ALMS 2026–2027 — Season Editorial Project

Status: In development

Editorial assignment: Confirmed

Season accreditation: Approved

This season-long editorial project will document the complete 2026–2027 Asian Le Mans Series across all six races and three European meetings:

– Circuit Paul Ricard, France – 13–15 November 2026;

– Circuito de Jerez, Spain – 15–17 January 2027;

– Autódromo Internacional do Algarve, Portimão, Portugal – 19–21 February 2027.

The project is conceived as a continuous visual narrative following the championship from its opening meeting at Paul Ricard to its conclusion at Portimão. Rather than treating each event in isolation, the coverage will document the development of the teams, drivers, and sporting narratives throughout the complete season.

On-track competition will be combined with an immersive exploration of the paddock, focusing on preparation, teamwork, adaptation, pressure, and the human relationships behind endurance racing. Each meeting will form a distinct chapter while contributing to a wider photographic account of the championship.

The project is supported by a confirmed full-season editorial assignment and approved season media accreditation. A dedicated report from each meeting, together with season-wide coverage, is planned for publication in Persian and English.

Commissioned photography assignments are available for teams, drivers, and partners across individual meetings or the complete season.

WEC 6 Hours of Monza 2026 — Editorial Project

Status: In development

Editorial assignment: Confirmed

Accreditation: Requested

This project will explore the 6 Hours of Monza through the relationship between motorsport heritage and contemporary endurance racing. Set within one of the sport’s most historic environments, the visual narrative will connect the speed and technological sophistication of the FIA World Endurance Championship with the distinctive character of the Italian circuit.

Beyond the race itself, the coverage will focus on the people working behind the scenes, the concentration preceding each session, and the physical and emotional demands of the weekend. The architecture, autumn light, and historic surroundings of Monza will provide a strong visual setting for a story about tradition, performance, and human commitment.

The project is supported by an editorial assignment and will be developed for publication in Persian and English.

A limited number of commissioned photography assignments may also be available for teams, drivers, and partners during the event.

Dijon Motors Cup 2026 — Editorial Project

Status: Completed

Accreditation: Granted

This completed editorial project documented the 2026 Dijon Motors Cup through a visual narrative centred on historic single-seater racing, paddock life, and the preservation of motorsport heritage.

The Masters Racing Legends for Formula One Pré-86 formed the central focus of the coverage. On-track action was combined with photographs of the cars, drivers, mechanics, and technical details that reveal how historic Formula One machinery continues to exist as a living and active form of motorsport heritage.

The project also explored the wider diversity of the event, placing Formula One cars alongside earlier and later generations of racing machinery. Particular attention was given to the relationship between competition, preservation, and the transmission of motorsport history across generations.

A dedicated interview with French-Iranian racing driver Soheil Ayari extended the project beyond the photographic report. The conversation addressed his personal experience, his perspective on historic and contemporary motorsport, and the cultural connection between his career and Persian-speaking audiences.

The resulting project combines a complete photographic report with an original interview, developed in Persian and English for both targeted and international audiences.

Le Mans Classic Legend 2026 — Editorial Project

Status: Completed

Accreditation: Granted

This completed editorial project documented the inaugural Le Mans Classic Legend, a new format introduced in 2026 as Le Mans Classic became an annual event.

Focusing on endurance racing from 1976 to 2015, the Legend format shifted attention towards more recent generations of racing cars and the technological evolution that shaped the modern era of Le Mans. The project explored this transition through an immersive photographic narrative combining on-track action, paddock life, mechanical detail, and the people responsible for preserving and racing these machines.

Beyond nostalgia, the coverage examined how relatively recent motorsport history becomes part of a living heritage. Cars remembered from Group C, prototype, and GT competition returned to the circuit not as static exhibits, but as active racing machines carrying the visual identity and technical character of their respective eras.

The resulting content was developed in Persian and English, introducing this new chapter of Le Mans Classic to both a targeted Persian-speaking readership and a broader international audience.

24 Hours of Le Mans 2026 – Editorial Project

Status: Completed

Accreditation: Granted

This completed editorial project documented the full cycle of the 2026 24 Hours of Le Mans through an immersive, time-based photographic narrative.

From the build-up and the start to nightfall, the early morning hours, and the finish, the coverage followed the transformation of the race over time. Beyond sporting performance, the project explored the atmosphere of the circuit, the physical and emotional demands placed on teams and drivers, and the relationship between people, machines, and the passing hours.

Continuity and contrast formed the visual structure of the story: daylight and darkness, speed and stillness, concentration and fatigue, collective effort and individual experience. Together, these elements reflected the distinctive nature of long-distance racing at Le Mans.

The resulting content was developed in Persian and English, connecting a targeted Persian-speaking readership with one of the world’s most significant international motorsport events.

Particular attention was given to the relationship between Monaco’s racing history and the contemporary community of drivers, mechanics, collectors, and enthusiasts who continue to bring that heritage to life.

The resulting content was developed in Persian and English, combining focused cultural storytelling with broader international accessibility.
