Red Bull F1 car and F-16 Fighting Falcon

[Medic82]

I am a lazy chap, not long ago there was the opening of a new racetrack in Norway. For the occasion they had flown in the Red Bull F1 team as the main attraction and the air force gladly put on a show with its custom painted F-16 since they are celebrating its 100th birthday this year. But it was loads of fun with some of the best drifters from Japan competing with Norwegian drifters, had motorcycle races, stunt show with both a motorcycle and car, it was loads of fun. What wasn't fun was that my memory card for the camera was almost full with pics that I not yet had transferred to my computer so I couldn't delete them and I forgot my spare memory card at home So I needed to be selective with what I should take pictures of and not that disappointed with the outcome. Don't know why the images are so small here on the forum so here is a link to the album with bigger pics

Impressive images!¡! I would have given my eye teeth to be there. Looks like you were in an exclusive area to get those. Do you know who the Red Bull driver was? I would assume (you know what they say about that) that it would be Sébastien Buemi, their third driver.

I am a voluntary medic in a rescue team that only does motorsports, so I am behind the scenes It was really cool to finally see and hear  a F1 car live and I want even more to see a F1 race now. Yes it was Sebastian that was the driver and he loved the track, the cool part is that the team decided on Sunday that they where to stay one more day for practicing and testing the car, and they flew in their own film team so they could make a promo video since the track was so cool and the nature around it since the track is basically in the middle of the woods.. I really hope that they can do a show like this again next year and get even bigger names to come.

Just a quick question about this: How many images did you actually take for this? Are these all of them?
Thanks

Not sure how many pics I took since I'm not at my computer this weekend, but I do have a few more pics that I have not posted.

I would love to see them. I'm a huge F1 fan especially the Red Bull team. Mark Webber is my fav F1 driver, I've been following him since his Jaguar days. I just wish they would do a better paint scheme. The best one they did was the Red Bull Wings for Life at they ran at the British Grand Prix this year. They take pictures of people that have spinal cord injuries and put them on the car.
