That BMW X5 wasn't taken on the suspended bridge in Hasselt, was it?

I've got to say though, that photoshoot at the finale in Zolder contains some seriously high-quality stuff 👍

Yes, Hasselt, and it's a X6

Ah, my aunt used to live by the road to the left at the bottom of that bridge, and I lived in Diepenbeek, 5-10 minutes away from that place

Oh, wow. These are seriously top notch, I'm really impressed.

You've got some beautiful captures of the events you've been to, especially the FIA GT1. As a big fan of the series (I've watched every event on my computer and attended Silverstone's event). You've captured the essence of the events really well. I really hope to see more from you across the next year. 👍

Just a question, are you following the sports due to work (media) or just as a spectator?

 

[Brecht]

Thx! I'l post some more shots this year
Photographer is my profession, my specialty is Automotive as you can see

I have most if my clients in the Endurance Racing.

Hey Brecht! Most of the shots you posted I have marked as favorites on flickr. Those are the types of shots I wish I had taken. Truly inspiring.

Can't wait for race season to start back up (one week for me - Roar Before the 24 at Daytona). Looking forward to your shots from the European series.

Awesome! We'll definitely have to meet up. While I still don't have photo credentials, I do happen to know Ed Brown (CEO of Patron Spirits and driver in the #2 ESM Ferrari). Send me a message through flickr when it gets closer to the race. I'll see about getting you access to the Patron tent at the track (free food/drinks).
