This weekend the Swiss Grand Prix takes place at Lostallo and Serpent will send a top line up of drivers to the event.

Probably the biggest r/c track on the planet, Lostallo hosts this year's EFRA European 1:8 Championships in July and this weekend's GP will give teams and drivers the prefect opportunity to make preparations for the week long Euro event.


Heading Serpent's entry for the GP is multiple European Champion Michael Salven.  The man who created the Serpent 960, which is the reigning European Champion, Michael is joined by an impressive young line up of National Champions.

Representing the Serpent factory at the event is current Spanish National Champion & SDD team member Oscar Cabezas who is joined by Belgian Champion Steven Cuypers and the on form Swiss National Champion Markus Geisendorf who knows the track very well.

In addition to the factory team line up Serpent will be represented by two quick National team drivers.  Representing Team Serpent Netherlands John Ermen dominated the opening round of the Dutch Championship and is sure to be quick.  Making the trip from Ireland Clive Connolly will represent Team Serpent Ireland with his 960.

The GP gets underway with official practice on Friday.
