Rally Charlemagne 1988 Fatal Crash (VIDEO)
Recently @Sedre sent me some videos to download from Ina. One of them was this one.
https://bit.ly/2QGyrfo (uploaded on my mega account, is ready to be added to the archive)
We know for sure that it was fatal, but both of us didn't manage to understand if the driver or co driver was injuried, or was one (or more) spectators to be injuried. I hope that someone will manage to get more info on this one.

Yes, the video originally has an empty audio file. I've cutted it out when i've assembled it because it was useless.

By the way, on EWRC Result there isn't much about this crash, and doesn't have a page on MM.Org.

Update on this accident: crew involved were #35 Mercier-Bailleul (given names are unknown to me): https://sportauto-passion.skyrock.com/3 ... GAGES.html
According to another video from INA archives with interview of rally organizers, deceased person was spectator. Unfortunately, French Death Index reports too many deaths in Nord commune on 5-6 November 1988 so I couldn't say exact date of death and name of deceased person.

In the past, I've added entries to mmorg with less info than you have already gathered, so this is already a success, if such a word may be used, even without the actual names. Have you sent the info to Nanni?

Yes, however, I sent information that only one spectator was killed. When this entry will be added to MM.org, I'll notice Nanni about second person.Jesper Hvid wrote: ↑3 years ago In the past, I've added entries to mmorg with less info than you have already gathered, so this is already a success, if such a word may be used, even without the actual names.
