The BMW Sauber F1 Team looks forward with heightened anticipation to its home race, the European Grand Prix at the Nürburgring next weekend but before the fifth race of the 2006 FIA Formula One World Championship gets underway, there are a number of items on the agenda to be ticked off, the first being the BMW Sauber F1 Team Pit Lane Park.

This exciting new vision will be opened this week and fans will be offered taxi rides around the grand prix circuit courtesy of F1 drivers…

“We’ve got something special lined up for the Nürburgring: the BMW Sauber F1 Team Pit Lane Park will be celebrating its debut there,” said Mario Theissen, BMW Motorsport director. “You could say this high-tech adventure park brings a piece of the pit lane right to the spectators: it’s an adventure complex where fans can experience Formula One close at hand, and it’s going to be something very special – something fans have never seen before in F1.”

Another exciting item on the schedule is Formula BMW German, which will once again turn the spotlight on its young racing talent under the gaze of their F1 heroes.
