| Statement: |
“I have always been interested in motor sports, whether the Formula 1, DTM, or Rallies. Then, when I read the information about the Dunlop Drivers Cup I thought, “This is it,” and applied.
I have already met some super people in the preliminary rounds – there was real “we” feeling.
Now, I am looking forward to the U.S. trip, above all, because I was already in San Diego once, the region is really worth seeing. From a sports perspective, the trip will be a major challenge, because driving on a race track and off-road both have their own individual appeal.” |

| Statement: |
“I always wanted to get my motor sport license. The Dunlop Drivers Cup gave me the perfect opportunity. In order to be able to take part in the off-road course in Dieskau, I even postponed an acting commitment, because I really wanted to be there when Germany’s sportiest drivers were put to the test. Even though I didn’t have any experience in motocross, I still put in a good show and even qualified for the finals in the U.S. In any case, it is going to be a lot of fun.” |
