Reference: Sadly, the week before the British Grand Prix, I have accepted an offer to drive Swiss entry Herbert Muller's Ferrari 512M at an inconsequential interstellar sports car race at Norisring. Going like hell, jousting for the lead, slower car moved Pedro into the wall and the Ferrari erupted into flames. I have died an hour or so later.
