  | BMW Sauber fan awarded with an M6 after racing... By BMW Sauber F1 Team - April 28 2007 Last week, the Intel Racing Tour 2006/07 closed with an exciting final in Munich. At the end of the exciting event series, which was initiated by the Corporate Partner of the BMW Sauber F1 Team, the lucky winner was able to collect the main prize, a BMW M6. Over the past months, the Intel Racing Tour had visited over 30 venues. Each time, the Formula One fans had the opportunity to prove their driving skills on a virtual race track. More than 25,000 participants competed against each other in a professional Formula One simulation, a version of the computer game "Live for Speed", which was specifically reprogrammed for the BMW Sauber F1 Team. Ten participants qualified for the grand season finale in Munich. However, the computer race drivers were obviously a great deal more nervous than in the qualification races, since their efforts in the simulator were now observed by BMW Motorsport Director Mario Theissen, Nick Heidfeld and Sebastian Vettel. Additionally, the competition featured a spectacular main prize, a BMW M6. The unusual circumstances did not seem to distract one of the competing participants: Danny Engels. Following successful practice and qualifying sessions, the youngster was able to leave his competitors behind in the 15-lap final race, despite the fact that one of the contestants managed to catch up with him towards the end. Just like a professional racing driver, he was able to fend off the attacks and crossed the line in first place. Shortly afterwards Nick Heidfeld handed over the prize, the keys for the BMW M6. Mario Theissen congratulated the winner and commented later: "Computer games are a world of their own. Today we saw how exciting they can be. Our winner managed to outclass countless competitors - and completely deserved to win the BMW M6 after this performance."
