Hi, I would like to introduce myself briefly: I come from Austria and my great passions are motorsport and photography. That's why I attend various motorsport events every year as often as I can, for example the Members Meeting and the Festival of Speed in Goodwood, races in the GT Open Series and the ACI, for which I also have accreditation, and various other events such as the Oldtimer Grand Prix at the Nürburgring, the Jim Clark Revival at the Hockenheimring and the Ventilspiel at the Red Bull Ring.
I am a so-called refugee from the POTN forum, the closure of which I find extremely unfortunate. I hope for a lively exchange and look forward to presenting my photos here.

Those photos, every single one, are absolute perfection!
Hats off, to you sir 🤩
It's obvious that you're combining two passions into one - and that's something to be very proud of achieving.

Looking forwards to seeing more of your images.

Regards for now,
Simon
