groeten uit .... champcar
Door Allard Kalff, maandag 29 januari om 11 38
Bart Rietbergen is de promotor van de champcar race in Assen. Hij heeft een slecht geheugen. De laatste GP F1 in Nederland was geen 30 jaar terug. Het was 1985. Ook gaat hij heel makkelijk voorbij aan het enorme succes van de A1GP race op zandvoort in 2006, in 2007 staat de race voor het laatste weekend in september. Tevens geeft zijn tweede uitspraak weer dat Doornbos een fijne keuze voor hem is.
Q. The attraction is the cars are similar to Formula 1, do you see that
there could be some backlash on that, that they may perceive that
negatively?
BART RIETBERGEN: I don't think that at all. In fact, the last Formula 1 race
we had in Holland was some 30 years ago so it's quite a big attraction for
people to see the similar cars on their home ground.
Q. There have been some rumors in the Dutch media that Jos Verstappen may
drive in Champ Car. Can you comment on that and if he does, what would that
do for your races?
BART RIETBERGEN: I had read the same comments that you have seen. So that's
all I know about it. I do know that there are a few Dutch drivers, top
drivers that are all talking to various teams. For us, it doesn't matter who
it is as long as there is one Dutch top driver; that will help tremendously.
