State Competitions
For this first edition, only trucks will compete in this type of event. The state competition is a test during which the vehicles are evaluated on their condition, in particular the quality of the equipment and its maintenance in relation to the age of the vehicle. The members of the jury, five in number, will have to review a certain number of elements of the vehicle, from the passenger compartment to the engine, from the bodywork to the tires etc. to identify the winner.2
Concours d'Elegance
The Concours d'Elegance is certainly the most emblematic of events because it combines elegance and magnificent vehicles, whether luxury, collectibles, etc. The car and motorcycle elegance contests that will be organized will be contests during which the jury will judge the beauty of the vehicles but not only. In this contest, it is not only the vehicle that will be noted, but the driver and sometimes accompanied by a passenger. The competition will take into account all categories of vehicles (sports cars, classic cars, luxury cars, vintage cars, vintage cars, etc.). Also, it is planned to celebrate the most atypical vehicles, the most original, but also the most emblematic, in short the list of elegance contests will be large due to the diversity of vehicles that will be entered in the contest.3
Motorsport Events
These events will concern sports vehicles but not only. Indeed, the emblematic competition called the "24h du Grand Tour" will see classic or passenger vehicles over thirty (30) years old competing for an automobile endurance event with double women's, double men's and double mixed teams. The motorsport events will be organized on asphalt, on track or off-road.
