Sahara Force India team sponsors join forces for the premium cycling brand’s latest race in Brooklyn, New York.
Hype Energy will be fuelling WyndyMilla with its premium energy drinks this year as the F1 sponsor brands work together for the 2018 Red Hook Crit cycling race.
Just like Hype Energy, WyndyMilla is well accustomed to the extremes of Formula 1. This year, they’re taking the precision attitude of the Sahara Force India F1 team to two wheels. They will also be fuelled by the same premium energy drinks that help the team at Force India find that extra gear.
The race will take place this weekend around the streets of Brooklyn, New York. We, Hype Energy will be supporting the girls from start to finish.
RED HOOK CRIT
Since 2008, the annual Red Hook Crit (short for criterium) race has proven to be a highlight of the cycling calendar. The races are fast, action packed and technical. Riders compete on the closed course in separate men’s and women’s races. They are competing against each other and the course in the battle for victory. It’s a high stakes battle where anything less than 100% doesn’t cut it.
MEET THE TEAM
The team WyndyMilla consists of professional cyclists and will be bringing two of its top riders to New York this year.
They’ll be riding with precision engineered, fixed-wheel bikes with no brakes – slowing down isn’t a part of the plan. Every gear change is crucial, every mile must be conquered and every hill must be scaled. Meet the team who can do just that.
