EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Leap into the Uncharted: The Paris-Vienna and Gordon-Bennett Cup Races of 1902 - Pioneering Motor Car Racing in Europe" 2.. This map from 1902 illustrates the routes of the Paris-Vienna and Gordon-Bennett Cup Races, two of the earliest and most significant long-distance automobile races in European history. The Paris-Vienna Race, organized by the Automobile Club de France, marked the first international automobile race, starting in Paris, France, and ending in Vienna, Austria. Simultaneously, the Gordon Bennett Cup Race, established by the Irish millionaire James Gordon Bennett, Jr., took place in Europe for the third time, with the 1902 event beginning in Zurich, Switzerland, and traversing Germany. 3. The map showcases the spirit of adventure and innovation that characterized the early days of motoring. The Paris-Vienna Race, covering a distance of approximately 1,100 kilometers, and the Gordon Bennett Cup Race, with a length of around 1,300 kilometers, tested the capabilities of the automobiles and their drivers, pushing the boundaries of technology and endurance. 4. The Paris-Vienna Race, which began on July 19, 1902, saw the participation of 21 vehicles, with the winner, Camille Jenatzy, completing the journey in just under 48 hours. The Gordon Bennett Cup Race, held on August 16, 1902, attracted 29 competitors, with Ferenc Szisz emerging victorious in a Mercedes Simplex, setting a new world record speed of 116.8 km/h. 5. The map not only highlights the historical significance of these races but also underscores the growing importance of Europe as a hub for motor car development and competition during the early 1900s. The Paris-Vienna and Gordon-Bennett Cup Races paved the way for future racing events and contributed to the popularization of automobiles across the continent.
