Remember Sir Stirling Moss and his Williams F1 Carbon Fiber Elevator? Sir Moss stepped inside this morning, except his lift wasn’t there to greet him. The 80 yr old fell 3 stories, broke both ankles and a couple bones but is well into recovery and should be back in action in about 6 weeks. That’s one tough dude.
We wish Sir Moss a speedy recovery!

Mansory is building 7 of these carbon clad monsters, officially labeling them as “G-Couture.”
All we have to say is, “Ballin.”
Enjoy the rest of the pics.

There are tons of folks, for example, streaming into the park; friends, lovers and families with little children loaded down with picnic baskets, laying down blankets and settling in for free concerts and movies. Sidewalk restaurants are full of attractive, interesting looking people leaning into animated conversation over bread, wine and plates of pasta.
