Pau Classic Car Grand Prix

Every year Pau hosts a WTCC race, a classic car race and a Formula 3 race across 3 different weekends. It was the first city in France to hold motor races on its streets. We visited the classic car race

Everyone on best behavior for their day out. Ice creams were awarded

Color & details galore

An older, better Peugeot

A perfect Morgan in British Racing Green

Lavish beyond

More my cuppa tea

50's & 60's

This mini should've won a trophy for effort. He nearly binned it every lap, even on a yellow flag

Would you race it?

This Lotus 11 looked like an old aircraft, all metal and rivets

Mum found her next part exchange

Color

Here's exactly who should be racing this car. Golden

Correct

Strapped together as an old suitcase

Last dash to the line, Pre War race

And ending in the 70's

Sling the trophy in the passenger seat and bugger off to the champers tent, as one should

Pickle enjoyed her first race (even though she was officially at Assen Moto GP inside mum's tummy)
