[Healeys] Healey Vintage Racing at Spa

I think the Jag driver was aware that he entered the corner at too high
speed and wanted to reduce it before trying to turn the car in. He got
panicked when the blue car came in from the left.
This is for my eyes.
The Healey always took shorter brake distances, soo approched the corners
quicker. Not this time. The Jag was just a way to fast. Brake lights coming
in very late.

At least as I see it. Hard situation anyway, and some money smoked. Hope
nobody got hurt.
