Jackie Stewart’s Grand Prix Album

Uncategorized
.

With a Foreword by His Serene Highness Albert II, Sovereign Prince of Monaco, only 1,500 signed and numbered books will be created in celebration of one of the greatest F1 drivers of all time, Sir Jackie Stewart. Leather-bound in Scotland by craft bookbinders, an incredible motor racing career is told through the archive of the Stewart family albums. A wealth of unseen photographs, press cuttings, pit passes and memorabilia bring to Jackie Stewart’s historic decade in Formula One racing.

A must for all F1 aficionados and features several pictures ( like the two bellow in 1969.) taken  from the Charade Racetrack I grew up next to in Clermont Ferrand….

I found those couple of pictures of my dad racing his brand new GT3 at Spa-Francorchamps over last week-end. The second photo has my mum as a co-pilot!! Iguess that must be love. With all that said my dad was taking 200 KMH before l’eau rough and 250 before the “S” of les combes. Nice one dad.

DIOGENES THE DOG

I know nothing, except the fact of my ignorance “

Quote of the day from the most admirable and controversial Greek Philosopher Diogenes of Sinope and  founder of Cynic philosophy.

Bellow is a painting of Gerome showcasing Diogneses living in his infamous  tube at the marketplace. A man who publicly mocked Alexander the Great and intellectually humiliated the great Plato. Known for carrying a lamp in the daytime, claiming to be looking for an honest man. He regularly argued with Plato, disputing his interpretation of Socrates and sabotaging his lectures. A Favorite of Mage Design which tend to favor Stoicism which was fashioned after Cynism.
