For the second time, the Grand Palais in Paris, near the Champs-Elysées Avenue, was home for the 230 cars that took part in the 2008 Tour Auto. The cars would then head south to Marseille for more than 1100 miles through the winding roads of France.
The Grand Palais was the perfect starting point as it was also where the Salon de Paris took place under its impressive transparent roof from 1901 to 1961.

Alessandro Gerelli in London.
A good photographer (what I am not) always brings along a photo machine when walking around in a city, watching here and there for any kind of subjects.
This weekend I was in London for a pop music concert and I had with me my photo tools: I have brought back three images that may interest our readers.
The first is a picture of a Lancia Stratos Stradale: what a small beauty ! No Aston, Bentley or Porsche may compete!
