Red Bull Air Racing is back

[markis10]

No Australian venue, with KL being the closest, and it appears no one has put up their room rates yet!

In addition to Bonhomme, Goulian, and Chambliss, other pilots on the 2014 roster are Hannes Arch, Peter Besenyei, Martin Sonka, Nicolas Ivanoff, Matt Hall, Nigel Lamb, Yoshihide Muroya, Matthias Dolderer, and Pete McLeod.


The 2014 season kicks off March 1 in Abu Dhabi and runs through November where it ends in China. Other stops include Putrajaya, Malaysia; Gdynia, Poland; Ascot, United Kingdom, Dallas/Fort Worth, and Las Vegas. Ticket information is not available for all locations, but Red Bull’s website said tickets will be available for Dallas/Fort Worth, Ascot, and Putrajaya starting Nov. 1 and China starting Dec. 1 (although a venue has yet to be announced).

Shame it's not coming back to Perth. The airstrip at Langley Park right in the CBD was a unique feature - and right outside my window. Langley Park was also the site for the WRC Rallye Australia for many years until the state government withdrew its subsidy.

Malaysia is the next best. For me in Brisbane it may cost less to go to KL than Perth!

Does anyone know the layout of the circuit in Putrajaya, and if it is possible to get a hotel that actually overlooks the circuit?
