Kasper Andersen meets Silkeborg's citizens.

Formula Master
Trident Racing flied to Denmark last weekend. The Italian team, instead of contesting a normal weekend, experienced a public showcase, allowing the fans and supporters of Kasper Andersen to get in touch with their local driver`s car and squad. On the fascinating Silkeborg environment, Trident Racing exposed the operation set to join the International Formula Master Championship in 2008, including the Tatuus car set to hit the track this season, and the fully-race dressed driver.
After scoring a huge success in terms of attendance, Trident moved on the local Jyllandsringen track, where Kasper invited 100 people among his sponsors and supporters at the Danish Touring Car Championship round. In the meantime, Trident Racing exposed the 2008 plans, and drawn two invitation tickets to the F.Master round at Monza.
Kasper Andersen
"The last weekend was very important to me. I have to thank Trident Racing in first for giving me the chance to let my sponsors, investors and all my fellow citizens have a close look at the car I drive and at the team I fork for. It was very important for my visibility and to improve the relation with my career`s main supporters. It was great to see the people get close to my car, as many of them had the chance to see an open-wheeler for the first time.
After spending the day of Saturday on the city`s streets, we moved to the Jyllandsringen track where, thanks to my sponsor "Wanted" I was able to reunite all my supporters for a strictly Italian lunch. I believe we did a good job in trying to bring the people closer to what I do, so I count on having even more support for the upcoming season".
