The year that we visited the convoy consisted of various classic Ferraris. We met them while parking up for the drivers parade on the other side of the river and it was quite a sight. The Gendarmerie outriders escorting them through the streets to the Place des Jacobins.
We always enjoy seeing the drivers arriving for the parade on various scooters, looking over dressed with their race spec crash helmets, complete with various tubes and fittings. Always a good time for a pre race chat and photo while they are in a relaxed mood ! We met Emmo a few years ago, along with Mario A and have a couple of great pics taken with Nishy, Herbert, Gavin etc. It kind of makes the whole weekend a bit more personal, if you know what I mean !
