GP2: Beast of Oadby comes a cropper in Istanbul	by Mathias Olaf Uncertain 12th May 2008

Sensitive readers should look away now..., Too late! The dotdotdotcomma news desk is receiving unconfirmed reports that the now legendary Beast of Oadby™ may have been brutally killed in a high-speed hit-and-run incident while on holiday in the Akfirat region of Turkey with a young lady friend. Our cryptozoology experts are reviewing telemetric information in our mission simulator and will advise as soon as any further details emerge. The driver of the vehicle has been identified as one Burnt Sienna, a professional driver from Brazil. The remains of The Beast™ itself have not been found, leading to speculation that he may have survived and crawled off under a hedge somewhere. However, a positive identification has been made by the primary witness, Mr Sienna. "It's a dog!" he said.* * Actually, he said something more to the effect of "F**ing sht! It's a f*ing dog! F*!", in a language that secondary witness Binny Croft could only describe as "Portuguese". Nasty.
