"The decision to approach Nico Hülkeberg and associate our image with the racing driver, allows us to convey to the public the values of our company and the strengths that differentiate GlobeAir from our competitors," says Mauro De Rosa, Chief Marketing Officer at GlobeAir.
"Nico Hülkenberg is a strong and passionate professional. Winning the Le Mans-24 Hours race he proved his talent with an extraordinary performance. In that competition, as in the aviation business, precision and dedication are fundamental strengths necessary to excel. These are precisely the qualities that are embodied in our corporate culture," remarks Bernhard Fragner, CEO of GlobeAir announcing the collaboration.

Adds Mr. Fragner: "We identify in Nico the same passion, punctuality and commitment instilled in GlobeAir and in our brand DNA. He is a perfect fit for the role of ambassador for GlobeAir. We both strive to obtain the best performance in all conditions without ever compromising in safety and in total respect of rules."
