Beauty Queen's Day-Job is Town Planner

28 November 2008 - 11:00am

A town planner from Brisbane, Australia, has been crowned the beauty-queen face of an annual open-air motor racing event.

"Marieka Van Den Bergh is the 2008 Bartercard Miss Indy. The 22-year-old blonde beauty from Belmont, Brisbane, was crowned last night before hundreds of Nikon Indy 300 VIPs at the Indy Gala Ball at Conrad Jupiters Casino."

"Marieka instantly became the new face of the Nikon Indy 300 and an ambassador for naming sponsor Bartercard for the next 12 months."
