The official Franck site has recently uploaded some more pictures to the gallery, featuring photos throughout the man’s career.

Whilst perusing these pictures, it reminded me of something from Autosport International. We were busy stalking FKM, as expected, and he was asked to pose in front of the Peugeot car, with fellow driver Nicolas Minassian.

The photographer said: “Let’s see some smiles.”

And Franck muttered something like: “I am smiling.”

I’m not sure that he was, but to be fair, he had spent about half an hour signing things and smiling at lots of strangers… including me. I suppose he could be forgiven for being a bit pouty.
