Le Tour Auto Optic 2ooo: Un Rallye Automobile Légendaire Organisé Depuis 1899

La 28ème édition du Tour Auto Optic 2ooo se déroulera sur un parcours de 2250 Kilomètres entre Paris et  Deauville du 29 avril au 4 mai 2019. Le Tour Auto Optic 2ooo 2019 marquera les 120 ans de cette compétition automobile disputée pour la première fois en juillet 1899 et qui demeure la plus ancienne épreuve automobile toujours organisée aujourd’hui.

 

Le Tour de France Automobile voit le jour en 1899 grâce à l’Automobile Club de France. Reprise ensuite en 1906, l’épreuve est alors, si l’on prend en considération les performances des voitures de l’époque, une véritable aventure de 4000 kilomètres. Elle connaît diverses interruptions, principalement dues à la guerre.

Unique en son genre, le Tour de France Automobile a la particularité d’associer des épreuves sur route et des confrontations sur circuits. Au début des années 1960, l’évènement, qui atteint une popularité incroyable, se tient sur dix jours et oppose les plus grandes marques et les meilleurs pilotes du moment comme Rauno Aaltonen, Jean-Pierre Beltoise, Lucien Bianchi, Bernard Darniche, Patrick Depailler, Vic Elford, Gérard Larrousse, Timo Makinen, Henri Pescarolo, Jo Schlesser ou encore Maurice Trintignant.

 

 

Disparue de nouveau en 1965, l’épreuve revient en 1969 sous l’impulsion de Bernard Consten, qui en fut quintuple vainqueur. Cette nouvelle ère, où l’appellation Tour Auto voit le jour, s’annonce attrayante avec, entre autres, l’homologation des Matra 650, Ford GT40 et Ferrari 512. Dix années plus tard, les contraintes économiques liées à la crise du pétrole affaiblissent l’épreuve. En 1986, faute de sponsors et de participants, la 50ème édition du Tour de France Automobile est la dernière. Tout du moins en ce qui concerne sa version « moderne ».

En 1992, Patrick Peter, avec l’appui de quelques inconditionnels, fait renaître le Tour Auto de ses cendres sous la forme d’une course historique réservée aux voitures qui ont participé au Tour de France Automobile original entre 1951 et 1973. Trois années plus tard, l’épreuve est l’un des événements des compétitions historiques.

 

 

Comme le veut la tradition, l’édition 2019 du Tour Auto Optic 2000 débutera le lundi 29 avril par une exposition publique des 240 voitures engagées sous la verrière du Grand Palais à Paris qui fut le théâtre du premier Salon de l’Automobile en 1901 et jusqu’en 1961.

Le lendemain, les équipages s’élanceront dès les premières heures de la matinée à la découverte des plus belles routes de France. Au programme, environ 2250 kilomètres à parcourir, cinq villes étapes (Dijon, Lyon, Vichy, Tours, avec une arrivée finale à Deauville), des épreuves chronométrées (Compétition ou Régularité) sur quatre circuits (Dijon-Prenois, Magny-Cours, Charade et Le Mans), ainsi que dix épreuves spéciales sur routes fermées.

Chaque édition mettant en exergue une thématique automobile, celle-ci rendra hommage aux marques anglaises disparues. Nées outre-Manche du travail d’artisans, véritables orfèvres en mécanique et carrosserie, ces automobiles ont marqué l’histoire à leur manière. Parmi les plus connues figurent AC, Austin, Austin Healey, BLMC, MG, Morris et Triumph. Mais également, plus confidentielles, Fairthorpe, Frazer-Nash, Healey, Jowett et Sunbeam-Talbot. A l’époque, toutes ont fait l’objet d’une participation au Tour de France automobile. Elles sont de retour sur les trajectoires de leurs exploits passés.

A l’instar des années précédentes, la 28ème édition du Tour Auto Optic 2ooo fera la part belle aux modèles rares et exceptionnels qui ont marqué l’histoire de cette compétition automobile qui demeure la plus ancienne encore organisée aujourd’hui.

A commencer par BMW (partenaire automobile officiel du Tour Auto Optic 2ooo) dont les modèles 507, 1600, 2002 TI et Turbo, 2800 CS, 3.0 CSL et CSi, ainsi que M1 seront nombreux au départ.

Mais également Ferrari avec la présence de nombreux modèles prestigieux attendus. A commencer par des 250 GT Lusso et Boano, 275 GTB, et autres 308 Gr. IV Michelotto et Facetti.

Plusieurs fois victorieuses au Tour de France Automobile dans la catégorie Tourisme grâce au talent d’Hermano da Silva Ramos en 1959, puis de Bernard Consten en 1960, 1961, 1962 et 1963, les Jaguar MK I et MK II seront elles aussi largement représentées.

  23. I have noticed that over the course of creating a relationship with real estate managers, you’ll be able to get them to understand that, in every real estate exchange, a percentage is paid. In the end, FSBO sellers tend not to « save » the commission payment. Rather, they struggle to win the commission by doing the agent’s work. In doing this, they shell out their money in addition to time to carry out, as best they will, the obligations of an adviser. Those duties include displaying the home via marketing, representing the home to willing buyers, developing a sense of buyer emergency in order to prompt an offer, scheduling home inspections, dealing with qualification check ups with the financial institution, supervising repairs, and assisting the closing.

  24. I have really learned result-oriented things by means of your blog site. One other thing I’d prefer to say is that often newer laptop or computer os’s are inclined to allow more memory to get used, but they additionally demand more ram simply to run. If one’s computer can not handle much more memory along with the newest software package requires that storage increase, it may be the time to shop for a new Personal computer. Thanks

  25. Its such as you read my mind! You seem to grasp so much about this, such as you wrote the e book in it or something. I believe that you simply can do with a few p.c. to force the message house a little bit, however other than that, that is great blog. A great read. I will certainly be back.

  26. Hello there, You’ve performed a fantastic job. I will certainly digg it and personally recommend to my friends. I am confident they will be benefited from this site.

  27. Thanks for revealing your ideas on this blog. Likewise, a delusion regarding the banking institutions intentions any time talking about home foreclosure is that the financial institution will not have my payments. There is a specific amount of time that this bank can take payments every now and then. If you are also deep inside hole, they are going to commonly require that you pay that payment completely. However, i am not saying that they will have any sort of payments at all. When you and the standard bank can manage to work anything out, the particular foreclosure practice may end. However, in the event you continue to miss payments in the new system, the home foreclosure process can pick up where it left off.

  28. I like what you guys are up also. Such intelligent work and reporting! Keep up the excellent works guys I?ve incorporated you guys to my blogroll. I think it’ll improve the value of my web site 🙂

    I have learned result-oriented things through your blog post. One other thing to I have seen is that normally, FSBO sellers will reject a person. Remember, they can prefer to never use your companies. But if an individual maintain a steady, professional romance, offering assistance and being in contact for around four to five weeks, you will usually be capable of win a meeting. From there, a house listing follows. Many thanks

I’d prefer to say that the expense of car insurance varies widely from one insurance policy to another, for the reason that there are so many different facets which contribute to the overall cost. Such as, the model and make of the automobile will have a large bearing on the price tag. A reliable ancient family motor vehicle will have a more economical premium compared to a flashy expensive car.

  37. I might also like to state that most individuals who find themselves without the need of health insurance usually are students, self-employed and those that are not working. More than half in the uninsured are really under the age of Thirty five. They do not sense they are requiring health insurance simply because they’re young as well as healthy. Their particular income is frequently spent on homes, food, and also entertainment. Many individuals that do represent the working class either full or in their free time are not provided insurance through their work so they go without because of the rising price of health insurance in the usa.

    Thanks for the tips you have discussed here. Additionally, I believe there are some factors which keep your auto insurance premium lower. One is, to bear in mind buying cars and trucks that are inside the good directory of car insurance providers. Cars which have been expensive are definitely more at risk of being stolen. Aside from that insurance is also good value of your automobile, so the higher in price it is, then higher a premium you only pay.

    In accordance with my research, after a in foreclosure process home is sold at a bidding, it is common for your borrower to be able to still have any remaining unpaid debt on the mortgage loan. There are many financial institutions who attempt to have all service fees and liens paid off by the following buyer. On the other hand, depending on certain programs, laws, and state legislation there may be a few loans that are not easily handled through the shift of financial products. Therefore, the responsibility still remains on the lender that has had his or her property in foreclosure process. Thank you for sharing your thinking on this blog site.

    I have observed that of all varieties of insurance, medical care insurance is the most marked by controversy because of the issue between the insurance policies company’s duty to remain afloat and the buyer’s need to have insurance plan. Insurance companies’ revenue on wellbeing plans are incredibly low, as a result some corporations struggle to make a profit. Thanks for the thoughts you share through this site.

    Thanks for the guidelines shared on your blog. Yet another thing I would like to express is that fat reduction is not information about going on a dietary fads and trying to reduce as much weight as you’re able in a couple of weeks.

    Another thing I’ve noticed is that for many people, below-average credit is the result of circumstances past their control. One example is they may be really saddled with illness and because of this they have high bills going to collections. It can be due to a employment loss or perhaps the inability to go to work. Sometimes divorce proceedings can really send the funds in the undesired direction. Thanks sharing your notions on this website.

  50. One thing I would like to reply to is that weightloss program fast can be achieved by the right diet and exercise. An individual’s size not only affects the look, but also the general quality of life. Self-esteem, depressive disorders, health risks, in addition to physical ability are afflicted in extra weight. It is possible to do everything right and at the same time having a gain. Should this happen, a condition may be the offender. While an excessive amount of food and not enough exercising are usually at fault, common health conditions and traditionally used prescriptions could greatly help to increase size. Many thanks for your post here.
