Video of the Day. 1956 Lap of Le Mans with Mike Hawthorn in a D Type Jaguar.

[khyndart in CA]

I found this clip quite remarkable in it's clarity for being in car camera and sound as Mike Hawthorn drives around the course avoiding cyclists and cars and staying very calm at the place where he was involved the previous year in the worst accident in motor racing history.
