Rouen 24 start tomorrow 14.00!

Today the 46th edition of the 24h de Rouen will start. I was in the lineup, but comitments have forced me to make priority. I will meet the council of the UIM and President Dr Raffaele Chiulli in Stockholm. Together we will sign the agreement on a united powerboat family in Norway.

BUT, The F2boat.com team is represented by JB Thomas, Domenick Thomas and Baptiste Philippe.

 The race will start @ 14 today, and we will do our best to give an update every 1/2 – to 1 hour regarding the event.

Good and Bad news..

Today I have to share a good mix of good and bad news with you. 

The bad news is, I will not race in Rouen. I have to attend a meeting, and this has priority over my racing. . However, my team will race. F2boat.com will participate with JB Thomas, Baptiste and Domenick. A very very strong team. 

We will update around the clock, and keep the best update witch is every done from a team racing in Rouen. 

So, the good news. Well, I guess you already figured out by looking at my photo that we have once again a new record on the F2boat.com site. 154 564 uniqe visitors is fantastic. For a small sport like powerboating, F2boat.com is the place to be promoted :)

Well, thats it for today folks, I have to prepare for a busy weekend. 

BTW, what is your plan?

Torbjørn og Gro Krin: Vi føler med deg Frode. Livet er uretferdig.

Carl: OMG, just read from the Jelfs! I am so sorry for your loss Frode, very shocked and upset. Carl.

the Morses: Frode, Our thoughts are with you at this sad and difficult time. Adrian, Ruth and Ben Morse.

Pelle Larsson: Frode, Vet inte riktigt vad jag ska säga... Jag tänker på dig.Jag finns här för dig.

Johan Österberg: Vi tänker på dig.....

Modris: :(... We are with you my friend! ...

Leif Ahlborg: Finally it seems, that drivers now start discussing the F2 situation I can tell you all, that at the first meeting I had with UIM representatives a few years ago in Colonne regarding F2, Frohling, Regine, Kimmon and Ugur Isik, I did present my own idea for the F2 future. Let´s do a Series in Europe, Arab countries, USA, South Africa, Australia aso. Then organising a Grand Final week" somewhere in the world. Moving around from year to year. All series qualifying drivers for the Grand Final in ex. Paris, London, Riga, Bay City or Abu Dhabi. We should easy have some 30-40 drivers fighting for the great Title. Do not know if this is a good idea at this very moment, but I am ready to wake this up again if of interest. Boats should remain at the drivers work shop most time of the year. Avasilable for development between the regional races. Best regards Leif Ahlborg

Modris: "So, I strongly believe it will be possible for UIM to run Series in the future" - I agree with you for 100% Erik. Let's hope... Modris

Erik"Propeye" Braaten: I have a strong feeling that our UIM president is working with some interesting solutions. The problem is the way the organization is "constructed"as today it must be an impossible task to have any kind of changes and it will take years if ever, and in the meantime the sport will suffer and will be starving, possibly even worse. UIM is not a professional organization but still have to deal with professionals to sign contracts and later following it up to ensure themselves that contracts and agreements are working. It is working with F1 quite well today. But the big problem is that the sport has been brought to far away places and there it has been presented more or less as a show and when they are gone,nothing happens. The Sport itself is suffering and the rest of the world being left in the shadow. For many years I have tried to convince my own National Authority that UIM must have its own Sport Office with its own management and director. with professional knowledge and experience This must be a most important part in a different,new and modern organization prepared and ready to deal with all kinds of agreements and contracts. They will be able to offer possible sponsors with deals never seen before covering the whole world and assisting our NAs with economical support and at the same time delivering a set of Rules, ByLaws and Statues that are easy to understand and easy to follow,both for the countries and the drivers. Rules that make it possible both for Europe and the US to participate in each other races. So, I strongly believe it will be possible for UIM to run Series in the future, but not with the same structure as today. UIM today is totally outdated.That`s why their National Authorities are unhappy and sleeping. Let`s hope someone is seeing the possibilities and not only the problems and soon will take the necessary steps to have it rolling. May be Rafaelle Chiulli is our man. I really do not know, I have a feeling that he is quite lonesome up there. There are lots of fighting to be done I`m afraid. Let`s hope for the best, it will be a long way to go for all of us. Erik the Propeye.
