Contest sees AirAsia catch Grand Prix fever

07 April 2009

AirAsia GP Challenge first leg contest winners strike a pose with Kazuki Nakajima (JPN) Williams, AirAsia Group CEO Dato' Sri Tony Fernandes and Nico Rosberg (GER) Williams in front of the AT&T Williams team's garages, at the Sepang F1 circuit.




An online contest launched last month by AirAsia is set to give winners the chance to see five Formula One Grand Prix race legs in Asia and Europe.

The low-cost airline kicked off the AirAsia GP Challenge on March 13 with the tagline ‘Have You Flown AirAsia to a GP Lately?’.

Winners will be presented with two grandstand tickets for the race weekend for each Grand Prix leg and given an exclusive tour of the AT&T Williams team’s race garage.

The first group of contest winners attended the Sepang F1 circuit and got a photo-op with AT&T Williams driver Nico Rosberg, Kazuki Nakajima, AirAsia Group CEO Dato’ Sri Tony Fernandes and the team’s crew.

“We would like to congratulate the first leg winners, and hopefully they could derive positive inspirations of their own from this experience” said AirAsia Group CEO Dato’ Sri Tony Fernandes.

AirAsia flies to Grand Prix venues in Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, China and Europe. It also connects to Australia’s major destinations including the Gold Coast, Perth and Melbourne which is also a venue on the F1 calendar.
