A number of VIP guests were on hand during Valkenswaard’s second round of the 2011 FIM Motocross World Championship last weekend in the Netherlands, including 2007 Formula One World Champion Kimi Räikkönen.

Räikkönen took time out to meet Youthstream president Giuseppe Luongo on Easter Monday at Valkenswaard, this season fielding the ICE1RACING Team with Toni Eriksson and Ludde Södenberg as the official riders in the MX1 and MX2 classes.

Räikkönen, who is now racing the World Rally Championship and in May will enter NASCAR in the U.S, decided to attend the second Grand Prix of the season to spend some time with his MX team and give some good pieces of advice to his riders.

Räikkönen counts with the experience of seven times Enduro World Champion Kari Tiainen, who shares his long experienced career with his young riders developing his role as team manager.

Sami Hyypiä, football defender of Bayer Leverkusen and former player of Liverpool, with whom he won the UEFA Super Cup in 2001 and 2005 and the Champions League in 2005, also visited the Grand Prix of the Netherlands.

And Keith Flint, the singer of the well-known group Prodigy, met Luongo at the VIP Pit Lounge at the GP. The British singer admitted that he is a motorcycle fan and he enjoyed the experience of watching the best motocrossers in the world.
