Told by driver of the 67 car Harry Tincknell.

So it was Harry Tincknell and Stefan Mücke who climbed the wall and waved in front of the hospitality. One of the best moments of the week.

"Having parked up in parc ferme just before the entrance to the pit lane, Stefan and I ran through the Ford Chicane gravel trap to climb up on the tire wall in front of the Ford Hospitality to wave our thanks to the 600 or so guests we had there on Sunday."

No Harry and Stefan, it was OUR honor to salute you for battling as hard as you did to bring the #67 across the finish line and run toward us!!!
A memory for the ages......

There's something so surreal about one of the most iconic celebrities alive being part of one of fords all time greatest motorsport moments in history. Such a great clash of titans in 2 very different worlds.
