Aston Martin DBR9 qualifying at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Original - An Aston Martin DBR9 qualifying at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The DBR9 is the race-ready version of the road going Aston Martin DB9. First built in 2005, the DBR9 name is derived from the original 24 Hours of Le Mans-winning DBR1 car, named for then-owner David Brown.

Reason

Not too much background or frontal clutter, the shot shows a nearly full side with some front sheetmetal and grille area, and shows the DBR9 in it's "natural" element, which is in a professional racing format like the Le Mans.

• Strong oppose: Has nothing to do with a well done Motion blur (like here). Just a bad, blurred, unsharp image - Nothing for FP; even no averagely image. Sorry. —αἰτίας •discussion• 21:34, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
