Bluewin says goodbye to Tom Lüthi

The Internet provider Bluewin is withdrawing as
main sponsor of 125cc world champion Tom Lüthi. The end of the year
expiring contract will not be extended. In a statement from
Bluewin says that the realignment of the brand under the umbrella of
Swisscom Fixnet has led to a change in sponsorship strategy.
The focus is on a national orientation and product orientation.
This is why the company's involvement in motor racing is coming to an end.
Bluewin has supported the young motorcycle racer since 2003, when he
was still a youngster. According to Daniel M. Epp, owner of the Elit team,
for which Lüthi rides, the coming season is already financed. About
The new partners are to be informed in the near future. According to a report
of the commuter newspaper 20 Minuten on Monday, Epp went far
advanced talks with the Lucerne-based dairy group Emmi. The SDA
mentions the online platform Interwetten.com as a possible co-sponsor.
