RM Sotheby’s Petersen Museum auction 2018 finale

19th December 2018 by: Kevin Ehrlich | Leave a Comment

Christmas shoppers in Los Angeles on December 8 had a special selection at the Petersen Museum as RM Sotheby’s hosted its last auction of 2018. The RM Sotheby’s staff assembled 68 vehicles and 56 items of memorabilia and nostalgia for the auction. The automobiles on offer spanned many marques and vintages. This was not a single marque auction but rather an assortment of … [Read more...]

The Spa 24 Hours – A History

24th September 2018 by: Glen Smale | Leave a Comment

There are a few major endurance races around the world that roll off the tongue quite easily and quickly, such as Le Mans, Daytona, Sebring and of course the Spa 24 Hours. It is perhaps an injustice that the Spa 24 Hours has over the years not received the coverage of the other major endurance races, but I sense that this is an imbalance that will be rectified in the very near … [Read more...]

Sports Car Racing in Camera 1960-69

17th September 2018 by: Glen Smale | Leave a Comment

There will be few who would argue that the decade of the 1960s was one of the most innovative and exciting periods in modern motor racing. It was a time that was both brutal and evocative at the same time, as the top sports car manufacturers wheeled out their finest designs and most powerful creations with regular monotony. In fact, you could argue that we were spoilt for … [Read more...]

Brian Redman – Daring Drivers, Deadly Tracks

15th August 2018 by: Glen Smale | Leave a Comment

Brian Redman is about as down-to-earth as they come, which for a top-flite racing driver, is not an attribute common to all who ply their trade in this field. I have had the pleasure of interviewing Brian on twelve occasions in the last decade, and he has never been anything other than willing, cooperative and a true gentleman. In one of our early conversations, Brian … [Read more...]

Ninth Le Mans Classic

4th July 2018 by: Glen Smale | Leave a Comment

This coming weekend sees the running of the ninth Le Mans Classic on the famous Circuit de la Sarthe. The event, created by the Automobile Club de l’Ouest and Peter Auto almost two decades ago, has become the jewel in the crown of international historic racing, just as the original 24-hour race has done for current sports car and prototype racing. Run every two years, in … [Read more...]

Gianmaria Bruni talks about Porsche

18th May 2018 by: Glen Smale | 2 Comments

Born in Rome (you don’t get much more Italian than that!) on 30 May 1981, Gianmaria ‘Gimmi’ Bruni began his racing career at the tender age of just 10 years old. It all kicked off in karting, as it so often does. But already from that tender age, Gianmaria Bruni showed a determination that set him apart from the rest. Bruni made his way swiftly up the motorsport ladder … [Read more...]

Autobau – the hidden gem

6th April 2018 by: Martin Raffauf | 1 Comment

There is a collection of cars that every racing and car enthusiast should see. It is at the Autobau, located in Romanshorn, Switzerland. On the southern shore of Lake Constance, the Autobau is easily accessible by train (it is located right next to the Romanshorn main train station) and is close to Zurich. It is also easily reached via lake steamer from Friedrichshafen … [Read more...]
