Hawk Cobra 289

Stanislas Machoïr Jnr and Snr, a father-andson pairing from Toulouse, were taking part in a British-built Hawk Cobra replica. “It’s my first time on the Tour de Corse,” said 20-yearold Machoïr Jnr, “and the first run for the car here, but it’s my father’s fourth entry. It’s a fantastic event, with incredible scenery – complete with cows and goats wandering around the countryside. The best bit was Notre-dame de la Serra, which snakes along the coast to Calvi. The car has a Mustang 4.7 V8 so is quick, but we weren’t worried about our times – we were just here to have fun.”
