Cannes (France), Nov 30 (EFE / EPA), (Camera: Sebastien Nogier).- The Goncourt Prix jury awarded the French writer Hervé Le Tellier for his novel " L'Anomalie ", a work that mixes the crime novel, romanticism and science fiction.FOOTAGE OF THE BOOK "L'ANOMALIE" BY FRENCH WRITER HERVÉ LE TELLIER, WINNER OF THE GONCOURT PRIX IN A BOOKSTORE IN CANNES (FRANCE).
The Frenchman produced a textbook drive from pole position to hold off an aggressive challenge from Panasonic Jaguar Racing’s Mitch Evans to open up a massive 32 point gap with closest challenger Lucas Di Grassi suffering a nightmare day to leave with one point.Home favourite Sebastien Buemi gave Swiss fans something to smile about, taking third place to round off a brilliant week in which he won 24 Hours of Le Mans with Fernando Alonso the weekend before.The first corner of the race brought out a red flag after Mahindra Racing's Pascal Werhlein was squeezed into the chicane wall to cause a 10-car pile-up as Robin Frijns saw his Championship hopes fade by having his race ended by a shunt from Jerome D’Ambrosio during the commotion. Di Grassi looked to have made up 11 places after using the escape road to avoid the carnage but FIA stewards decided to restart the race in grid order due to the overtake being under a yellow flag which resulted in a confrontation between drivers and marshals during the delay led by the Brazilian.Once the race restarted Evans was pushing Vergne hard as he activated Attack Mode but a well-timed full-course yellow helped the Frenchman out as Pascal Wehrlein ground to a halt.
