Outsiders Aston Martin dream of '59


It is fifty years since Aston Martin won at Le Mans with Carroll Shelby and Roy Salvadori in 1959. Can they scratch the anniversary itch here at 15:00 on Sunday afternoon? It is a longshot but then they said something similar all those years ago.
We close tonight with a Colin Marsh picture of the Lola-Aston Martin in the pits during practice here at Le Mans.
I'm off to Guecelard where a rent-a-tent awaits - greetings to all at Club Motorsport - http://www.clubmotorsport.org.uk/
The softer [and older] members of the team are billeted at the B&B Hotel at St. Saturnin. RLT.
