Asgeir, if that line was being typed today by a so-called journalist, it
would read "...Clark was not happy."
It would read as a statement of fact, implying that the journo had the
information direct from Clark before the race began.

There would be no mention at all that it was observed by a race official
that Clark appeared to be unhappy.

There-in lies the difference, I think, between objective (then) and
subjective (now) reporting.

All the best to you.

Not the picture. The story talks about a Policeman and a competitor behind
him seeing the leadup to and the actual accident.
