MUCH better coverage--in English, as a proper race in France should be! :>)

remarkably well and were running first and third.   Coming into Mulsanne 
corner, where the cars slow from 200 mph down to about 40, a GT-class Ferrari 
driver failed to check his mirrors.   The Toyota came zooming up from behind 
and passed on the inside, and was actually almost completely past him when 
the Ferrari driver turned in for the apex, clipped the left rear corner of 
the Toyota and sent it sideways.   Air got underneath and it went sky-high, 
doing a barrel-roll before slamming back to the ground and then hitting the 
tire wall hard.

Very big bummer for Toyota.   And that Ferrari driver earned himself a 
first-class ass-kicking!
