The Euler-Lagrange equations associated to the problem of minimizing a power-law functional acting on symmetrized gradients are identified. A formal derivation of the limiting system of partial differential equations stemming from these equations as p tends to infinity is provided. Our computations are reminiscent of the derivation of the infinity Laplace equation starting from the p-Dirichlet integral.
