Bonn, September 21, 2010: As the Official Logistics Partner of Formula 1™, DHL has been supporting the royal league of motorsports for years with logistics solutions, a comprehensive global network as well as fast and reliable services. With the Fastest Lap Trophy, DHL has introduced in 2007 a coveted award for the race driver with the greatest number of fastest laps within one season. From now on, Formula 1™ fans will be even more thoroughly satisfied via DHL: The former Formula 1™ driver and expert in motorsports Christian Danner will report directly for DHL from the race track via Twitter about current events from free practice, qualifying and the race.

In his tweets via http://www.dhl-brandworld.com/danner and www.twitter.com/danner4dhl, Christian Danner asks a competition question about Formula 1™ for each Grand Prix. In this way, all fans have the chance to win fantastic prizes. With the correct answer, premium prizes like Nintendo Wii and the Official Formula 1™ computer game by Codemasters can be won after each racing weekend. And at the season finale, DHL will hold a special highlight. Participants who have, in addition, tipped correctly the driver of the fastest lap during the current GP race day, will be added to a pool from which DHL will raffle two tickets to the final round of the 2010 FIA Formula One Championship™ in Abu Dhabi, the 2010 FORMULA 1 ETIHAD AIRWAYS ABU DHABI GRAND PRIX. Together with Christian Danner, the two winners will get very close to the race and the racing teams of the royal league.

For more than 25 years, DHL has been providing logistics solutions for Formula 1™. Throughout the season, several hundred tons of highly sensitive freight - from cars, engines, equipment and spare parts to fuel and TV equipment- have to be moved between nineteen races on 5 continents.

Speed, precision and teamwork. DHL shares these attributes and the flair of the pit lane exclusively with all racing fans and makes them share the fascination of Formula 1™ even more via http://www.dhl-brandworld.com/danner.
