RUN247 TEAM PRIZE: 2 VIP TICKETS TO THE UK REDBULL AIR RACE
The Red Bull Air Race World Championship is an official World Championship, globally renowned as the fastest and most exhilarating motorsport on the planet. It is a visual spectacle unlike any other. A combination of high speed, low altitude and extreme manoeuvrability make it only accessible to the world's most exceptional pilots. The UK race takes place at Ascot Racecourse on 15th & 16th August 2015.
The Air Race FORBs (or Friends of Red Bull) area is reserved for the VIP guests of Red Bull UK. By creating their own unique experience for its most valued guests, it is widely regarded as the most exclusive and the most impressive area to be in. The outside decking give views of the pilots pulling down the runway and is without doubt one of the best vantage points of the venue. The fine food and complementary drinks ensure guests are fed and watered throughout the course of this spectacular event, and the themed interior brings the event to life in a way only Red Bull can.
