Watched a very good program about Aston Martin last night, BBC 2 8.0pm. It covered the cars history, new developments and racing.
Pauls first race was a very wet Silverstone and as a lead in, they show a very clear view of the Aero 8 GT3 that was destroyed. Such a sad ending. It looks totally beyond economic repair.

I saw that, too..!!
I think it's been on before, but very watchable. He came across a lot less arrogant than he normally does, and the Aston people very courteous. I liked the Brits chanting in the Le Mans crowd at the drivers parade..
Missed the Aero crash though...maybe just as well...

A repeat. I watched it a while ago. You only see the Aero 8 on the back of a recovery truck IIRC.
Interesting programme.

I gave up tracking my cars some years ago as it felt like I was abusing them.... I definitely wouldn't want to race in a Morgan, there seems so little protection.
