Corinthians Revealed

29/02/2008

Here are some exclusive pics of the Corinthians’ Superleague Formula entry with the club’s players yesterday.

While Waverton put himself forward as the club’s safest pair of hands, Everton Ribeiro was first to get in the drivers’ seat following the car’s unveiling by coach Mano Menezes and club captain, William.

The car is now all set to be revealed to the media in about 30 minutes and then, most importantly, to the fans before the game against arch-rivals and fellow São Paulo club, Palmeiras on Sunday.

“Since the announcement of Corinthians joining the Superleague Formula championship, our fans have been eagerly awaiting the opportunity to see the car for the first time,” says Andrés Sanchez, Corinthians chairman.

“Sunday will be a great opportunity to see the black and white colours on this beautiful car. The people of São Paulo passionately follow both football and motorsport – this is now a beautiful moment for them.

“We can’t wait to see our car doing battle with some of the biggest names in international football. We not only want to beat our rivals from Rio, but also ensure Corinthians are battling for the championship against the other great clubs from around the world.”
