That's Giulio Foresti in Djelmo on Pendine sands.
Opinionated but sometimes wrong

...in an ultimatly unsuccessful attempt on the LSR. Yep, thought the experts would make short work of this one. Well done and a point to you.

Yep, Foresti was lucky to survive. I think I'm right in saying that the car probably wasn't going to be fast enough anyway (not sure tho  ???)
