Because I was with a friend of mine who was racing, I had access to the paddodck and pits. However, because of the hyper safety concerns these days, decent photographic opportunities were restricted. Hopefully, I'll get myself a media pass for next season, so should get closer to the action. In the interim, I was restricted to using a lens that fitted through the narrow gaps in the catch fencing, couldn't pan, and ended up having to crop every action image mercilessly. I really should have just concentrated on paddock and people shots. Anyway, here's a link to click on and you can look at the rest by clicking to the right. http://www.gallery.leica-users.org/v/DouglasBray/Sport/Motorsport/2019/Mondello+Sept2019/Mondello+140919+1.jpg.html BTW, my pal in his little Mallock managed to finish second in his class despite having only 160 horses to the winner's 550!
