FESPA is setting its global print community a new challenge for its 2017’s World Wrap Masters. This year, FESPA has launched the Wrap Masters Design Competition, inviting contestants to create a striking design for a Formula 4S speed boat that will be used by the Haugaard Racing Team in the 2017 World Formula 4 UIM Powerboat Championship.

In order to qualify, participants will need to produce an attention-grabbing design that puts their creative skills to the test and includes the boat number (22), as well as the racing team’s logo and World Wrap Masters sponsor, Hexis’ logo. All entries must be submitted to wrapmasters@fespa.com by Friday 10th March 2017.

Entries will be judged by Formula 4 race boat driver, Sebastian Haugaard, and World Wrap Masters Head Judge, Ole Solskin Ravn. The winning design, which will be announced on Friday 17th March 2017, will be used in the World Wrap Masters Final during FESPA 2017 (8-12 May 2017) in Hamburg, Germany.

The winner will also receive a free trip to Hamburg, where they will have the opportunity to meet driver Sebastian Haugaard in person and see the racing boat being wrapped with their design during FESPA 2017.

The design will be used by Haugaard Racing Team and will adorn the powerboat until the final of the World Formula 4 UIM Powerboat Championship.
