Brazilian driver Antonio Pizzonia will be visiting Malta today instead of German driver Nicki Heidfeld.

The German has apologised for his absence claiming that it was due to the recent incident which prohibited him from driving in Sunday’s Belgian Grand Prix.

It will, therefore, be Antonio Pizzonia to officially launch the BMW’s Kids 4 Kids Charity Event to be held this September and October in Aid of the Ursuline Sisters, St Rita Home, Tarxien. Pizzonia accepted the invitation immediately

The programme of his short visit starts at 11.15 am at the Muscats Motors BMW showroom where the Brazilian driver will be addressing the press, Formula One fans and the general public.
