You said Grand Prix?

In Apollo 16, there has been a famous ride of the rover a little before the close-out of first EVA, that they called "grand prix".
This ride has been used by the Apollo believers to prove that the dust which falls before the wheels of the rover could only fall on the moon, which can easily be proven false (a buggy on earth can produce the same type of parabolic fall of the dust); moreover this dust behaves in a strange manner, which shows that it is not naturally produced.
But this video is not about the fall of the dust, but about some other facts.
First, there is a preliminary ride before the grand prix, during which photos are taken, and these photos show that the rover would have inexplicably made very important changes of direction all along the ride, while it was supposed to go straight, or almost.
Then, when the rover is about to turn back during the grand prix, it appears to be very close to the LM on the video, while it did not ride farther than 70 meters, and the LM was supposed to be 800 meters away; the LM should have appeared farther in the background, and also smaller.
And, finally, the LM looks completely abnormal; and it is not simply a feeling, I can prove it by giving a strong hint (the oversized rendezvous antenna).
