Three GPs in 15 days – I’d by no means had made it

By no means needed to verify the diary. The final Saturday in June was Assen, adopted eight days later at Spa. Thursday evening at Assen fired up ten days of whole chaos and a few sensible racing. Automobile races, deadlines, in a single day ferries, flights in historical plane, chips lined in mayonnaise, loads of chilly beer and deliberate parking; all coming into play to make sure back-to-back grands prix at two European basic venues, that someway produced copy and pictures onto the pages of our respective magazines.
