Indianapolis, IN – May 12, 2011 - Before she steps into the cockpit for the 100th Anniversary of the Indianapolis 500, Simona de Silvestro wants to show her fans what life outside the car is like. Her team, HVM Racing, has once again partnered with social media company, Zideo, to produce an insider’s look into de Silvestro’s trip to the Geneva Motor Show and her hometown.

Not only does the new video cover Auto Salon Geneva, but also gives fans a look at de Silvestro’s childhood home and lifestyle in Thun, Switzerland. There, she shows off her favorite car and talks about her goals for the 2011 season.

“I had a lot of fun making this video,” said de Silvestro. “The show was absolutely amazing and I even got to meet Micheline Calmy-Rey (president of the Swiss Confederation). This video, along with the other social media avenues we’re exploring at HVM, is what sets us apart from some of the other teams. It’s about success on the track and for our partners.”

Fans can see the video, and check out the series of Join the Ride videos, on de Silvestro’s website, www.SimonaDeSilvestro.com.
