GT6 and Isynge Accident
As some of you may know Dad (GT6) and Ian (isynge) were involved in a road accident in France on Sunday on their way back from Test Day.
I've spoken to them both and while they've some injuries they're being well looked after in Alencon and Caen hospitals and it says something that the main thing they want to talk about is the fun weekend they had and other sportscar related things. I would just like to say a huge thank you to all of you that have helped out in the last few days (you know who you are!), It's been great to know they're not alone out there. I'm sure they'll both post with updates of their own when they get the chance. Helen |

Thanks Helen. No problem at all with this being here. There are large numbers of Le Mans fans here who know Simon and Ian and who will be wanting to send their best wishes for the speediest of recoveries. Keep us up to date when you can with any news.

Glad they're in good spirits but certainly hate to hear about this.
Wishing them the best and quick, full recoveries from across the pond! |

You're both in my thoughts. So sorry to hear this. Hoping for a quick and full recovery. Le Mans will not be the same without you guys. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help.

Thanks for letting us know Elaviel, and more importantly I'm glad to hear that both are on the mend.
It's a shame that both of you have to miss out on Le Mans because of the accident, so that means you have to get well soon and make up next year |

Thanks for letting us know Helen, I think a lot of people were wondering why the boys had been so quiet since Test Day. Although this was clearly very serious, I'm just relieved the news wasn't worse.
Wishing you both a full and speedy recovery guys! |
