BMW Sauber to give F1 demo at Brands Hatch

The BMW Sauber F1 team will travel to Brands Hatch at the end of the month for some special demonstraiton laps around the Brands Hatch track at the end of July. During the WTCC weekend 26-27 July Britain's Andy Priaulx will be driving the BMW Sauber F1 car.

Priaulx will also be racing the BMW 320si race car that weekend as the reining WTCC champion defends his title at Brands Hatch. He is looking forward to driving both vehicles in front of his home fans: "The WTCC at Brands Hatch promises to be another great weekend. It's always a highlight for me to race in front of my home crowd and I'm looking forward to giving the fans something to cheer about, both in the WTCC races and the F1 car. This is an amazing time for the BMW Sauber F1 Team and to have the chance to show the fans an F1 car at Brands Hatch is a real treat for me and them. The noise will be phenomenal and it promises to be a real spectacle."

MotorSport Vision's Chief Executive, Jonathan Palmer, added: "We're thrilled that BMW has chosen Brands Hatch to showcase their Formula One car. The sheer speed, sight and particularly sound of a current top F1 car will be quite amazing and undoubtedly draw a huge crowd on this unique occasion."

The F1 car demonstration laps will take place during the lunch break on both days of the event.
