Red Bull Air Race World Championship (2010)

Soaring through the skies with breathtaking agility, the Red Bull Air Race World Championship, launched in 2003, is an exhilarating international spectacle of air races. The series showcases pilots from around the globe, each competing against time and gravity as they navigate a demanding labyrinth of "Air Gates" – towering pylons that make up the slalom course. These races often unfold over sparking city waters, rugged airfields, or awe-inspiring natural wonders, creating a dramatic backdrop for the gravity-defying action. Each race weekend unfolds in two adrenaline-fueled days: an initial qualifying day followed by heart-stopping knockout finals. It's not just about the thrill of the race; a smorgasbord of show flights also accompanies the main event, making each gathering a grand aerial fiesta. These events, drawing massive crowds, are broadcast live and taped across the world, making every heart-pounding turn and tight maneuver a shared global experience. The stakes are high. The top nine finishers at each venue are awarded World Championship points, ultimately leading to the crowning of the Red Bull Air Race World Champion. The past has seen American pilots like Mike Mangold and Kirby Chambliss, and Austria's Hannes Arch claim victory. The 2010 season introduces four ace pilots from Canada, Japan, Australia, and Germany, all vying for the coveted title. Buckle up and prepare for a high-flying adventure as they go propeller to propeller in the Red Bull Air Race World Championship.
