Here's a mystery for you all to get your teeth into: apparently, Bernard Collomb's Lotus 24 was involved in a fire in 1965, which may or may not have resulted in its demise.
I have seen a variety of different versions of events, ranging from a transporter crash on the way home from Syracuse, to it being "burned" c 1965 (Theme Lotus), "destroyed by fire on the way back to France from the 1965 Syracuse GP" (Grand Prix Who's Who), while someone else whose info I trust also said that it was written off in 1965.
But I've not managed to come across a single reliable contemporary source for this so far...can anyone point me to one?
