I love Cael Phillip in is racing uniform, he seems so happy!
 
To me the prince looks very cocky and self-satisfied.
I haven´t found any results, or was it a test race?

Nice Pictures Of Prince Carl Philip , He Looks Nice Fresh & Happy , Thank you iceflower .
 
Carl Philip is racing this year in Swedish GT together with Jan ”Flash” Nilsson in a BMW M3 GT4. He is racing this weekend in Karlskoga.
Carl Philip said: There is a big step, of course, but it feels good and fun to drive Swedish GT. The new car does require a shift in driving technique and we have only had time to test twice. But after another, although rainy, running through Gelleråsen yesterday, I start getting a grip of the car.

Carl Philip was fourth at the qualification of the GTB-class at the swedish GT in Karlskoga today.

At the race Carl Philip and Jan "Flash" Nilsson came second, the race lasts an hour and they switch drivers once during the race.
Carl Philip was happy and said that this was the first time at the podium, but hopefully not the last.

Jan "Flash" Nilsson drove the first 25 minutes although he has never driven this car before. Carl Philip drove the rest 35 minutes. Flash said that he needed 6-7 laps to get going and he tried to save the tyres for Carl Philip. Carl Philip said that Flash gave him a good start.

I just love Prince Carl Philip and he certainly does enjoy his motor racing. Wonderful support for the Swedish GT.
 
Would love to see him race sometime. Maybe someday he can come to the United States and race in the Rolex 24 hour at Daytona International Speedway.
 
He looks to her and she smile for camera...she is ...so Sofia!

And as usual, Sofia Hellqvist appears to have eyes only for the camera lens.

And as usual all you people are trying to find faults in her every behavior - if she would have looked at carl philip you would have said that she was rude not to look at the camera... :whistling: Let´s give the girl a break.
 
She looks nice and sympathic in that pic. I don't see anything wrong with her behavior. And he's very obviously in love with her by the way he looks at her. So why everyone always feels the need to slap them verbally is completely beyond me.

If she wants to be taken seriously, why not do something serious, for example take some university courses in subjects like Swedish and European history, political science, social science or other subjects that would help her in her supposed role as a future royal spouse and her husband's helpmate.

I agree.
Honestly, I don't think she has the mental capacity to take those courses. I don't see her trying to better herself intellectually. She seems to be all about climbing the social ladder...
 
Carl Philip drove his first test session ever at Anderstorp Raceway today, and drove off. His car was so damaged that he and Jan "Flash" Nilsson are not participating in this weekend's Swedish GT race at Anderstorp. It is unclear if they have enough time to repair to the next race at the Gothenburg City Arena.
- Prince Carl Philip escaped unharmed, but there came damage to the car that takes a long time to repair, says John Witty, Team Manager for Flash Engineering.

Two people in Gnosjö saw on Wednesday last week a man walking alone in the darkness along the road 151. They thought he looked like he could need some help. When they rolled down the window to provide a lift, they received a shock. The wandering man was none other than prince Carl Philip, all alone with no security guards. The prince had jumped off the train in Gnosjö, waiting to be picked up by some acquaintances, and then go on to his race in Anderstorp. When the friends were late, Carl Philip decided to walk the road 151 north, Värnämo Nyheter tells. The prince told to those surprised motoriststhat he was out of danger and that he was waiting for his friends.
- He got off the train but his transportation seems to have been late. I do not think, however, that he lifted, the transportation came probably in the end, said Bertil Ternert to Aftonbladet.

An unusually relaxed and open, Prince Carl Philip speaks out about his passion for racing.
- This is one of the most enjoyable things, but obviously I want to win also.
Sofia Hellqvist was also waited to arrive to Gothenburg.
