I’m not interested in motor-sport photography. But I’m presently involved as the project leader in a F1-related business and today I’m attending my first track test session at the circuit of Jerez de la Frontera, Spain. Being so near to these incredible cars and free to take photos of them is an opportunity that can’t be missed.

Being on the track gives the advantage of using, in addition to the obvious long tele lenses, also wide angles.
