:59:19
The fiendish pace continues with
the Ferraris still holding their lead.
:59:24
Last night produced a lot of dramatic
incidents and strained the machines.
:59:28
Fifty percent of cars dropped out, to say
nothing of Duroc's serious accident.
:59:32
We reported
Jean-Louis Duroc's accident.
:59:35
You know he underwent
a three-hour operation.
:59:38
But a personal drama took place
in the hospital as he was unconscious.
:59:45
However, let's go back
to the track to Graham Hill.
:59:50
He's at the pit
and still has a chance to win.
:59:53
A sheer tragedy
stalked the corridors of the hospital.
:59:57
Duroc's wife
got to the hospital...
:59:59
...only to be told of her husband's
critical condition.
1:00:03
Then something awful happened.
1:00:06
Mrs. Duroc was very seriously shocked,
and she suffered a nervous breakdown.
1:00:12
It has just been confirmed
that she has taken her own life.
1:00:18
For the moment,
we have no further details.
1:00:20
We shall keep you informed
as they come in.
1:00:23
And now back to the track.
1:00:49
All of next week, l'm going to be
driving in the Monte Carlo Rally.
1:00:54
But as soon as l come back...
1:00:56
...Montmartre 15-40.
