This weekend, the Peter Auto organisation kicked off their season with the first ever Jarama Classica. It was staged at the undulating Circuito del Jarama, just north of Madrid, Spain. Opened 50 years ago this year, the track was designed by John Hugenholtz of Zandvoort and Suzuka fame. Peter Auto ventured south to find a more friendly climate, and while it was sunny most of the three days, it was also very cold. Among the grids that took to the track were all of Peter's familiar groups, which from this year also includes the much loved Group C. Although not all grids were full, we were treated to some spectacular racing and also some very neat machines like a freshly restored Lancia Beta Montecarlo Group 5, a Peugeot 905, a rarely seen Maserati Tipo 60 Birdcage and the Rondeau that won the very first race run under the Group C regulations.
Our photographers also ventured to Jarama, for the first time in a decade, to capture all the races in full detail. The result is this class-by-class report, illustrated by a spectacular 240-shot gallery.
