Bentley to Host Ice Driving Event in Finland with Continental GTs

Bentley is hosting an event it calls Power on Ice throughout February on a course on the frozen Baltic sea out of ice and snow in the same place where rally legend Juha Kankkunen posted a world speed record on ice of 205.48mph in a Bentley Continental Supersports.

“Power on Ice mixes the pure exhilaration of slaloming a Bentley supercar on a purpose-built course or taking a spin around a ‘figure of eight’ track, with the opportunity to acquire advanced techniques from a personal instructor, that will enable drivers to handle their cars with confidence even in the harshest weather conditions,” said the events head instructor Peter Barnes explains.

There are six sessions throughout February each lasting 3 days. It costs between €8,690 and €10,490 per person depending on desired accommodations. Participants will stay at the Ruka Peak Hotel in northeastern Finland. It is 60km south of the arctic circle and 40km west of the Russian border.
