It looks like Formula 1 driver Nico Rosberg is a loyal BlackBerry user. Here he is seen trucking along with his BlackBerry in hand. Nico drives for the Mercedes GP Formula One team, and this image was snapped during preparations for the Turkish Grand Prix taking place this weekend. We're glad to have him on our team of BlackBerry users, and here's to hoping he isn't a fan of texting while driving :-)
The Canadian Grand Prix is just a couple weeks a way now and our own CrackBerry Kevin will be on location to watch the racing action. I'm sure he'll have his new DSLR fired up to catch every celebrity BlackBerry sighting shot he can snap. Stay tuned for that!

That doesn't look like 9700... its more like storm or 8900.

It looks more like a BlackBerry Curve 8900.

8900 with a track ball wow that must have been slow.

I believe Mercedes Benz was sponsored by Blackberry for a time.

The app works fantastic on my 8530 Curve. Every race I have the big 52" LCD TV tuned to Speed, my laptop logged on to Live Timing and of course the BB also just in case I have to make a trip to the fridge or the can!
