This is from a round of the French tarmac championship last weekend. It's a bit long and does get boring but the first few minutes show that French rally fan s are loopers and like having fun. Unlikely to happen on Knockalla or the Gap but would certainly pass the time. On a more serious note spectators are standing all over the place and cars parked on the stage isn't too sensible. Oh, and there's few cars, mostly WRC and S1600s.

Forgot about the streaker. Can you imagine being the driver of the 106 and suddenly glancing to the left and being greeted with that! They certainly have a passion for rallying over there, even on a freezing November day up a mountain.
