Anybody care to name the driver waiting for change over, in this pic?
The answer is Vic Elford.
I had meant to put it in the Porsche pic of day thread, sorry.

In the office today for a Board Meeting
Hybrid meeting with only 2 of us here and the rest virtual.
Glad to see the MD has branched out into German over Italian engineering during lockdown
