Three Formula 1 drivers have announced that they will attend the La Grande Nuit F1 ball, to be held this Friday, June 10, at the Casino de Montréal.
To be among the other special guests are Jarno Trulli of Team Toyota, who is ranked 3rd going into this weekend's Grand Prix, Olivier Panis, also of Team Toyota, and Patrick Friesacher with the Minardi Team.
"We are extremely pleased that Messrs. Trulli, Panis and Friesacher will be joining us at La Grande Nuit F1," exclaimed Yves Devin, General Manager of the Casino de Montréal. "It is a genuine honour for the Casino to be playing host to such stars of the F1 circuit."
As the grand soirée approaches, the excitement and anticipation is building in leaps and bounds, with other celebrated Formula 1 drivers expected to be added to the distinguished guest list during the days and hours to come.
Yesterday, in fact, the Casino announced that Kimi Raikkonen of Team McLaren-Mercedes would be on hand at the gala evening.
