Audi Night: Traditional start to the ski-race weekend on the Hahnenkamm

Before the British Lebanese singer delighted the audience with his hits, about 370 guests listened to one of the true stars of the weekend: the ski racer Felix Neureuther talked about his experiences of competing in Kitzbühel – and his victory in the slalom last year. Alongside hosts Rupert Stadler, Chairman of the Board of Management of AUDI AG, and Luca de Meo, Member of the Board of Management for Marketing and Sales at AUDI AG, many prominent guests from the business world, sports and show biz were among the audience.

More skiing stars, Maria Höfl-Riesch, Martina Ertl-Renz and Hansi Hinterseer, also attended the Audi Night. They were joined by Franz Beckenbauer, soccer world champion Philipp Lahm and the British singer Ellie Goulding. The world of motor sports was represented by the winning Audi Le Mans team with André Lotterer, Benoît Tréluyer and Marcel Fässler as well as by the Audi DTM drivers Timo Scheider and Mattias Ekström.

At the red-carpet reception Audi, this year a partner of the Hahnenkamm race for the 15th time, showed its own sporting qualities. In the “Home of quattro” guests were treated to a sight of the new Audi Q7*, which celebrated its world premiere on 12 January at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit.
