Tavho Myrsky skids into his pit area amidst a cloud of choking black smoke. Closely behind, the Belgian driver also darts right and takes to his pit lane, neatly skidding into his garage in a hallmark case of perfect race driving. Behind, Norway and England seem to ease toward the pit lane for a second but then both make a break down the straight away, bypassing the pit entrance in a bid for the lead. Both drivers gear up and prepare for a duel as they accelerate down the Quai des États-Unis toward the Promenade des Anglais. Meanwhile, safely out of the hairpin, France's Aristide La Fontaine gears up. His big Salmson aircraft motor almost drowns out the sound of the cheering crowd of well-wishers who urge him on -- "Va! Va! Va!!" The Spanish driver skids out of the turn at the edge of control, closely followed by Sebi Orsi, whose Maserati sashays from side to side in the skilled hands of the Italian driver. Germany accelerates ahead toward the pits, pulling abreast of the Spanish driver momentarily for the position, but it is fleeting. Hegkman must take to the pits in hopes of repairing the damage to his car. Bringing up the rear, Czechoslovakia and Switzerland smoothly navigate the hairpin at Opéra, both demonstrating extraordinary cornering technique. Many of the drivers crane their heads forward to see what is happening in the pits -- except Rychly, who seems to look straight ahead now toward the other end of the straight…. Will the Belgian and Finnish cars be serviced amidst the fires and black, acrid smoke? Oui, it looks like it may be -- oui! There are men there and…. Mais…. Wait, is it the pit crew? It is someone else? Oui! It is…. Non…. I cannot tell. Non, je ne sais rien! Mais, it looks like Myrsky is climbing from his car! What is this?
