Скачать или смотреть Leon Thery - The Chronometer (Amazing Racing Stories #11)

Some famous drivers are known for their consistency, maintaining a steady pace, but high enough that their rivals could not catch them. Well, the first of them is, for modern fans, a totally unknown... He was a Frenchman who had a short career, but who went down in history as one of the most consistent,
nicknamed the 'chronometer’. This, while they did not remember him by another name: “The Cow Killer”, due to an accident he had on the Course des Ardennes in 1902. He was one of the first drivers to understand the need to drive according to the cars abilities. Often winning when others failed to stay the course, he became one of the top drivers in the early 1900's.
He was described as “a robust, goodnatured fellow, an excellent mechanic, who knows his car thoroughly” and his name was Leon Théry.
