In 82, 84, and 86 they had accidents at paddock on the first lap, all involving several cars, so it no surprise to find we get confused. Lafitte was only involved in 86 therefore my wheel, assuming my recall is sound must be from that year.
Rothengatter retired on lap 24 so was not involved in the shunt, but may well have been delayed as he started from the back row of the grid.
Palmer started behind Lafitte so was probably amongst those delayed, and thus on hand to render his assistance.
Note; Unless the moderators take swift, decisive, and punitive measures to put a stop to snide remarks from MR Clever Dick GT. I may have to reconsider my position on this forum.
Then where would you be?
