Car started with driver Tony Brooks, handed over to driver Stirling Moss. Moss's car #18 had ignition problems, and as Brooks had been injured previously, it was agreed before the start that the drivers would switch if required. Brooks only managed a few more laps in car #18.
So Moss in car #20 won.

At the risk of restarting the name war , although I'm not keen on the new abbreviation (wouldn't stop me buying tho'), it does suit a busy faced watch like the C70 much better than the longer name - IMOianblyth wrote:S

Re: Focus group
Actually there was one important thing that no one has mentioned yet.
A new clasp for the C60 bracelet.
You will never have to worry about micro adjustments again if this comes to fruition. With some people saying that they would like to buy the clasp and retrofit it to the existing bracelet. That's how good it is.

At any time during the discussion did the topic of the "Bluebird Project" come up ? I have started a Bluebird fund.

Re: Focus group
I want to know more about that C70! When is it likely to hit the streets?

Re: Focus group
Very interested in the new clasp for the C60, like the look of yet another green C70.. the second green watch I like the new logo on incidentally, having seen an actual picture of the C9 in blue... I want it it even more, it may be very blue but its striking, in a good way of course
