Due to the voting system in Germany, Governments are always made up of coalitions of different parties. At the last election, an almost unprecidented result saw the CDU/CSU (rough equivilant of the Conservatives) go into Government with the SPD (rough equivilant of Labour)

Found in a magazine from the time:

Quote


Historic racing driver Nigel Corner was injured in a spectacular accident on the Sunday. Corner was thrown clear of his Ferrari 246 Dino after a collision at the start of the race for Formula 1 cars of a type that raced between 1957 and 1961. He is being treated at St Richards hospital in Chichester where doctors have stated that he has suffered a broken collar bone and cracked ribs.

in those days they purposefully didn't wear seatbelts, and hoped that they would be thrown clear of the car, which 9 times out of 10 would be engulfed in flames.

What I would like to know is what's the guy with all 4 wheels off the road doing in the second pic, it must be some time after the accident coz there's a marshall next to the Ferrari. What are the chances another big accident at excat same spot in the exact same race...

Its only a couple of seconds at the most after it. 2 accidents at the same time is very possible
