VIP team visit Magny Cours

Published on 29 May 2001 by Verstappen Info Page

We (the VIP team) will travel to Magny Cours tomorrow to be present at Thursday's test. We will meet Jos and the OrangeArrows team but we will also have the chance to see the other teams in action, nearly all teams are present this week. VIP team members Thorsten and Ann Hendriks, who live in the UK will not be joining us. They will be guest at a future test at Silverstone. Jos's management, Huub Rothengatter and Raymond Vermeulen, will be present as well. Two prize winners of previous contests will also join the VIP team.
We hope that we are able to drive the complete journey without receiving a phone call from the circuit, as it happened last year. When we were near Antwerp we were phoned that Jos went off track at high speed and he went for a medical checkup. Luckily Jos was not hurt.
We then decided to go karting, one of the VIP team members, Edgar Kapp, had a very remarkable driving style by sticking out his arm in every corner.
We assume we will be in our hotel near Magny Cours tomorrow evening to be at the circuit on Thursday. We will report the happenings later this week on this news page, including photographs.
