Red Bull Airport World Championship is known as "Air F1". According to the rules of the competition, participants need to pass and complete the competition in a challenging obstacle course in the shortest time. The pilots flew at low altitude in the air, constantly adjusting the plane's posture to cross obstacles, and the speed was extremely fast, making the audience unable to help but hold their breath.
The fastest competition
is known as the world's fastest mechanical sports tournament - Red Bull Aerobatics World Championship (2016 Red Bull Air Race World Championship) kicked off the 2016 season in Abu Dhabi on March 11, conducting a total of eight rounds of competition, and visiting seven countries on three continents.
Red Bull Aerobatics World Championship is a pure flight sports competition presented by the world's top pilots, perfectly combining speed, precision, courage and superb flight technology. Its track is an obstacle course composed of inflatable air piles. Pilots will fly the fastest and most agile light aircraft, racing around the pile at ultra-low altitude, and can fly to 230 miles per hour. At sharp turns, the overload that the pilot must bear can be up to 10G. The 2016 Red Bull Aerobatics World Championship will feature 14 top-notch pilots, including defending champion Nigel Lamb from the UK. They will fly a high-performance aircraft through the "Air Gate" obstacle course at a speed of 370 kilometers per hour at a speed of 15 to 25 meters above the ground.
2016 season first game result was a big surprise. Last year's runner-up Australian Matt Hal is currently ranked No. 1 in the world (champion Paul Bonhomme retired after the 2015 season) in this game, only 2 points were scored. And last year's third place Hannes Arch was also disappointing, when he was disqualified for crossing the safety line. In the end, Nicolas Ivanoff from France was won; German Matthias Dolderer followed closely behind to finish second; and Frenchman François Le Vot won third place. The Americans were both ranked fourth and fifth: Kirby Chambliss and Michael Goulian.
Red Bull Aerobatics World Championships create a perfect destination for flight fans, but even outside the flight stunt arena, fans can enjoy a variety of attractions, activities and experiences. Taking the Abu Dhabi Station on the brilliant blue sea in the Arabian Gulf as an example, flight fans can watch the contestants' every move in the event village specially built on the breakwater of the Seaside Avenue. The area is home to the spectacular skyline of the capital of the UAE, and the competition site is unobstructed, making it an entertainment center suitable for family fun. If visitors want to watch the game up close, they can stroll along the eight-mile pristine coastline of the Esplanade and see the heroic posture of the super pilot soaring in the blue sky.
