Race Of Champions - Track Laid & Empty Stadium

Race Of Champions - Track Laid & Empty Stadium, originally uploaded by www.bazpics.com.

One of the cool things about covering the motorsport events and shows for so long was the fact that it gets you known at the various venues and racetracks around the UK, Europe and beyond, and that can normally bring in a few cool shots that aren't so run of the mill.

Take this shot of the Stad de France as it prepared itself for the Race of Champions event back in December 2005, somewhat of an eerie silence when you find yourself in such a large stadium and only a small handfull of people milling around, making sure all of the last minute touches are in place before the event starts in earnest a few days later...
