    At the moment, it`s anyone`s guess.
    Yes, F1 has laid out a schedule, but the province of Quebec is still in a partial lock down and regional curfew.
    You'll also have to see if non-essential border crossing will be permitted.
    We might get a better picture of things to come by late March.

    I dont see it happening this year. Surely not in June and without big restrictions on the crowd.

    As of now, most of Quebec is under curfew.
    Montreal is the hot-spot for anything Covid, our curfew here is from 9:30pm to 5am.
    Land borders are still closed to anything non-essentials.
    Air travel is whole story/****-show of its own right now. Non-essentials trips are allowed, but the requirements in place are clearly made to discourage you and to think twice before travelling:
    • 48h prior departure, you have to book a 3 days stay in one of the selected hotel near the airport for a quarantine.
    • Show-up at boarding with a negative PCR test taken maximum 72h prior departure.
    • Upon arrival, at the aiport, you will be tested again.
    • You are then escorted to your booked hotel, and have to wait for the results. This can take up to 3 days, and you cant leave your room.
    • Assuming your test comes back negative, you are free to leave and enjoy Montreal, where pretty much everything is closed.
    • The bill for that 3 days quarantine at the hotel is on you, of course. They have special rates, which are pretty much on par with what Ferrari charges for Apple CarPlay. And in most cases, the results of your test are here within 24h, but you still pay for 3 nights of accomodation.

    This is the situation now, mid-march. By June, it will be different, for sure.
    But considering our vaccination campaign is really slow, and that there is a real fear of a 3rd wave full of variants hitting us, I doubt we will see any large event in 2021.

    Worth the bump.

    A few days ago I got a DM on my Instagram from a long-ago user and (at the time) regular in this thread, "Carrera_gtcrazy" known as Stephan Bauer.

    "Hey Bernie, as one of the original friends from the Ferrarichat days and helper to fuel my passion for Ferrari’s I wanted to personally let you know I achieved a major goal in my life and just joined the club. I just took delivery of a 2004 360 challenge Stradale"

    After studying in the US and overseas, Stephan went on to become an accomplished automotive photographer.

    I gotta say that I was beyond flattered that he would let me know of his new acquisition.
    I wish him many exciting and safe miles in his new ride.

    Wow! So happy for Stephan!

    I met him back in 2005 at Le Circuit Tremblant. He came out to meet my Wife and I at a Porsche Club Driving event.

    I had the 355 then and my Wide had a Porsche 968. He took a bunch of pictures and we all had a great time.

    I know old thread but I am just getting caught up.
