The final round of our hill-climb championship was run yesterday and won by this 35 year-old Chevron driven by its owner, multiple champion (though not this year) Hubert Camilleri.

 

 

As you can see, for once the road surface is very good, the reason being that this event was run up a new by-pass that was only opened earlier this year.

 

This excellent photo is the work of a splendid local photographer Matt Scerri.

Further to the above post, this short clip will give you a good idea of what last Sunday's event was like. It shows Hubert's Chevron, the event winner.

BUT, don't be fooled, this climb is one-of-a-kind. All the others are run on road surfaces that the average British motorist would be very familiar with.

 I think I prefer the look of the other hills you have posted in the past, Barry - More Targa Florio, less Hermann Tilke. Nice backdrop to this one, though.

Looks good, although I'm not sure I like those barriers for single seaters. Too much of a gap underneath

Here is a nice report of our recent Mdina Grand Prix - sometimes known as the Grand Prix of Malta.

It fits this forum because all the vehicles there are classics (or at least, old).
