Description
The seventh edition of Ollon-Villars: A big comeback of the cars on the 26th and 27th of August! More than 250 vehicles from Switzerland, England, Italy, France, Austria, Greece, Germany etc. have been driving on the mythical international ride Ollon-Villars. Exceptional landscapes that fulfilled for two days long with F1, F2, F3 but also Grand Prix cars, sidecars and motorcycles.
The record breaking cars from 1963 and 1971. Exceptional entries which in period raced in the F1, F2, F3 and F5000, Prototypes, Saloons, Grand Prix motorcycles and sidecar classes. Thisevent had a truly worldwide entry with vehicles and drivers from all over Europe and also coming from as far as China and New Zealand - all coming to drive the fabulous Ollon-Villars hill climb.
And the drivers: 4 world champions. Fast Freddie Spencer returned again and this year we also welcomed, from a slightly earlier period, Phil Read. We had also be pleased once again to welcome Rolf Biland and Kurt Waltlisberg.
