My paddock walks and track exploration resulted in a long row of photos, so we’d better just get on with it. Continue reading “Supercars and Whatnot Around Monza Circuit”

A Day at the Races – Marco Mapelli in a Lamborghini Huracán GT3 at Monza
I had never been to a proper race, let alone a race circuit, as I arrived at the Autodromo Nazionale Monza last Saturday morning. Getting there earlier than necessary allowed me to spend some rather relaxing time walking around the paddock area to get a feeling of it all.

Did Lamborghini Hide Their Best-Looking Car in Their Geneva VIP Lounge?
The doors of the 86th Geneva Motor Show are long since closed, and the time for reminiscence is already here. One thing keeps my mind occupied: Did Lamborghini really hide their best looking car in their VIP lounge, out of view from the vast majority of visitors?

Rimac Concept_One has Entered Production
When Mate Rimac, then 23 years old, premiered his Concept_One at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show, I suspect not many expected to see this car again. Fast forward five years to this year’s Geneva Motor Show and the Rimac Concept_One is shown as a production car, with several more under production at the state-of-the-art factory near Zagreb in Croatia. Continue reading “Rimac Concept_One has Entered Production”

Touchdown for Lamborghini Huracán Avio
The second piece of car news from Lamborghini at the Geneva Motor Show was this matte blue Huracán LP 610-4 Avio, which I wrote about nearly a month ago.

Production ready Koenigsegg Regera in Geneva w/video
At last year’s Geneva Motor Show, Koenigsegg brought along the Regera, a completely new way of thinking when it comes to hypercars. It featured a massively powerful V-8 engine, but the novelty was the three electric motors that worked together with the engine, a direct drive unit and a pair of torque converters to create a smooth and seamless surge of acceleration aimed to take the Regera from a standstill to 400 km/h in less than 20 seconds.
