BMW Sauber Previewed

Since 1994, this season for the first time features a single Formula One race held in Germany - and it is entitled the "European Grand Prix" to blow. Nick Heidfeld and the entire BMW team are excited for their home race on the Nurburgring. Robert Kubica is also certain of a good result for the BMW Sauber F1 Team in the Eifel on July 22.

 

While full on the race is on the schedule in the actual pit lane, fanatics in the BMW Sauber F1 Team Pit Lane Park will have the chance to raise questions to Formula One experts and even try their hand at changing tires as well as refueling. Furthermore, they can clock up some race laps in the Formula One simulator, get the low-down on F1, and see and hold various exhibits that include a Formula One engine.

 

Demonstration drives in the Formula One race car will take place several times a day. This time Jorg Muller - the current FIA World Touring Car Championship leader – is behind the wheel, as well as demo rides in Formula BMW cars. Visiting the high-tech theme park to give interviews and sign autographs are Nick Heidfeld, Robert Kubica and reserve driver Sebastian Vettel.

 

The Pit Lane Park will be set up in zone A7 and will be open daily from Friday to Sunday just like last year. Even without an F1 entry ticket admission is free. The Pit Lane Park will be open from 10 o’clock in the morning to 9 in the evening on Friday, 10 in the morning to 6 in the evening on Saturday, and 11 a.m. to 8.00 p.m. on Sunday. It will be party time in the Pit Lane Park on Saturday night from 7.45 p.m. Media with F1 accreditation are welcome to the BMW M Power Night, which is the highlight of the BMW M cars meeting.

 

Formula BMW Germany will be staging rounds seven and eight as the season's highlight and as part of the support programme for the European Grand Prix. Formula BMW Europe will be launched beginning next season. With five wins in six races, last year's rookie champion Jens Klingmann (Leimen) currently dominates the championship. Marco Wittmann (Markt Erlbach) is leading the rookie rankings.
