Photo Gallery «Dani's review 2024 - people, pictures and emotions (picture story)»

As in previous years, 2024 was packed with highlights and challenges. In keeping with his profession, our photographer Daniel Reinhard has summarized the last 365 days in pictures and added captions.

2024 was a rollercoaster of emotions.

Who would have thought that the 10th issue of our annual magazine would become a reality and ...

... just in time, we also welcomed our 10th team member, Martin.

But a few things have changed again this year, with the opening of the ...

... the Geneva Motor Show will probably open its doors for the last time after a whopping 119 years.

The "déja vue" of the year was the three of my first four cars, my father's Golf 1 in 1979, ...

... this was followed in 1985 by an Alfa GTV6, before in 1989, the completely underestimated ...

... Porsche 944 replaced it. From then on, the choice of brand was determined by my customers.

I had the greatest satisfaction once again with a lot of "scrap", because ...

... the "Mausoleum of Kirchberg" was actually taken over by "Auto, Motor und Sport" and "Auto Bild Klassik".

The most interesting table neighbors for me were the 40-year Illmor celebration with Ross Brawn, Mario Illien and Roger Penske.

I experienced the coldest hours in mid-September in the completely freezing tunnel at the Kunkel Pass and ...

... the wettest phase, how could it be otherwise, once again at the Ennstal-Klassik.

My new company car has by far the ugliest dashboard, with the € 4.30 standard display from the discount store.

There was joy, ...

... when my book "Inside Formula 1" also hit the English-speaking world, but also ...

... when I met old acquaintances like Bernd Ramler (ex-DTM engine man from Mercedes).

Sadness when friend and investor Peter Blum had to leave us far too early.

Even at the age of 64, I'm still trying to get a lot of emotion ...

... in my pictures.

Even an old military bunker, filled with an incredible amount of cheese, ...

... had to serve as a photo location in the style of James Bond.

Once again, the most inspiring events were "Indianapolis in Oerlikon", ...

... "Monaco Historique" and ...

... the "Lucerne to Basel Veteran Run", which was held for the first time.

Unfortunately, the "St. Moritz Automobile Week", which was launched with great potential, has already run aground again.

But Kienle and ...

... the traffic lights are history!

Being creative is just one of those things, ...

... which unfortunately is not always understood by everyone.

If you try to deviate from the usual 08-15 path, ...

... it quickly falls through the cracks.

In the fight for a bolder and more emotional pace, you run against a tsunami and ...

... there is always plenty of internal fire under the hood.

So, now let's toast the new year in peace, ...

... because very soon the 15th Zwischengas year will start for me with the Planai Classic.
