ROTTERDAM –
One of the most legendary teams from the history of Formula 1 is coming to
Rotterdam! With the help of Santander Consumer Finance Benelux B.V. Scuderia
Ferrari will give appearance to the tenth edition of this annual event in the
city centre on 31st August 2014.
The organisation of VKV City Racing has big
plans for this anniversary edition of
the unique event in the heart of Rotterdam.
With Scuderia Ferrari and Kimi Räikkönen they have managed to get a fantastic name to be present, with thanks to the big efforts of teamsponsor
Santander. None other than former World Champion Kimi Räikkönen is coming to
visit the port town to offer the fans a performance at the wheel of a F10.
Scuderia Ferrari does hardly need any introduction: from the first day of Grand Prix-racing the legendary Italian brand has been at the start. This resulted in thirty-one titles (sixteen Constructors’ and fifteen Drivers’) and over 200 victories in more than 870 races. A statistic that few can match. With Kimi Räikkönen an absolute top driver will be coming to Rotterdam. The Fin was at the start of more than 200 Grands Prix, was the first at the meet twenty times and won the world title in season 2007 with Scuderia Ferrari.
‘It is the first time that Santander takes
Scuderia Ferrari to VKV City Racing Rotterdam with the official driver Kimi
Räikkönen. Few people know that Kimi has lived in Rotterdam for a while at the
beginning of his career. The real fans
will enjoy themselves, for sure! ‘’says organisor Robert Heilbron.
Also Michel Blom, Head of Marketing Benelux, is very pleased: “Santander works with Scuderia Ferrari for more than five years, and I am extremely happy that we managed to get the Formula 1 team, with top driver Kimi Räikkönen to the Netherlands to take part in the 10th edition of VKV City Racing. Therefore, we encourage everyone to come to this fantastic event and feel this unique experience first-hand”.
