The dust has settled on the Dubai 24Hr for another year. Like the crankandpiston team, there was no let up for our adopted Scirocco, the VW on duty throughout the event.

Karting the team to and from the circuit was stage one, the second being the repeated runs around the perimeter road, scoping prime shooting locations. No complaints, no stubbornness. And that’s with a boot-full of select cameras and tripods.

Left in the shadows by the race-prepared GT machinery during the weekend, we thought it only fitting that the ‘Rocco receive its own time in front of the cameras. Enjoy these shots from pit road >>>
