MF1 to participate in Bavaria street racing event
Midland Formula 1 Racing is proud to announce that it will take part in the 2nd annual Bavaria Street Racing road show in Rotterdam, Holland, between 18-20 August, 2006. The three-day event, which drew more than 300,000 spectators last year, will once again feature a number of F1 teams and drivers demonstrating their spectaculatalents and technologies to the public in an urban setting.
MF1 driver Christijan Albers, who drove a Minardi last year at the inaugural event, returns to his home country to blast through the streets of Rotterdam in his M16 and thrill his many Dutch fans. A second Midland driver, TBA, will also participate in the show.
Christijan Albers "I'm very excited to be performing in front of my home fans for the second year in a row. As I told everyone on the team, last year's event was really amazing, so I'm looking forward to showing them the kind of enthusiasm the Dutch people have for motorsport. I encourage everyone who can to come out and see the show -- it will be 'Maximum Attack' all the way!"
Colin Kolles, Managing Director "The team is very excited about coming to Holland. Christijan told us about the huge amount of interest the event generated last year, so we are looking forward to building on that success this year with Christijan behind the wheel once again."
Johnny Herbert, Sporting Relations Manager "Street demos are spectacular events, especially when they're held downtown, in the heart of a big city like Rotterdam. It gives those people who don't normally get the opportunity to visit an F1 event a taste of what it's all about -- the speed, the power, the noise... It should be a lot of fun for everyone involved, and we can't wait to put on a great show for our Dutch fans."
