Boullier safe after plane scare in France
McLaren boss Eric Boullier had a scare on Sunday as he returned from a visit to the fabled Le Mans race. Boullier was sharing a journey on a private plane with friend Zak Brown, a well-known F1 sponsorship figure, when the aircraft developed a fault.

'Thanks to the skills of the pilot, (the plane) landed safely in the end,' the report added. Content on GrandPrix247.com by:...
