For Pescarolo, same things except for "pes", pronounce a short è instead of é, like in "fair".

For Euskadi,
Eu : I haven't found a similar sound, for those who learned some french it's like in "deux", maybe a bit like "Euston station". After it's like minimangler said. I don't know the exact basque pronunciation.
More like "deux" than "Euston" in fact... "e" like in "entry" and "oo" as is "moose" will get you close enough, e-oos-ka-dee

Oh, I know that. I've just always heard it pronounced "Niss-ann" while watching Aussie V8's, and BTCC. I much prefer that pronunciation, haha.
