Rendezvous Redux

[HealeyRick]

I'm willing to bet most of us loved watching the original C'était un rendez-vous the Claude Lelouch film showing him on an early morning balls to the wall drive through Paris in a Ferrari 275 GTB (ok, it was really a Mercedes 6.9 and Lelouch wasn't driving, but that's besides the point). F1 driver Charles Leclerc and Lelouch are going to recreate the film this weekend in Monaco: https://www.autoweek.com/car-life/b...7/charles-leclerc-le-grand-rendezvous-monaco/ Of course it won't have that outlaw edginess of the original and all the mystery and rumors that surrounded it, but I'll happily watch it anyway. Can't find what car they'll be using, but I hope it will be the 275 GTB for real this time.

Hoping to see it. Even if only "one lap".

Have to say, this is kind of a disappointment. Nowhere near as good as the original.

You're right Rick, no where near as good as the first one.

 

[DrEntropy]

Must agree, Rick. More a "tour" of the circuit.

I'll take the flower girl. You take the car.
