RedBull AirRace 2008 - STOCKHOLM RACE - CANCELLED


STOCKHOLM RACE CANCELLED
Red Bull Air Race announced that the race in Stockholm, scheduled for today 5 and tomorrow 6 July, will not take place.
Because of the late change of the location of the race area in Stockholm impacted the Red Bull Air Race flight operations, compromising the safety and quality of the race. Despite all efforts to ensure the race would go ahead, Red Bull Air Race has made the decision to withdraw the application.
Bernd Loidl, CEO of Red Bull Air Race GmbH, was quick to express his disappointment that the people of Stockholm will be denied the chance to see the most exciting motorsport in the world saying: “Safety is paramount for an event of this scale and we are proud of our strong safety standards and track record of 33 successful races around the world. We really regret our decision to cancel the Stockholm race and will make every effort to replace it later in the season.”

See you in the next race, in ROTTERDAM 19th and 20th july
