Thats what happens when you make it out here only once a day. The second shot gave it away for me.

Easy you say.

The colors aren't what I would expect, but the only place I can think of with a building like that behind it would be La Rascasse in Monaco.

Nope... it's quite a lot less glamorous then that :wink: It's a modern day photo, not an retro shot. The yellow-ish color is due to the evening sun.

That immediately sprung to mind because of the building, but Fiorano has red and yellow tyre barriers and red and yellow rumble strips.

Easily recognizable? :D I'm not sure. But based on your hint, I'll go with....

Le Mas du Clos

It features a tight right-hander called....La Piscine. And of course it features the large building in the background.

BTW, I've been waiting to put Fiorano up on this post but CMSMJ1 reminded everyone of it. :lol: I'll have to think of something else...If I'm correct, of course.
Best regards. I guess this explains why I'm not at my post!

Bravo!(make sure to stress the last syllable of the word) Your turn. Now you can post Fiorano. :mrgreen:

Sorry!! I was kind of hoping to sneak that on in too! Let's see what you have up your sleeve for plan B 8)
