International ski racers have graced the circuit of the Formula 1 this week, which was holding its famous Monaco Grand Prix from May 24 to 26.
Aleksander Aamodt Kilde came as a guest of the German designer label Boss, which is in a partnership with Aston Martin. Naturally, Kilde brought his fiancรฉ, American ski racer Mikaela Shiffrin as his โplus 1โ to the occasion.
Meanwhile, the honored guest of RedBull Racing was Brazilian-Norwegian ski racer Lucas Pinheiro Braathen, who recently announced his comeback to the FIS World Cup circuit under the Brazilian flag.
It is uplifting to see these elite athletes enjoying a break from training. After some holiday fun during the month of May, most international ski athletes will be returning to on-snow training in the southern hemisphere as well as on European glaciers.
