In 1981 Ragnotti was teammate with Jean-Louis Lafosse at the 24 hours of LeMans. Lafosse blew a rear tire heading down the mulsanne straight and hit the guard -rail and was killed. Lafosse finished 2nd at Le Mans once in 1975 with Guy Chessueil/Jean-Pierre Beltoise/Henri Pescarolo and again in 1976 with Francios Migault Derek Bell/Vern Schuppan in keeping with some great company lets not forget the ultimate price Lafosse paid at the Circuit De La Sarthe. God Bless.
never mind, i read it wrong, thought ragnotti was in the car at the same time as lafosse.
