Default BMW F1 on snow in St.Moritz, full report about testdrive

Here's the full report of the saturday's training session on the frozen lake.
For more info about the event, check out the thread in the F1 section

Some Photos are done with a EOS350D, the rest with my Sony V3 ( if you are interested, check out the file name).

the track




NH prepares for the ride




the roll-out under the eye of plenty of spectators



preparation to start the engine



NH started in the middle of the straight, first drove back the the beginning and did a 180°. On the photo below he's comming back for the first time.




I was mostly filming, hence only one drive-by was captured with photos
as you heard in the video already, TC was on and the engine noise was terrible , but to see the car driving infront of the mountain-landscape was cool




after the drive, the official photographers needed some material and placed the car and NH on the finish line. I did focus on the carpictures.






btw, I played with the white settings, but the car was in the shadow, so the white-snow-pictures are "fake", the one above shows the real color, the second one was edited, you can see the white sky (not possible )


The sunday was a blast, again sunny weather, close access to the action, plenty of footage (1.3Gb); Max Power kindly offered his help cutting a video, Jabba already prepared a "JW-trailer" out of the footage, I'm working on the photos. the full coverage should be ready in a few days
