?
Voisin
Pilot: Henri Rougier
Engine: 50 hp ENV V-8
The race number is unfortunately not legible. An official postcard from the meeting shows Rougier in a plane marked 11, but it looks like a Brescia photo. A sketch in an advert shows race number 4. (2)

?
Blériot XI
Pilot: Louis Blériot
Engine: 25 hp Anzani 3-cyl.
The plane doesn't have any markings at all, but there was only one Blériot at the meeting, so this must be it. (3)
