This year, ŠKODA AUTO took part in the ‘Sachsen Classic’ vintage car rally (19 – 21/08/2021) with five historic ŠKODA models. The route began in Zwickau and continued through the Ore Mountains to Dresden. The third stage was held under the banner of ‘120 years of ŠKODA Motorsport’. The participants drove from Dresden to ŠKODA AUTO’s headquarters in Mladá Boleslav before returning again to Dresden.
The Madonna del Ghisallo is the jewel in the crown of Il Lombardia Monument race having featured in all but one edition of the autumn classic. With the summit coming at more than 50km the finish, seldom does the climb see race winning moves. However, because of a special chapel at the top dedicated to cyclists, it is a spot that has become a natural pilgrimage point for cyclists across the entire world. Watch as digital editor Joe Robinson walks you through the climb and its importance to the cycling community.

After its world premiere today in the Czech capital, Prague, the ŠKODA ENYAQ iV will demonstrate its sporting qualities as the lead vehicle (‘Red Car’) of the Tour de France tomorrow. The first ŠKODA model based on the modular electrification toolkit (MEB) has been kitted out for its role as the ‘mobile control centre’ for Tour Director Christian Prudhomme.The red-painted ENYAQ iV has a panoramic glass roof, six antennas, special sirens, a refrigerator and a state-of-the-art communication and command centre in the rear. This equipment allows information to be transmitted to and from the vehicle, and Christian Prudhomme can also give instructions and organise the traffic in the field of participants from here. He will also maintain contact with the race commissioners and other tour vehicles and exchange information with them regarding the status of the race. In addition, the ENYAQ iV has a modified chassis for its use in the Tour de France, making it ideally equipped to meet all the demands of the competition. The body of the vehicle is also customised with the branding of the various companies sponsoring the race. This walkaround video shows how the ENYAQ iV was transformed for the Tour de France.In addition to tomorrow’s 183-kilometre stage from Gap to Privas, the new flagship of ŠKODA’s model range will also accompany the cyclists in the individual time trial from Lure to La Planche des Belles Filles and the final 122-kilometre stage. The route takes the participants from Mantes-la-Jolie to Paris, where they will reach the finish on the Avenue des Champs-Élysées after completing 21 stages and a total of 3,470 kilometres.
Each stage of the Tour de France is headed up by a 12-kilometer caravan of race partners. Come take a look backstage at the famous La Caravane Du Tour. The entire caravan consists of 160 to 170 vehicles lining up to promote the various commercial partners of the world’s most famous cycling race. This huge caravan can stretch to up to 12 kilometres in length and runs through a stage at roughly the same speed as the cyclists, so it can easily be on the track for more than four hours. A bit of a circus on wheels, it always sets off exactly two hours before the start of the race.
