Extraordinary. There must have been a dozen different potentially lethal and spectacular stunts in the space of two minutes, all done without the slightest dramatic build up or beating about the bush. Modern movies just can't just give you the money shots these days, they have to make you wait.

This is a normal post Well, as you know
Foxes have as much right to live as every other creature as they have evolved alongside us. So, if people don't like them being somewhere, they'll just have to think of ways to fence them off from where you don't want them to be. It's the humans' problem , not theirs.

This is a normal post maybe not
but they have attacked peoples pets.

Foxes are cold killers. They go into a frenzy and will kill everything around them when able. I once lost 14 ducks to one fox in a single night - it just tore them into bloody chunks and left the bits lying around.

Best solution is a shooting and poison cull. Kill all of the fuckers before one actually does attack a child. That will happen eventually as they get bigger & bolder.

Anyone who keeps livestock knows how foxes are.

This is a normal post From everything I have read on the subject
Foxes simply do not attack humans. Like cats, they just don't dig on dudes.

You seem to be fearmongering a problem that doesn't exist.

edit: also, cats are cold blooded killers. When I was younger I came home from school to find a birds nest on the lawn, with an entire family of birds neatly executed and arranged. It spooked me something rotten.

This is a normal post Actually you can base your opinions on facts
You implied something about fox behaviour that isn't true, something that is a common misconception, that they kill and leave the dead animals behind for shits and giggles.
They've just learn't to store food for the winter. When numbers get too high they inevitably come into conflict with people as they like a lot of the same food as us.

Chris Packham is ace. But I got this info from Sir Attenborough.

I figured it was probably a Courage Oreca and had got the name Stephane Ortelli, but couldn't get any further.

That it may, but Monza it is.

It's the chicane after the Start/Finish straight, Mulsanne has a much longer run in to the chicane with a chicane that precedes it.

In the video above you can see the previous corner is not too distant.

Edit: In addition Pits are visible on the left i.e. Monza

This is a normal post Yeah,
I admit I was having trouble reconciling that side of the track with the side of the straight at Le Mans, but I guess I overlooked it as the chicane itself was a good match. Now you tell me it's Monza I can see it clearly.
