In the Portuguese HIVE community, a member announced that a car would participate in WRC Portugal 2024 with advertising from the HIVE community, and they had tickets for anyone who wanted to come and support the team and take some beautiful photos of the car with our magnificent logo. I liked the idea and didn't hesitate to ask for a ticket to see the event.
With a heart full of expectation and enthusiasm, I went to the 2024 World Rally Championship (WRC Portugal 2024) in Felgueiras, Portugal.
I wanted to witness the roar of the engines, the noise of the tires and the excitement of high speed racing. My imagination was filled with images of sleek, high performance cars with vibrant advertisements, including the vision of the HIVE logo (The most important moment).
My mind was brimming with visions of capturing stunning photographies of the HIVE car with the action.
The afternoon, I patiently waited, scanning the roaring circuit, hoping to catch a glimpse of the vibrant Ford weaving across the track. However, my hopes began to wane because the last cars appears and the Ford it wasn't there.
I asked someone who was part of the event team about the car. To which he replied: "Didn't see the car, you say??? Well, if the race has ended and you haven't spotted it, chances are it's encountered some mechanical trouble" came the short reply from the event staff.
The realisation that the car had likely suffered a breakdown filled me with a profound sadness, knowing that my eagerly awaited opportunity to capture its beauty had been dashed.
As I wandered through the event, I stumbled upon a group of fellow HIVE community members. Without hesitation, I joined their ranks, and share in their camaraderie over our mutual love for the HIVE COMMUNITY. We laughed, we shared stories, and we indulged in spirited discussions on a myriad of topics related to HIVE and beyond. In those moments, surrounded by friends who shared my enthusiasm and appreciation for the HIVE COMMUNITY, I felt very happy.
As I made my way out of the event, a determination stirred within me to seize one last opportunity to capture the essence of the HIVE car. With a sense of urgency, I headed towards the Exponor in Matosinhos, Portugal.
Exponor - Matosinhos
Despite the looming closure of the venue, I managed to snap a quick photo, capturing the essence of the HIVE COMMUNITY in all its glory. It was a moment of triumph!!!
As I stood there, gazing at the car that represented so much more than just a brand, I felt a surge of pride swell within me. This was more than just a car. It was a symbol of the COLLECTIVE EFFORT, PASSION, and VISION of a community united by a shared purpose.
Each passing day, our community grows stronger, our voices louder, and our impact greater. We are on the brink of something extraordinary, and I am filled with hope and excitement for the journey that lies ahead. Together, we will continue to grow the HIVE platform, to amplify our voices, and to forge meaningful connections that transcend borders.
