In beautiful Valencia on the Spanish East Coast, the international press got treated to a very special introduction to the new Volkswagen Polo GTI on the Valencia Racetrack Ricardo Tormo and I had the pleasure of being the moderator for the daily press conference.

Directed by the wonderful Ulrike Plesser, Volkswagen created an exciting new format for their press conference with sophisticated animations, detailing the technical highlights of this new car. Interviewing the engineers responsible for the development of the new suspension and engine highlights was only part of the exciting experience, talking to racing legend Hans-Joachim “Strietzel” Stuck on the stage was definitely my personal highlight.
