Pretty interesting tracking Ash's progress. Looks like he just pulled off to get some gas and while doing so another car passed him.

No, it looks like he got lost for a while and got back on the road going the wrong way.

I can't see how to see a list of drivers or the car type - any ideas?

He hasn't moved for ages, I do hope he hasn't broken down.

I've just found out that the red Noble is a 3R, number 75. I think it's 3rd at the minute (providing that the list of competitors on the tracking site are in order)

Does anyone know the significance of the grey,yellow and green on the car markers?

...not the easiest site to navigate or understand!

Itinerary is here:

Forums here...

Still can't locate a list of cars (maybe 'cause they don't want EU BiB to know?!)

Had a great time there yesterday, got some pics and video (only on camera) of Ash and had a good chat with him and the other Nobler (red one). The chap going with Ash must be the luckiest bloke alive!! Free ride!!

Saw Mr Jenson Button and Jodi Kidd and the Pagani Zonda, Enzo, Farboud etc.

Will post some pics later.

Where were you DanH?

I was there! Had a chat with Ash and gave him Martin's contact details in case he got stuck in Spain.

Sorry I missed you!

He's not actually no, the chap in the shades and red t-shirt under beige jacket is Ash's co-driver who got to go at the last minute. Lucky bugger!! Nice chap though.

All Noblers seem to be bloody nice blokes in comparison to the general types that other marques provide. Do you agree or is it just me?
