"GOODBYE" MAURO RAVENNA
F1H2O

ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates – Friday, May 28, 2010 – We have received the terrible news today that Mauro Ravenna has lost his life today after being gravely injured from an automobile accident in Cuba fifty days ago.

He was a major contributor and sponsor to the sport of the UIM Aquabike for the past 15 years improving its image and making the sport more visable around the world in the process. His last race was the Karujet in Guadeloupe in March of this year.

There, at the prize giving ceremony in front of more than 20,000 people he ignited the audience with a speech that only he alone could deliver leaving the fans wanting for more. The World Championship series will go on without him this next week at Port Vecchio. He was loved by everyone and especially by his pilots who raced for him on the UIM Aquabike tour. He will be sorely missed!

All F1H2O family grieving for the demise of Mauro Ravenna on the 27th of May 2010.
