Victory for British Motor Cycle
and Italian Car. THIS year's French Grand Prix races were run over a comparatively short course, a lap being approximately fourteen miles It is triangular in shape, the three sides being approximately equal in length, while the start and finish, which is near to one of the corners, is within seven miles of Lyons. Being triangular, the course naturally presents three bends at least, and all of them are distinctly on the acute side. There is also an acute "double back" bend near the apex of the triangle. In addition, there is, near to the starting and finishing points, a double S bend, which had to be taken with cars on the down grade, and which provided, besides the opportunity for the exercise of considerable skill in driving, a multitude of thrills for the occupants of the grand stands, which were in full view of this, the most difficult part of the course. As the
races were held just before we went to press, we are prevented from commenting upon them at length in this issue.
