He is the best at spotting in MC

that you always have the feeling that something will appear at the very next moment.

The second picture is a meter further away and just empty from the sun. Totally surprised at lunch. Chile RCH. In front next to Lp, indeed RCH oval.                                                        The first RCH normal car on a normal road. (2x moto and 1 rally special)

Can G97 also be GB?

I asked the net after seeing this Lp. (3weeks?) And olavsplates answer was Yes. So I thought, no shame, it was GB. And today I was getting close. And that’s not GB.                      Gibraltar GBZ

I haven’t seen the moon IRL. And today at 3. It was a super Sunday. All closed. City of Ghosts. Empty streets. This was used by super sports owners. There was 1 car per minute. And every other supercar.

As I say Super Sunday. 38 states. Best day of the week by a huge margin. And 4 more weekly premieres. GBZ, IRL, BY and FIN.                                                                                        (That last picture is because a volcano probably erupted on the horizon and a new island grew. At least that’s what the clouds did).


Who do you support Leclerc. Type Leclerc apm monaco on youtube.

Yes, that’s the bend that enchanted me too. It has one sad legacy. Princess Grace.


Woche mit Schlusssprint 50 (+3). Einziges was fehlte war BIH.

There is another mystery

The rally is coming. Today the prince revealed Škoda. Why this? As you can see, the sponsor is Pastor Group. Court builder of the princely family and real estate dealer.

The mystery from Wednesday appeared today. Can it even be an F? P also comes to mind. Or something completely different.

Such happy Bugatti retirees. The lady laughs, why are there photographers? In CZ, similar people often drive Hyundai iX 20.

We haven’t had a mystery in a long time

I missed 2m to read it. RS Tunis?

Write! Thanks.

In the sun 29. In the shade 22.

From the Avenue to my wild beach. That’s luxury. Just for me. Like on a desert island.

No groundbreaking news

The DK temporary from 2017 appeared.

What country am I seeing this red in? I had to think for a while.
Lp of the day UAE Dubai.


What was it like a year ago at the same time?

A little better.

Busy day. Nothing but 100%.

TN – completely unprepared again.  The second one was better. KSA? The driver looked like that. Certainly not Estonian.

Soldiers from Peru. I was passed by such a strange vehicle before. I couldn’t see anything ahead. But back for a fraction of the time! Black 2 numbers- 2 letters-2 numbers. When I met those soldiers, I was blown away. And in a moment 4 more Asian monks in those red skirts. Better not to think. NI BOX, once a sensation, is really going down. It was the only vernacular building in MC.

Deep, deep below the MC. McLaren garages. And there’s Lando Norris. He talks to the staff. You can’t take pictures. I know they are very sensitive about that. The mechanic jumps out and Lando drives off. That went fast. Although I didn’t go up to stop him there.

Better to buy a fishing rod

It started normally. But gradually it faded into nothingness. Including the airport.


Woche 47 (-5). Z.B. keine AL ,IRL oder DK.


Memory of GP Monaco 2021. Virtually no people thanks to covid.

I always wanted to see it from the beginning. The trucks started coming down already on Friday. So 10 days before the race.

A whole new city within the city began to grow.

Miss discovered Esteban Ocon, me Jackie Stewart.

All this is impossible in normal times.

I felt like the couple at the train station.

RUS/UA day

Djevočka iz Rossiji, confused and sad, on her way to Eze. Already at the station she tried in vain to catch up with the French. I hope I helped her. She had a ticket somewhere else. She elegantly avoided the photo shoot. She certainly hadn’t mood.

Only this arrived at the Oceanographic Museum today. And so it was everywhere. With the exception of UA and RUS. I personally think that all those camouflaged UA (hier very much)  are those UA citizens from the east. That is, the Russians. Those who ran away from Zelensky.

It wasn’t that long ago – I didn’t document AND.
Today, after days of being empty, she came in handy.


Gone are the days when the port was full of Russian superyachts. It is half empty. And supercars of Russian and related communities, too. It’s definitely sadder in MC.

 

Year 2016. First long-term visit, I think. The owner of Avangard Omsk parks in the first row. All the best CZ hockey players played there.
Nordstrom II was being built, etc. But it was not liked across the ocean…….!!!

That’s how it is

First TR on the tour

Expedition to Cap d’Ail

The sea turned black. I felt like I was on the Isle of Man or the Nordkapp.

Lp are back. But without me.

I stopped believing. And inattention was rewarded. Beautiful MAN, without a red belt. By the time I read it, it was too late.

A few days ago they closed the direction to the port in the tunnel. This is a serious complication. Those who want to ride the circuit will not come. The Monte Carlo Rally will have its center in Gap. They wouldn’t even make it to the port. Reason. The famous NI BOX (gaming room, McDonald’s, Starbuck’s) will go down.

Everything has to be done before F1 in May. And don’t destroy the asphalt. NI BOX (probably supposed to represent a ship) was not liked by the ruler. He was the first to be shut down over Covid. I used to go to Mc’s for coffee and to warm up.

The Grand Prix starts at dusk

The timetable for Menton is simple and clear today.

It’s full in Leclerc apm shop. Unfortunately, I haven’t seen anyone at Mika motorbikes yet.

Eastern edge of MC. Direction Menton, Italia. A real rally takes place here every day. Scooters against cars, scooters against scooters. Every pass counts. A narrow built-up road over a precipice. The very hill and the bend. Only the occasional roundabout. Tens (other sources say up to several hundreds) of thousands will leave the MC. At the beginning (it was about 5:30 PM) there were still a lot of girls at school, grandmothers, mothers with children. Sixth, only hard men, able to go Dakar immediately. In Menton, you can’t even ride a bike at 7:30PM. The starting field has already thinned out, the faster it goes. Destination Ventimiglia (about 30km) possibly further.

I think it was last night. I stopped at a red light in Menton. And an Italian motorcycle next to me. On his feet were those beautiful leather moccasins with bare feet. So we exchanged a few words and glances at our shoes. The track is so demanding, cars are overtaken at cm, that everyone could ride a GP moto after a one-day training session. In the front positions. Unfortunately, you have to imagine the noise and stench from the scooters.

Of course, this is an attraction only for us above the Alps. We only see a few motorbikes in the summer. And Vespas is at the annual gathering.

Actually everything is ok

There are 2 trains a day, the weather is pleasant, good food, a bike, nobody knows there is a war… Actually, everything is fine.

Charles Leclerc has teamed up with fashion and jewelry giant apm monaco. They also have boutiques in NZ and in Beijing at the airport and a few more in the city…

TER SUD gréve (strike) has begun

And well they did. Those who didn’t make it to the MC today didn’t lose anything. I went by bus. I prepared 2€. Last year the ticket cost 1.5. So that I have a reserve in case the price goes up. The driver tells me something and finally takes another 0.5 out of his palm. To be objective. I have a monthly pass on the train and that makes 1 ride almost free.

But for the first 14 days it was one euphoria after another. Getting here from CZ and enjoying it. 14 days on a cloud. No one will take that away from me.

Nice. Lp no. Not boring either.

What was the fate of ABH? 90% not good. No return to Nice-CdA.

KSA (90%) on the Promenade des Anglais. Totally inspiring place!

 

An incident in the source of my Sunday sustenance. Carrefour, Le boulevard Gambetta. Coffee 0.80, cake 1.5. But good.


Nice heute 38. MC gestern 34. Und 3 Woche Premiere. Ich bräuchte 4.                                    Woche also 52 (-1). Jetzt ist aber Schluss.

Harvest it now!


2023 ended with 84 states. So a year-on-year drop of 3. A drop again for the first time since the Covid shock. The war in Ukraine is to blame. The Russian route has practically disappeared. Everything (what little) from Asia goes through Turkey and then explodes. While everything went from Moscow to Prague and only then did it fall apart.

In recent years there have always been 3 new states. This year 2. Not one in Prague. PRG is completely off. There is no reason to visit her. Not a single luxury car rallye arrived in 2023. This is unprecedented. I can’t write anything good. All I remember is Mongolia.

I don’t want to be in a country where opinions get arrested and fired. And foreign rags flutter.

Time between the dog and the wolf

The title of one famous book corresponds to the present. All hotels were occupied by tourists from F and I. Prices high.
So Monegasques and visitors from around the world won’t start coming back until next week.

I saw Mika Häkinnen’s motorcycle Verge for the first time in the field. It has an empty rear wheel and costs €80,000.


He has not appeared since. Filming Police and other crimes. I would say.

At best, he’s back in a social flat in Beausoleil.


I am most looking forward to the crane standing on the Square again and taking away the tree.

Shortened moving day today

I reached Place on my route. Obviously full. The train has already arrived in Menton from Italy full. And in this they bring Leclerc Ferrari in front of Casino. Nobody knows what’s going on, not even me. I evaluate it correctly. Evasive maneuver. I’m more like guarding the entrance to the Hotel de Paris. Suddenly, Portier and the beauty make their way through the crowd and they quickly leave. I already know and I’m running. Charles came out the back door. Brake. Porter out. Ch. behind the wheel and away.

Born in Italy, Alexandra Saint Mleux is a 21-year-old reportedly studying Art History in Paris, France. If her Instagram page is anything to go by, art is something she loves appreciating and getting people to talk about. While how she and Leclerc started dating isn’t exactly known, now that they are, they’ve become one of the most adorable couples in the paddock. In their four months together, Alexandra has become a paddock regular. Although she’s now called ‘Charles Leclerc’s girlfriend,’ there’s so much more to her.

So tomorrow I hope with full commitment.



A new look. Finally from the balcony. Menton.

Thanks to Italy: China

I drove down to Fontvieille and down against me was an unidentified Lp RR 1RICH. So I went back upstairs to see if he would come again. And she drove through China non-stop. RR1 then appeared once more at the Place in the evening.

Crowds of visitors from Italy flowed into the center all day today. All ages, all well dressed, all radiating positive energy. Italy is doing well. I wish them the best.
