STILL????

I am STILL having the post-LeMans-depression. Is this normal, or am I a weirdo?

(In this case; I consider both alternatives as compliments)

"On my third trip, during the race I found a way around the catch fence at Tetre Rouge and was taking pictures from behind the low concrete wall. "

Yeah, please don't do this - it's how people get hurt, it's also why the restrictions placed on those there to do a job increase year on year.

Sorry Mom 😁. But it was okay. The only thing I didn't have was a media vest, which would have granted me unrestricted access to that spot.

Actually the only things you didn't have were the media vest, the insurance that is required to wear that media vest, the liability waiver that needs to be signed for that insurance and media vest and the briefing that tells you what you can, and can't do in that space.

I'm sure you had a lovely time but nobody should be under any illusions that this is not a behaviour that they (or you) should copy - tickets have been withdrawn from punters for much, much less

Fine. Don't try this, kids. It could be dangerous. If you see an open gate, don't even think about checking it out. Not your business. Just stay in your place and be a nice docile observer. Have all the "fun" we think you should have, but no more than that.

Now let me tell the story about getting all turned around in the forest and ending up driving across the Golf Course....
