Velocity is a proud sponsor of our friend David Richert and Richert Racing. Last year, we had the opportunity to work with David, developing his brand, logo, website, and sponsorship packaging.

A few months back, David dropped by the office and the Velocity crew had the chance to sign his helmet and wish him luck before starting his tour of Italy in the Formula Renault Italia Championship in Imola. As the only Canadian among 25 international drivers, David finished 16th despite a considerable number of setbacks.

David took a short break from speeding through the green hills and valleys of Bologna just long enough to appear on the cover of Winnipeg Men this month, with photos by another longtime friend and collaborator of ours, Jerry Grajewski of Grajewski Fotograph Inc.  A great article by David Schmeichel, which digs into Richert’s past and his quest to position himself as Canada’s preeminent racer.

As he returns to Italy this month with Team Torino Motorsport at the Misano World Circuit, Velocity wishes David good luck, and good times! Voler Bene! Buona Fortuna!
