No 24-hour race in Eschlikon in 2007
This leaves Switzerland with two "round-the-clock" competitions. The 24-hour race in Mendrisio and the one in Davos. After the successful launch last year, the organizers from Davos in particular are entering the new year with greater ambitions and are likely to benefit from the sad cancellation of the traditional Eschlikon event. A main sponsor has now been found in the form of the Briko brand, and the registration process is now open.
The cancellation of the 24-hour race was preceded by a licensing dispute with the local authorities. The staging of the race on the original race track in Eschlikon was opposed by hunters in particular. Shortly before the event was canceled, a permit was issued almost two months before the event. The consequence of the late approval was a noticeable drop in registrations.www.24-stunden-rennen.chwww.124davos.ch
