Following the highly acclaimed Hamburg tour a year ago, the program now included the capitals of the three countries from which the Audi factory drivers hail. Carlos Sainz/Lucas Cruz traversed Madrid, Stéphane Peterhansel/Edouard Boulanger were on the road in Paris and Mattias Ekström/Emil Bergkvist steered the innovative low-emission prototype through Stockholm. Many passers-by followed the emotional performances full of joy and curiosity.Madrid, Paris, Stockholm: The three Audi driver teams passed the most beautiful landmarks in the respective capitals with the electrically driven prototype. The royal palaces in Spain and Sweden or the Eiffel Tower and Sacré-Cœur in Paris were just some of the numerous stops on the three routes. At selected locations, the RS Q e-tron also gave a spectacular demonstration of the power of its 263 kW (358 hp) electric drive during drifts. Again and again, many passers-by turned to look at the eye-catching car, marveled, took photos and asked for autographs, which the pro drivers and co-drivers were only too happy to give.

Paris, Jun 26 (EFE / EPA) .- (Camera: Marta Garde / Ian Langsdon) A municipal decree has sown discord in the square of painters in Paris. The City Council has changed the process of granting authorizations and its artists have decided to symbolically protest with their best weapon: a blank canvas.FOOTAGE FROM THE MONTMARTRE PAINTERS 'STRIKE IN PARIS. SOUNDBITES FROM José Luis Leiva, Spanish painter, and Béro, French painterTRANSLATIONLEIVA -We want to reclaim our spaces, we have been here for more than 30 years. The identity of this place is in danger. We can tell the story of this place. Young people don't know its history. This place is unique. No other place in the world where you can see painters doing their work. It's about the destruction of this place, it will become a place full of sellers, not artists.BERO -It is not a question of preserving privileges, but of preserving the identity of Montmartre-The new regulation seems inappropriate to us. It is one that normally applies only to economic activities on public space. It is true that we artists have an economic activity, but our activity is above all cultural.
