  Car repaired and back on track this pm.  A couple of other shunts which stopped practice (1 AF Corse Ferrari and I forget what else now) but didn't hurt any drivers.  Nothing damaged beyond repair afaik.
1&2 both had problems but were still fastest.  Toyotas pretty competitive.
The flying penis looked very tail happy when leaving the pit straight but it did run quite a bit.

ROFL

Didn't know that about OAK.   Saw a few spinning off at the Esses, but no real harm done there.
Guess the last red flag was caused by one of the Audi's getting off at the Porsche curves.

Time to get some sleep, just got home after a 600 km drive ...

It was the 44 Starworks.

Moreau has a spinal injury.  All digits crossed.  We were suprised he didn't go to LM and this explains Angers.  A fellow inmate in rehab' had had a spinal op' there so they obviously specialise in some way.

Yep, emergency surgery to remove fragments of bone from round the spinal cord is never an encouraging thing. Time will tell, and fingers crossed for his recovery.

Top stuff, definately getting in the mood now!

Indeed.

Probably a little lost in translation.

Where it says 'Guillaume Moreau has suffered a serious but partial injury to his spinal cord's twelfth vertebra' It probably means 'His spinal column's twelfth vertebra. It makes more sense that way, and I hope this is the case, as bones mend faster, and more successfully than nerves.

Thankfully that sounds encouraging, given the potentially severe alternative of not having feeling in his legs.......
