    That was my position, showered with carbon fibre and pebbles! The Danes cheered when it came through that it was McNish and not Kristensen.

    That was a horrific crash, but entirely McNish's fault and totally unnecessary - Say what you like, though, that car (and the one that was crashed 'off camera' later at night if I remember rightly) was built mighty strong - A couple of years earlier and that would have probably been fatal.

    Here's the full image. It was well worth jumping through the Sudanese bureaucratic hoops and dodgy 'security' checkpoints to get there.

    What a fantastic thread. I don't have any decent pics to share and my geographical knowledge is relatively poor (although I recognised Brands Hatch and the Sistine Chapel) but that isn't stopping me from enjoying it.

    Looking out over Luffield at Silverstone during the British GP with what appears to be a Mercedes F1 car going towards Woodcote.

    ^^^ might not actually be F1 though I'm certain of where the 'photo was taken! Must be a big race as their appears to be a big screen in the background.

    Ding dong. Almost immediately after taking this photo I received a 3 hour security briefing (it was my first trip to Libya after the civil war) which, as you can understand, was designed to scare the living daylights out of the recipient. I was awoken at 3 am by some herbert banging a drum yelling "Jihad" which had me carefully checking the contents and readiness of my grab bag. Turned out there was a football match the next day and the visitors were staying in my hotel - the performance was arranged to keep them awake and put them off their game.
