The Federal Council's decision to extend the ban on events for over 1000 people by one month has presented the organizing committee of the Arosa ClassicCar, planned for 3 to 6 September 2020, with a challenge.
The core committee of the Arosa ClassicCar has worked out solutions and is pleased that, after consultation with the municipal and cantonal authorities, the legendary ClassicCar event can be held with the submitted protection concept.
With this clear, stringent and good protection concept, a new normality can be established in the racing calendar. For once, this normality will deviate from the usual unique racing atmosphere of previous years, but the OC around OC President Markus Markwalder is particularly looking forward to the roaring engines and racing feeling in Schanfigg in 2020.
Protective measures
The Arosa ClassicCar OC has expanded the existing safety and protection concept to include some points from the recommendations of the Federal Office of Public Health FOPH. The race in 2020 will be held as an event with fewer than 1000 people. Event participants include drivers, people accompanying the drivers, the OC, sponsors, helpers and guests associated with the event. Other spectators are not permitted in the event area (which includes the start and finish area, event hall and paddock).
Infrastructure and buildings for the public will be avoided to prevent congestion. Guests in Arosa are welcome to enjoy the racing atmosphere on the route between Langwies and Arosa in compliance with the usual FOPH recommendations.
A leisurely hike along the route and in the beautiful countryside is worthwhile everywhere. Unfortunately, the popular village parade on Thursday, September 3, 2020 will not take place. More detailed information will follow on the event website.
Arosa classics look forward to classic car fans
Guests are also very welcome in Arosa during the Arosa ClassicCar. The protective measures will be clearly visible in Arosa. In addition to the classic cars, Arosa also has many other classic cars to offer on the first weekend in September: The Arosa Bärenland, the generous all-inclusive offer, many great hiking and biking routes and beautiful nature.
The event offers an excellent opportunity to explore the area between Langwies and Arosa along the various hiking and biking routes and to be part of the 76 bends in a different form. The hosts in Schanfigg are already looking forward to welcoming ClassicCar and Arosa fans.
Interested racing drivers and visitors can find further information on the Arosa ClassicCar website.
