Premier1 Grand Prix - New Website
Premier1 Grand Prix launches new website www.premier1grandprix.com Zurich, 03 October 2001: Following the media conference in Britain last Thursday (27 September 2001) announcing the partnership between Premier1 and Leeds United Football Club, Premier1 Grand Prix today launches its Official Internet Website. The website – www.premier1grandprix.com – offers on-line users a wealth of information on the new Premier1 Grand Prix race series – an eagerly anticipated new motor sport series for powerful Formula1-style racing cars representing many of the world’s top football clubs. The championship is scheduled to start immediately after next year’s FIFA World Cup Finals and the Official Premier1 Website will feature regular news, reports and features in the build-up to the opening race in July 2002. The introduction of such an innovative and far-reaching race series also offers many exciting and hitherto untapped opportunities for enterprising business partnerships. Information on these commercial openings is also available to interested parties on the Official Premier1 Website. Two of Europe’s most famous football clubs – Benfica and Leeds United – have already confirmed their participation in Premier1 Grand Prix and a further 22 clubs will be announcing their involvement in the coming weeks and months. Once again, all information will be available on the Official Premier1 Website as the news breaks. In total the series will feature 24 identically prepared 750bhp single-seater racing cars, each liveried in the evocative colours of one of the world's leading football clubs. The cars, which will compete on many of the world’s premier race circuits, will have comparable performance to Formula1 and will race on slick racing tyres. New technologies to enhance the performance and guarantee spectacular action will be introduced to all cars at the start of each season. High-resolution images and further details are now available on www.premier1grandprix.com – the Official Premier1 Website that will be watched closely by motor sport and football fans as well as the entire motor sport industry. ends For a hard copy of this press release please open the attached PDF file with Acrobat Reader and select print from the menu ------------------------------------------------------------- John Sharp, MPA Media, 19 Heathmans Road, London, SW6 4TJ, UK Tel: +44 (0)20 7384 2121 Fax: +44 (0)20 7371 0178 Mobile: +44 (0)7887 758 938 This message is intended for the named recipient only.
