EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to June 6, 1905, at the circuit d'Auvergne in Puy-de-Dome, France. The Gordon Bennett Cup car race was in full swing, with cars N°7 and N°14 battling it out in front of the stands. The excitement is palpable as spectators watch on eagerly. The advertisements for ACF provisional ranking of the 1st round, establishment Bergougnan and tire company Le Gaulois, Michelin add to the atmosphere of this historic event. It's a snapshot of early twentieth-century automotive culture, showcasing the advancements in technology and design that were taking place at the time. The image captures not just a moment in racing history but also a glimpse into French society during this period. The cars are sleek and powerful, reflecting the growing interest in automobiles as a means of transport. As you study this photograph from 1905 by Lux-in-Fine, you can almost hear the roar of engines and feel the anticipation building as these drivers push their vehicles to the limit. It's a reminder of how far we've come since those early days of car racing while also celebrating the rich heritage of motorsport in France.
