Spectators present in Sebring to follow the opening round of the World Endurance Championship on Friday were treated to a second show for the price of one.
But to see it, you had to look away from the runway and look up at the sky as night began to fall.
While Toyota was preparing to win by offering a masterful double, the public could see in the distance the takeoff of the Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral, located 210 kilometers from the Florida route.
On the images broadcast by television during the race, we can clearly see the long flames coming out of the propellant of the rocket leaving planet Earth.
Spectacular and unusual images.
