RED BULL STOCKHOLM RACE CANCELLED PDF Print E-mail
Friday, 20 June 2008
Red Bull Air Race regrets to announce that the race in Stockholm, scheduled for 5 & 6 July, will not take place.  A late change to the location of the race area in Stockholm impacted the Red Bull Air Race flight operations thus 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.”
