After a decade of holding the event in Austria, 1,500 smart fans descended upon the seaside resort of Riccione in Italy at the weekend for this year’s smart times show. Lasting four days, smart times attracts owners, designers and tuners from all over the globe, with one group driving an incredible 2.286 km to be a part of it.
Participants were treated to a visit to Europe’s largest aquapark, as well as experiencing a few laps of the Misano World Circuit. There was also a trip to the Ferrari factory on offer, but the residents of Riccione weren’t seeing red over that particular weekend as – at one point – there were over 800 smart cars flowing through their streets.
The international smart community will be moving on to Belgium for the event in 2012.
