A multi-millionaire now has video evidence of his driving deficiencies following his performance during a race at the famous Monza track. The man struggled to control the high performance Ferrari, as he slid off the circuit and into the gravel traps placed on the curves for safety. At one point, the man came close to colliding with another racer as he rejoined the race, following one foray off the track. Fortunately for everyone concerned, the car eventually sustained damage from the gravel and this resulted in tyre failure, so the driver had to slowly limp his vehicle back into the pits and retire from the race. The sports commentators however were unable to retrain their mirth at the man’s plight, suggesting he take up off-road racing or go-karting instead.

    An airport in Germany has seen the use of very innovative asphalt paving techniques, with the use of dual-layer, hot-to-hot working. The method was used to meet a very tight schedule for the runway rebuilding work, while also delivering the high quality required. Two InLine Pave trains from Vögele were used at Rostock-Laage Airport to lay a new surface and binder course. The operation was innovative as the process used both hot-to-hot, echelon paving as well as dual layer, hot-on-hot working. Using this
