Winner of Rio de Janeiro Red Bull Air Race

Red Bull Air RaceThe Red Bull Air Race World Series, established in 2003 and created by Red Bull, is an international series of air races with the participation of the world's most skilled pilots, in which competitors have to navigate a challenging obstacle course in the sky, in the fastest possible time. Pilots fly individually against the clock and have to complete tight turns through a slalom course consisting of specially designed pylons, known as "air gates".

British pilot Paul Bonhomme won this year's race and this is a video of him winning the race.

I've been gathering all the pictures, videos, and information I can find about the Red Bull Air Race in Rio, and putting them all up here:

Towards the bottom of the page are the videos of the race itself. There is one video of each of the top three runs, including a video of Bonhomme's winning flight.

Enjoy! And please let me know if there are any good pictures/video out there that I may have missed!
