Gumball 3000 2010 update: VIP party CPH

Yesterday we waited the drivers in to Tivoli in Copenhagen between 7.00 and 9.00 pm but mostly due to the ban of Gumballers in Germany – where drivers had to sit on a coach through Germany while their cars were transported with them – the cars were very delayed in to Copenhagen.

Tivoli was to be a backgorund to this evenings Gumball rally event and an area inside the tivoli were made available for the cars, when they arrived by the Gumball crew.

The first three cars arrived around 7.00 pm with a red Ferrari coming as number one (picture below).

After those few first cars, it took a while before the rest came in. Hours went by without nothing. A few cars arrived here and there (below).

While the cars arrived – drivers and co-drivers, celebs and other press joined the party at Ketchup near the designated car parking. In this area only drivers were allowed, Gumball decision. After they have been driving for long hours, what can be better than to join probably the best VIP party in Denmark this year?

Press were hoping for David Hasselhoff and Xzibit, and got Tony Hawk. Neither David Hasselhoff, Xzibit or Eve for that matter, or Maximillion showed up to the party. Maybe they were late, or maybe they thought about when they are starting the race the next day. Scheduled departure was 08.00 am. ANd at three 03.00 am cars were still arriving to the Tivoli with the party and music creating a nice atmosphere for the cars and drivers arriving there (below).
