As reported the crazy Gumball 3000 Rally started yesterday in London at Pall Mall. The live coverage site from the gumballers does not keep up with the load and is hard to reach. Good thing there are citizen reporters out there.

Alberto from esnips also has published a photo gallery from the Gumball cars in London.

Austrian news site ORF reports that the racers got tons of speeding tickets in Bavaria and in Austria. The Bavarian police even took four cars off the streets. Most racers arrived a couple hours later in Vienna as planned. Also celebrities like Pamela Anderson and Hugh Hefner are actually not racing yet and seem to join in Asia or latest in the US. The official live coverage of Gumball 3000 is supposed to be on this site, when it is not overloaded and it actually gets updated.
