Don't they realise that the place has been rebuilt twice since 1955.
Aparently there was a plaque on the safety wall in front of the grandstands, marking the site of Leveghs wreck, but I've never seen it - any ideas anyone

Thanks, I only caught the last few seconds, but you can recall it with the following link, intertersting perspective of 50's racing and the risks,

and select "In Living Memory"
