--- Цитировать ---One year photographer Geoff Goddard was leaving the Nurburgring before the race had ended in order to catch a flight home from Brussels, process his films early and deliver them promptly to the magazine customer in time for press deadline. 

In the car park he found Jacky Ickx whose race entry had retired and he asked him if he knew a speedy route back into Belgium and on to Brussels.  Jacky said "Sure - just follow me"... 

Now Geoff was a rapid, enterprising and fearless road driver in his own right.  But he confessed later that he sweated absolute buckets just to keep Ickx in sight as they ripped along, cross-country "...on all kinds of little lanes I'd never even have imagined using"...including a long stretch, I believe, across a NATO artillery range.  Jacky even stopped a couple of times to enable his pursuer to catch up.
