"Rallye Neige & Glace 2012", the good one!

Remember last year, same Classic Cars Rallye, same guys, same country, but no snow... This 2012 edition was way different, and we can say it was another race this time. Snow and ice changed the rules, and the 40, 45 and 50 km/h averages became a real challenge for pilots and co-pilots. With negative temperatures from -12°C to -25°C, everybody get cold, pilots, cars, cameraman and photographers. Well, I should say I was FROZEN from the feet to the fingers, in particular my right hand was! But we did the job, thanks to our quality clothes and stuff.

Here are some images I shot during the 4 day "Rallye Neige & Glace 2012". Thanks again to all the staff, Patrick and Viviane Zaniroli, the pilots, the nice Hotel "Le Lac" in Malbuisson, Renault for the funny Dacia Duster we drove on the snow during four days, and my men Tom (photog) and Mikko (cameraman).

Rallye Neige & Glace 2011

Three days from now I'm in the Jura for the "Rallye Neige et Glace" organized by Zaniroli Classics. It's been a long time for me without being in contact with classic cars for a race. The job is not easy, you have to wake up early in the morning and to work late to edit your photos. But this year there is almost no ice or snow for the rally, a bad point. It seems it's the same in the French Alps... The good point is that we have a nice blue sky everyday. I'm proud to share with you some pics I took from saturday night (day -1) to today (day 1). It's time for me to go to sleep, I had a big day!
