EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the thrilling atmosphere of the RAC TT (Tourist Trophy) Motor Race held at Ards, Northern Ireland, in 1931. Two Alfa Romeo racing cars, sleek and powerful, are seen in fierce competition on the winding roads of this picturesque coastal town. The race, which took place between 1928 and 1936, was an international event that attracted the best drivers and teams from around the world. The Alfa Romeos, with their distinctive green and white livery, were among the most successful and iconic cars of the era. Their distinctive V-shaped exhausts trail flames as they accelerate, adding to the drama and excitement of the scene. The spectators, dressed in their finest 1930s attire, watch intently from the side of the road, their faces a mix of awe, anticipation, and excitement. The rolling hills and verdant countryside of Ards provide a beautiful backdrop to this classic motor race, transporting us back to a bygone era of motoring history." "The photograph, taken by the renowned ILN (International News) agency, is a testament to the rich heritage of motor racing in Northern Ireland and the enduring appeal of the Alfa Romeo marque. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, inviting us to imagine the roar of the engines, the smell of the fuel, and the sense of adventure that defined the golden age of motorsport.
