  • The Human Factor in Racing
    The Human Factor in Racing - New Paintings - - Magic Moments - - Big Smiles - A personal view to the world of motorsport Illustrated with photos and water colour paintings of Uli Ehret Dear reader, I would like to introduce you to the world of motorsport - with my personal view to the „human“ side. To show you how wonderful this community is, may not be new to you. But right now, in May 2020, as I miss the community of racing fans from all over the world very much, I would like to bring back the memories, how overwhelming it is to meet like-min- ded people at a racing event. Especi- ally in the time of forced contact- lessness, I would like to show the wonderful thing called ‚togetherness‘. Legend Jack Sears (Photo: Michael Cassel) Michael Cassel, a good friend and great Cobra fan, took this photo in 2016 during the Le Mans Classic event from the American racing driver Jack Sears. Sears drove the breathtakingly beautiful and fast AC Cobra Coupé A98 at Le Mans in 1964. You could tell a thousand stories about his long life in racing. But when I look at this photo, I also see this bliss, which I would like to illustrate to you. Michael Cassel and Jack Sears are celebrating a wonderful moment at the moment of the photo shoot. His gaze into the camera says it all. I don‘t have to add anything to that. But I see even more in his portrait: namely, the „human side“ of our fathers, our mothers, our family members.
