Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Bandini in smoking Ferrari

[Michel Savard (mysavard]

75 mph at the TABAC CORNER, still there today and 80 mph on the very short 
straight after HOTEL DE PARIS.
Crazy speed in 1960s with very little protection.
I’m reading Innes Ireland biography now. Unbelievable to read how often he used 
to crashed because of mechanical failures and number of drivers who died around 
him all season long. Those guys used to race almost every weekend: F1, F2, 
sports cars, prototypes, etc
