One shocking part was when Rene won a race at such a young age. This is the La Turbie hillclimb and Rene is in the small engine class with only a few others. He is a young 20 year old trying to go professional, his mother has to sign a contract allowing him to race. "Rene clocked the sixth fastest time, 1st in his category beating his rival by over a minute and a half."(6) This is shocking because hes so young.

One schocking part was when Mercedes finnaly broke the record at the autobahn. A year earlier Mercedes tryed to beat the record but crashed over the banked corner."His average speed over the two runs was 268.5 mph. It was a new world class record."(215) This is shocking because it was not ideal weather for breking the record.

One shocking moment was when the Talbot owner said he dosent care if the car explodes just drive fast. He says this just before the race and the team is in a slump of DNFs."Just go as fast as you can It okay of you break down"(143). This is shocking because a team owner would not want to break down because of the costs.

One suprising part was when Rene won the Monaco gp. Before the race Rene said that they should add another fuel tank so they dont have to refuel. "Rene you won the race"said his brother(110). This is shocking becuase if this didnt work they would have lost the race
