Now we are on the next day of the Grand Prix that was a very nice day for the automotive sport. The re launching of this event shows that it was very appreciated by the public.

As soon as 8 o’clock in the morning, the roads of Ruffey & Langres finished already to be prepared and the first spectators were arriving on a shining sun.

Around 11h30, engines were whirring on the running track. The last preparatives are done on the cars. Sometimes we could hear a longer noise from the racing cars, which seemed to come from monsters which are waiting for the start.

The flag slopes finally down and in only one second the racing cars are running with a tremendous noise. They are 27.

  

Three big track in composed of numerous corners and especially the “rendez -vous des Chasseurs” corner. Pilots have not only given a lesson to us but have also made us amazing by driving on such a circuit at 150 or 200 km/h.

 

Each Bend slowing down, gear changing and acceleration were followed by strident noises.
