Formula 3 Croft

[Ian_H]

No doubt there will be a few threads from this event as usual as saw a few forum members about, some who haven't been seen for a while.
A real pity the GT's weren't at the meeting as apart from a couple of races the overall meeting was quite boring.

1.
Sergio Perez Leading the pack into Clervaux

2.
Andy Meyrick pushing hard into Hawthorn

Love the gravel trap shots,and 1-2-5.
The Red Ginnetta really stands out.
Thanks,
Pons

Wow Ian, those are fantastic. Hard to pic a favourite but 1 and 8 are mine

[GSH]

Superb Ian :)

1 is a cracking example of the pack shot but i really like the "MG" shot. I'd lost interest and left by the time that race started.

[Simon Harrison]

The two FF's gravel hopping are brilliant Ian, but like Geoff the pick of this selection is #3. It was a pretty good race that one.

Cheers,

Simon.

Nice stuff Ian. The air shots are cracking. :D

[jbanbury]

Superb set Ian.

Not being into the roundy-round stuff but that 1st photo really stands out to me. Tells a story of the chaos of a 1st lap (I presume by how tightly packed they are)

[Cadwell]

Beautiful car dynamics on #2 Ian, I like that shot a lot. Gorgeous set over all.

[JuZ]

Nice series Ian, I like #2 and the drivers expression in #7 cracks me up, he's really given up :D

[Semmonka]

Great action shots. Looks like some drivers thought it was a rallycross event :D

[darren h]

Great shots Ian, really like the first one

[Big Ant]

Really nice Ian, I love #2 you can see the concentration in his eyes

[adsayer]

I rarely do motorsport piccys but can only aspire to nail shots like that. Awesome dude

[Ian_H]

Thanks for the kind comments

Cheers
Ian
