A regular at Europe’s largest motorsport show, Coulthard regards
Autosport International as one of the best opportunities of the year to catch up with friends and fans alike.
“I’m
very much looking forward to the show,” said
Coulthard, who will also be meeting fans. “I think it’s an excellent
format and a great opportunity to get close to the fans in a more
relaxed way.
“It’s
quite difficult for fans to get near the drivers at any
motorsport event but at the Autosport International Show, most people
get a chance to meet their favourite drivers and teams. I have to
admit,
I’m also looking forward to it as I will get to catch up with some of
my motorsport pals who I haven’t seen in ages!”
The 13-time F1 Grand Prix winner will take part in the show ahead of starting
his
fourth season with Red Bull Racing, alongside team-mate Mark Webber.
“Autosport, as well as the show, has had a long association with
David,” said Haymarket Exhibitions Group Marketing Manager Nolan O’Connor. “We’re really happy that he’s managed
to find time to come back to the show for yet another year. The fans love seeing him and he’s always very entertaining.”
Other
stars already confirmed to attend the show are: American Le Mans
Series and former F1 driver Allan McNish, 2007 British Touring Car
Championship stars Jason Plato and Matt Neal, World Rally driver Mikko
Hirvonen,
McLaren F1 test driver Gary Paffett and the ITV-F1 crew.
