Alan Morgan should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Delta In Distress!

Iain is currently stuck in a services at Lille (on his way back from Dijon) without any diesel. I've already messaged John Elwin but is there anyone else who can help? He needs about 20 litres.

I've offered to help but it would probably be 6 or 7 hours before I could get there.

Anyone?

Apparently a tanker has just turned up at the services.

Oh - the heady glamour of international motor racing...

Have you managed to get sorted, Iain?

I'm sorry I couldn't do anything yesterday but I am in the same boat; my car also has an empty tank & there is no diesel available locally.

About 90km - too far when the fuel light on my car has been burning a hole!

No worry John, even in my area which is knowing the worse situtation we can see some Total trucks delivering. A matter of days, c'est le bon moment pour faire du vélo!
