E.B, moi non plus je ne me souvenais plus de l'Alfa mais la 905, du moins la coque, avait été dessinée par Dassaut. Les pilotes se plaignaient de l'exiguïté de l'habitacle et d'un certain manque de visibilité. Normal puisque c'était un avion de chasse posé sur roues…
Was'nt in '91 the 905 first appearance, Gilles Villeneuve circuit?

Dalmas had a habit of doing that, whatever brand he drove.

Edit: Just realised that the Dalmas incident above was already shown by the 'Jump start' clip Gérard posted.

Interesting re the Fighter jet origins of the 905 in the clip that Will posted re the 905. I noticed small Dassault stickers on the car. I remember the 905's that raced at Le Mans well, it was the 905 Evo2 "Supercopter" version shown at the end of the clip I posted that I knew nothing of. That also had Dassault in big letters on the rear wing so no doubt was equally heavily influenced..

Puisque tu as compris la teneur du lien entre Dassault et Peugeot, je complète. Souviens-toi que c'était les vrais débuts des freins en carbone pour l'automobile, une spécialité française puisque je crois que la Venturi fut la première auto de route homologuée avec cet équipement. Freins carbone venus de l'aviation, merci Carbone Lorraine.
Pour les débuts de ce matériau, il fallait composer avec une plage de température élevée mais surtout très étroite. Façon, avant ça freine pas, après non plus! Mon avis est que Dalmas, Ã* force de sauter les trottoirs de Monza comme toi ceux de Bathurst avec ta 'Tina, a arraché une écope de refroidissement. D'où la perte des freins, surtout Ã* l'avant, ce qui lui a donné la sensation que toute la balance était Ã* l'arrière. Maintenant si tu veux continuer Ã* parler des pilotes français dans ta langue natale… be my guest!!!

To go on with E.B and Benn ralt-reynard-racer something I really can't appreciate when posting on Utub' are the comments. Fine when they come from other racers but all the BS read coming from people with few knowledge p....d me of. I just posted once or twice to please my friend Jean Marc and all the comments are disabled.

Gérard, I know the French were very much at the forefront of carbon brakes... Gordon Murray had got the idea from Concorde and tried to develop the concept for F1 as it began to look like a must have technology in F1. I think he was working with a US Company (Hitco?) who he had an exclusive arrangement with, and which forced other teams to look elsewhere. It took them a few years to perfect having had problems with boiling fluids and other heat radiation associated problems and narrow operating bands as you mentioned. I think French aerospace supplier Carbone Industrie came to the party, but it took them a while to catch up on work Murray had been doing for years.
Hence Brabham were very much helped to their World Championship win in 1983 by their carbon brakes (Piquet was the first to win a GP using carbon brakes in 1982, winning the Brazilian GP - until he was DSQ'd for being underweight. : D)
Certainly the French involvement sped up the advancement of carbon brakes to where we are now. I think Carbone Industrie are now the go to supplier for F1, along with Brembo.

I dont know when they started their deep involvement but I often saw french technicians taking care of the brakes at each important race. Hence the results. Thanks for the clarification about G Murray I totally forgot about. And not only because the supplier is american… Do you remember when the airport maintenance crews had to spread water on the discs after a landing? Pioneers, yes.

Brake cooling on commercial aircraft can still be a cause of concern. Aircraft that are subject to an aborted take-off where the brakes are utilised to bring the aircraft's speed down to permitted taxiing speed are usually required to stay on the ground for a period to allow the brakes to cool. And, in the case where the hold is only short, when the aircraft does actually take-off, it is not unusual for the pilot to keep the undercarriage lowered for an extended period in the climb to allow the brakes to cool further in the rushing air before they are retracted and stored. Unfortunately, not a very economical use of fuel.
