Off Topic: Paul Frère injured
It's been a bad week for celebrity drivers: Belgian journalist and leading Porsche authority Paul Frère has been injured while road testing a Honda Civic Type-R in Germany.
Frère, now aged 89, is in a hospital near Frankfurt with seven broken ribs, a fractured pelvis and punctured lung. But according to Belgian online magazine La Dernière Heure (www.dhnet.be) he hopes to return to his home in Nice some time in October.
I have a copy of Frère's "Porsche 911 Story: The entire development history", and it's one of the best 911 books I've read. Let's hope he gets well soon, too.
