Bringing vintage sports cars together side-by-side, their route includes driving in some of the world\u2019s toughest lands and requires the participants to maintain a demanding rally-time schedule.<\/p>\n<p>On Sunday, organisers, partners, competitors and cars were all excited and reunited for the departure of this great adventure beside the breathtaking, Great Wall of China. An architectural marvel, where the first rally started 109 years ago.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.my-watchsite.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/08\/FrederiqueConstantPekintoParis-3.jpg\" alt=\"Fr\u00e9d\u00e9rique Constant - 2016 Peking to Paris Motor Challenge\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Over 100 vintage sports cars and their crew lined up under the giant arch in front of the Great Wall: Bentley, BMW, Chevrolet, Fiat, Mercedes, Peugeot and Porsche; all the biggest names were represented by their most fabled models. All were ready and roaring with impatience to set off on the 13\u2019000km road.<\/p>\n<p>The 2016 route drives into the most adventurous region of Mongolia, the stunningly beautiful northern sector. It will cross Russia and the Republic of Belarus through long gravel farmland sections for Time Trials; and an exciting new route across Europe with closed-road mountain climbs in the Alps. The route was revised to allow the public from different countries to witness this great spectacle.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.my-watchsite.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/08\/FrederiqueConstantPekintoParis-4.jpg\" alt=\"Fr\u00e9d\u00e9rique Constant - 2016 Peking to Paris Motor Challenge\" \/><\/p>\n<p>But what we will remember from this day is the great atmosphere. The vibrations and roar of the engines, the cheers of the spectators and enthusiasts, all brought together in one. Television teams from all over China were there to cover the scene. Excited, amazed and intoxicated by the moment and the indescribable feeling of being there, in the middle of this entire hubbub, conscious of being part of a truly unique experience.
