Very nice shot. One of my favs. Must have been shooting at a high shutter speed.

This completely misses the theme, without the name of the photo, it wouldnt even bring fitness to mind. 5 for image quality though.

Lovely shot, but says nothing about fitness.

Seems like a stretch for a fitness challenge. Photo however is very sharp and a great depiction of motion.

Nice the way you managed to freeze Jensen here but it isn't really saying fitness or stock to me.
I think a title like "Fit for purpose" would have worked better but just muy opinion.

I like this image in general. Not sure how it fits the idea of the challenge. Is that a spinner in that wheel??

You know, this is a lovely, colorful, sharp action shot, but it's in the wrong challenge (despite the caption). I also like the visual impact of the horizontal line dividing road and grass -- cool if it is the edge of the road, but more likely it is a border dividing the frame and therefore probably illegal, I'm sorry to say.

I've heard that driving in races like these are quite more physically taxing than people realize, but I still have to say that this doens't really scream "fitness" to me. It is an interesting shot none-the-less.

I am not voting on this image but if I did I would more than likely give it a 4 or lower.

Let me explain, I "personally" don't think you met the challenge's request to take an image of a "stock" photo of fitness. Your photo isn't bad but I just don't think it's "stock" or "fitness".

A terrific tracking shot connecting the sense of speed, time and space. And yes, race drivers are atheletes. Well done.

Thats what I call real "BRAWN" 10+ lucky you to be there to see and capture this (and hopefully others)... post them up here if you can! Those new front wings/weapons are going create some real havoc this year me-thinks!
