I had to fly through a pretty heavy snow storm to get in and out. (You know it is snow when it just bounces off the canopy)
Tom was having a good day in front of the pack until he got really low near the top turn and had to grind his way up a ridge. From a height the locals didn't think could be done. But he still finished a creditable 5th.
And what of Bruce? Not a great day by all accounts. He landed in a paddock on the third leg. It seems that French farmers are a feisty lot. Just about everyone who has been in a paddock this week has had issues with the landowner. Poor old Bruce actually got in a punch up with his farmer. Most unpleasant. Police involved and everything. There truly are some psychopaths out there.
Let's hope he can put that experience behind him and put in another blinder tomorrow, as he is still very much in the hunt.

Geez Graham, this Grand Prix has everything! Beer surveys to Fighter pilots. I would back Bruce any day as I think he would have a long reach!
ReplyDeleteUnbelievable as I thought the French were supposed to love us ANZAC's. Tough watching Tom grind his way up the Ridge.

A good old Ausie bunch of fives will sort out the Frogs and Toads, go Bruce, I"m in your corner.Cheers Roly.
ReplyDeleteGood racing Graham. What a tough last day at the end. Watching the life coverage was like reading a crimi guessing many times wrong who will make it home first or at all. Pitty you couldn't carry the height straight over the Durance vally. Have a good trip home. Chris Hostettler
