Munich. Nov 13 2014 The BMW Welt was the scene of the launch of the new BMW Wintersport season. A press conference was held to announce the even stronger BMW Wintersport commitment, which features numerous new and extended partnerships.

The ever-popular sport of biathlon will be given a new look with title sponsor BMW: as of this season, the crystal balls awarded to the best biathletes in the world will be won at the BMW IBU Biathlon World Cup. The technological partnership with the German Bobsleigh, Luge, and Skeleton Federation (BSD) has been running for several years already and has proven to be a real success story – and one which is set to continue this winter. New to the commitment is the partnership with the International Bobsleigh and Skeleton Federation (FIBT), the highlight of which will be the 2015 BMW FIBT Bob & Skeleton World Championship in Winterberg. As Official Partner of the International Luge Federation FIL, BMW is also taking its commitment to luge to a new level.
