Team owner of Red Bull IceOne Husqvarna Factory Racing, Kimi Räikkönen was cheering his team in Valkenswaard this weekend: “I am very proud of Max, great racing today. His work is very consistent and he has the red plate as proof of it. It was great to see the team here in Valkenswaard, everyone is working very hard for the same goal.” [via iceoneracing]
Prominent visit and mutual respect this afternoon in Valkenswaard as Ferrari F1 star Kimi Räikkonen, hot of finishing 2nd last week in Bahrain, chilled out this afternoon in the relaxing surroundings of the IceOne Husqvarna awning together with ex-Liverpool FC star Sami Hyypiä, Giuseppe Luongo and his charming wife Ursula.
MXGP supremo Luongo, the man who has turned MXGP into a truly global series in recent years, expressed his gratitude to the Finnish F1 champion: “We are delighted that you have shown such interest to support our sport and wish you further success.” Kimi’s IceOne team has even upstaged the Cairoli-Villopoto hype so far this year as Max Nagl has raced the blue-yellow rocket to three wins in the first four GPs.
