Guy Coulon åtalas för dråp....
Trist start på helgen för Tech3...
Saxat från GPOne.com
In what is fast becoming a tradition, Monster, sponsor of team Tech 3, organized a BBQ/party in the Le Mans paddock. It was the same festive event seen last year, with the "Monster Girls' spicing things up as only they can do.
Unfortunately the atmosphere was made heavy by an incident which occurred on the A50 highway, involving one of the Tech 3 team trucks. As it was transporting the team bikes to Le Mans, the truck backed up while at a toll station near Le Ciotat, and inadvertently hit a motorcyclist that was directly behind it.
The 54 year old rider was dragged some ten meters by the truck and was killed in the incident. The driver of the truck, none other than Guy Coulon, told the authorities he didn't even realize he had hit someone, before being taken in and charged with manslaughter.
