A few media links, that may have been posted elsewhere, but it's good to see 2CV racing getting into the news in other countries!

My thanks to David Painter from Hot Under The Collar (HUTC) Productions for organising much of the footage that went to these news agencies!

Tony robinson forwarded this to me today.
Just spotted this on MotorSport's website:  The good news is that you can watch the video on said channel at 10am and 7.54pm on Saturday November 6, at 11.41pm on Wednesday November 10 and at 10am and 4.41pm on Thursday November 11. After that we'll put the video up on the Motor Sport website so don't panic if you don't have MotorsTV.
