EspañolRed Bull Air Race Qualification Camp 2008 in Spain
Title:
Red Bull Air Race Qualification Camp 2008 in Spain
Description:
Five young pilots from around the world who successfully completed a week of rigorous training and testing at the Red Bull Air Race Qualification Camp in Spain were awarded the coveted 'Super Licence', the essential document needed for entry into the race. Australia's Matt Hall (37), Canada's Pete McLeod (24), France's Francois Le Vot (38), Germany's Matthias Dolderer (38) and Japan's Yoshihide Muroya (35) all passed the tests with flying colours and were delighted to take home with them their newly acquired 'licence to fly'. It will be decided at a later date if any or how many rookies from the crop of pilots will get the chance to compete in the 2009 Red Bull Air Race World Championship. "I knew that the pilots were all at a very high level going into the camp because we've been working with them in training for the last year," said Red Bull Air Race Aviation Director Heinz Moeller after the camp in Casarrubios outside Madrid wrapped up. "But I was truly amazed that so many by far exceeded expectations. We were all positively surprised how concentrated they were, how well they performed in all areas and how well they took the critiques on board. Their skill level is so high that they could all step up into the race without any problem whatsoever. It's truly an impressive bunch." The 'Super Licence' is no guarantee that they will participate in next year's World Championship but it is a foot in the door. "By getting the Super Licence they are on standby and have to be 'race ready' within two weeks if required," Moeller said. http://www.redbullairrace.com

But everything turned out differently! It wasn't a Brit who won, but an American: Kirby Chambliss - Red Bull Air Race World Champion 2006 (United States of America). The other pilots had difficulties with the track and the heavy winds and sliced lots of pylons. Bad for them, good for Chambliss.
