#OnThisDay in ’96, as Damon Hill crossed the finish line to win the #JapaneseGP & clinch that year’s #F1 drivers’ world championship, Murray Walker famously said, “…& I’ve got to stop, because I’ve got a lump in my throat.”

#OnThisDay in ’91, after a dramatic wheel-to-wheel battle with McLaren’s Ayrton Senna, Nigel Mansell won the #SpanishGP for Williams; Senna finished 5th after a late spin. Great pic taken by Dominique Leroy.

#OnThisDay in ’75, at Nürburgring, Hesketh privately tested its secret 308B-TT #F1 car - TT for twin turbo. On full boost its experimental V14 engine produced 1800bhp, giving a top speed of 250mph (402km/h). Driver James Hunt said, “It’s frightfully quick & the jumps are scary.”

Evening everyone.

Finally finished my new drawing of the 18 year old talent Archie Gray who we signed from Leeds United.

The @tottenhamhotspur.com midfielder has already proved he is truly incredible.

Let me know what you think. I really hope you like/retweet/comment. #coys #thfc

True and Spa also. At least it was only for ‘94 (albeit Montreal had it again in ‘95)
They did the same thing here at Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve. The temporary chicane looked kinda looked wierd.

The Unforgettable Fire

The transition from Lillywhite's production on 'War' to Eno/Lanois' production on this album is extraordinary. Eno encouraged them to bring ideas, rather than fully-fledged songs, and the result is astonishing.
