WORLD RALLY CHAMPIONSHIP DEAD SEA




This past Friday I headed down to the Dead Sea to cover the World Rally Championship for Total, a French gas company. It was a whole new world for me, and one I knew very little about. The second picture is of Sebastien Loeb, who is kind of like the Lance Armstrong of the sport. He might be an amazing racer, but he's not a very friendly guy. He mean-mugged me every time I tried to take his picture, and refused to be photographed with the CEO of Total (his major sponsor who pays his bills). All this set-up and money spent, and as a spectator you literally see 10 cars speed by you for about 5 seconds.
