Looks like a lot of teams must have used rental cars rather than cars from manufacturers. With Sochi as a resort area, there probably are many rentals available.

For Merc. It’s a GLE. GLE is the model. 300 is the trim level. D means diesel. Model: GLA/GLB/GLC/GLE/GLS/G/A/B/C/E/S Trim level: 180/200/250/300/350/400/450/500/600 Powertrain: D-diesel, H-hybrid, E-phev Hope it helps.

Kym A7 I do not think so? More likely a Q? Something. Just one you missed. Love your reports and style. Cheers.

I don't know if you know this but Antonio Giovinazzi's silver Jeep Grand Cherokee is actually a Grand Cherokee Trackhawk that has a 6.2 liter Supercharged V8 with 707 horsepower from the Dodge Challenger Hellcat and Charger Hellcat.

i reckon the best car would have to be the Antonios Grand Cherokee track hawk, with its 6.2L supercharged Hemi making 707hp, I think its a bit better than Carlos rubicon

The standout for me was Antonio's car. That's not a normal Grand Cherokee. That's the Grand Cherokee SRT Trackhawk. 707 horsepower in a crossover. Pretty much the only sports car in the paddock this time.
