Cobrar · Jun 10, 2015

DBK is in the EU, so in his absence, I'll try to provide some insight into the event. Below is a note that includes a link (in bold) to see/hear the event in a live stream. If he logs in, he can provide the official Ford media link, when it becomes available. So until then:

I'm just here, having an espresso, looking for some friends. They weren't in Monaco at the Metropole.

But the staff was very helpful.

dbk · Jun 10, 2015

They weren't at the hairpin.

Or in the tunnel.

dbk · Jun 10, 2015

I thought maybe they went up in the hills, so we took a ride up the Col de Turini.

It was very helpful that Ford of France had this waiting for me at Charles De Gaulle on Sunday!

And it's a diesel!

dbk · Jun 10, 2015

Maybe they went a little further east?

It's always good to find a rabbit on the Autostrada.

dbk · Jun 10, 2015

I know where we might find them.

Better check in here real quick.

Nope, wrong guys.

Awsum GT · Jun 10, 2015

I feel so bad for you Dave... to have to travel to all of those out of the way places... at least you are in a Ford! Can't wait to hear about your trip.

dbk · Jun 10, 2015

Better head north.

Different bar, same result. Better espresso.

And the view is ok.

dbk · Jun 10, 2015

Maybe they went up this way.

Seems promising.

Cloudy up here today, and the company isn't all that friendly.

And don't look down!

dbk · Jun 10, 2015

Good thing where we headed next has an appreciation for speed. It's all she's got.

We shall continue tomorrow, and proper write up coming when I have time. Until then, the shroud of mystery remains! :lol

Wouldn't do it any other way!

Sinovac · Jun 10, 2015

That is a terribly circuitous route to Le Mans. E50 southwest from Charles De Gaulle and voila, you're there.

How much is petrol in Switzerland?

Awsum GT · Jun 10, 2015

This is the DBK version of where's Waldo. Where will he pop up next.

RALPHIE · Jun 10, 2015

Nice day in the Eifel Mountains! Going to Spa next?

Indy GT · Jun 10, 2015

This is great!
An adult version of Where's Waldo.....
Give us a write up when you can.

The Grey Ghost · Jun 10, 2015

Must be scoping out Rally 11.. A true Rally...Just departed Koln last night .. Nice day in the Rhineland.
I'd say enjoy your stay, but from the pictures, it would be hard not too.
Remember to come back for August...:biggrin

Euro spec Fords are so stout... Hopefully the new RS will be also.
