Column: Meeting the fans!

The Nuon Nuna 3

It's been pretty busy since the British Grand Prix. Last week I did a number of interviews in the gym, which went good. On Friday I was invited by the University of Delft and Nuon to try the NUON NUNA 3. The Nuna 3 is the Dutch entry for the Solar Challenge in Australia.

Their project is incredible. Those students give up a year of their study to work on this project. The car went really good and I'm sure they can go for the win again in Australia!

But next is the German Grand Prix at Hockenheim! I know the track pretty well. I raced there a number of times when I was racing in the DTM series. It's a really good track and the podium is not unfamiliar to me.

At Hockenheim there are always many Dutch fans spending the night at camping's. On Saturday evening I'll go and visit them at the camping and join them for some fun! I'm already looking forward to meet the fans that support me throughout the year.
