It was a witty opening of this year's HUSUM Wind today. Instead of the usual glossy film, this year there was a show symbolizing the variety of 'Wind' in dance - followed by a greeting from former Formula 1 world champion Nico Rosberg, who now drives a hydrogen car instead of spirit gulping race cars. But - he was only connected online and not live on the spot...
