Default POLO St.Moritz FinalGame Babes Cars +SLR Maybach C4S RS6 996

Here are the pictures taken on the Sunday, the FINAL!

this time not only car, no
first some impressions from the final game between team Cartier and BankHofmann. including prize giving ceremony!
Followed by some High Society guests attending the final (totally different world, this " see and be seen" :roll: )
but thanks to the VIP and the sponsors, the whole tournament can be followed for free!

For the cars, there are 3 sections
- many Maybachs on display (12)
- more pictures from the SLR with open doors
- first batch of cars from the parking lot


The FINAL
my small SONY camera looked ridiculos next to the Professional Photographers, but I managed to get some of the action when they were closer
Enjoy!






some "action"- shots with multi-picture function




Team Cartier won the tournament (lucky main sponsor Cartier )


the wifes and gf of the winning players


and a winter-proof-photographer



The High Society is represented by a special kind of women
somebody descrided them as:
wearing a fur, blonde long hairs, silicon, improved lips



THE CARS
Maybach, a team sponsor, took out all their big Limousines, including my favourite two-color combo in blue






after the match, I got one of the red ball and tried to make some "artistic" polo-MAybach photos - unfortunately the wind was quite strong and it was almost impossible to keep the ball in place behind the MM-sign. of course I couldn't use a chewing-gum to keep it there



shuttle service back to the hotel




some more SLR pictures, this time with open doors








First batch of cars from the parking lot

a very nice Combo of Cayenne Turbos, one is a Rinspeed version
quite rare to see a silver-grey one, very rare to see two 8)




italien 996C4S


strange to see a RangeRover with chains , Palace Hotel as background


RS6


Chrysler 300C



this C4S was there with summer tyres :roll: , they had to "dig" him out of the parking, that's why he was parked along the "entrance path"
IMO a very nice color





Still pending are rest of the parking lot pictures, cutting the videos (incl JAguar with snowchains and from the game)




I hope you liked my report of this event!

Cheers 8)

I love the 997 C4S! If I had to buy a new daily driver (and could afford it) right now it would be hard to go past this car, perfect!

Thanks for all the pics, stunning setting and some great cars and women.

POTM right here:

Indeed dingo I was wondering about that 997 shot, but the problem is it is square and not 4:3 and like this would look "wrong" on the portal... on the other hand, cropping it would take away the charm :bah:

I still have this one on fire for stmoritzer:



too bad for the three persons at the back, but snow + supercar + mountains make for a top pic IMO

I agree, that picture is excellent. The 4S ass is sexy. Youd have my vote.

I'm glad you liked the report.

My POTM is either the one TT pointed out or the one with the barrier, I'll pm you TT if I change my mind


About the Rinspeed Cayennes, here's the link to their site:
http://www.rinspeed.ch/pages/porsche.../frames_e.html

actually ther was another black one from Rinspeed there, but I prefer silver grey

It's always a pleasure for me to take a look on your unusual and awesome pictures from your beautiful country. This glamorous event is particularly cool with all the Polo action, chicks and great sport cars.

The Maybach line-up is really impressive. I also like the blue two-tone version a lot. And the Rinspeed Cayenne Turbo is a rare sight, certainly in the snow!
