AUTO RETRO RALLY. BEIJING - PARIS.
Summer, June. Quite by chance, while crossing the border between Russia and Kazakhstan, I met interesting participants in the international auto rally. Participants of this auto show - auto rally, rode retro cars of the 19th and 20th centuries. And a little history. The first auto rally or race was held in 1907 and is now held every year. Drivers from many countries participate in this international race. Now this is already a prestigious participation, for which you have to pay a lot of money. And the application is required to be submitted 2 or even 3 years in advance. The total route is about 15,000 kilometers. And this year already 120 crews took part. A very interesting sight when you are near and you are even allowed to sit in this old retro car. Cars cover more than 500 kilometers per day. Such an interesting day.
