Hi all,
just read on a german news site that Pesca will not be at Silverstone and Henri is quoted to see almost no chance of participating in the WEC any more. The Dome is reported to be back in Japan - and his remaining car called AMR 1, Pesca 03 or Crap 05 is not competitive - Henri blames the Judd engine.
@Termie: Is there more about this in the local press?

People think Pescarolo is always grumpy but he isn't. His face is distorted by the nerve damage he suffered in the horrific 1969 Matra testing accident. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCv0QqxKEiwHe also suffered a minor stroke a few years ago. Yes, he looks a bit grumpy, but its not his fault! Nothing I can find, nor on his facebook page.

Oh Andrew....mocking the afflicted?? you HORRIBLE HORRIBLE man!  Not that I knew - I always thought he was a sour face too....in fact as time has gone on, I've believed him to be THE stereotypical frenchman.....which is odd - because they definitely weren't all aboard that Matra..... |

This is the end, my only friend, the end...  Very sad now... but I'm looking forward to what sidestep Henry has in place for next year. He somehow always made it after all.  Please...  |

I don't care - I'm a racing driver and I'm here to win, not to finish third.

Reports are that the Pescarolo is in the process of being wound up by the French courts.
The end is finally here.

Let's wait. One can fall down, that happens. But it's about how fast you can stand up again, this is what counts. And Henri has shown in the past that he can. He was out in 2010 but came back again.

I don't think 'finally' is a word in the Pescarolo vocabulary. He has been re-born more times than the Dali Lama. The end is finally here.

What happened to French honour. They can't let Henri go to the wall
After all, they'll bail out Henri before the Greeks - wouldn't we all

The French courts have done what Audi having been doing for the last 10 years and wound up Henri for good today. (Or at least until he restarts in a few months)
