| - Sigfried Reijnold Hella was an open-wheel racing driver hailing from Westria, driving in ICARA. His career has been marked by ups and downs. Initially a highly-regarded Schnysna Junior Program driver, expectations were high for him to succeed, but instead Hella's career has to be considered more that of a "journeyman". To this day, he is the only driver ever to compete for ALL four major Realm ICARA teams, Schnysna, Kunghai, Satosan and Saqlain, a feat which may never be matched.

| - Sigfried Reijnold Hella was an open-wheel racing driver hailing from Westria, driving in ICARA. His career has been marked by ups and downs. Initially a highly-regarded Schnysna Junior Program driver, expectations were high for him to succeed, but instead Hella's career has to be considered more that of a "journeyman". Although he had several opportunities to drive with top teams, he never quite managed to convince, and could not achieve the big breakthrough so may were waiting and hoping for, even though he did place in the top-10 in the championship standings a couple of times. Despite driving for Schnysna and Kunghai among others, ironically his first win came for the underdog "cult" team Marlene Foth, where he spent 2 seasons with good results, which earned him a 4-season stint with the Zartanian Parmiyon team, where he actually mounted a title challenge in his first season, finishing 3rd in the standings. However, he would not place in the top-10 again after that. At the end of his career, which spanned 363 races in total, his ICARA wins count totalled a meager 4 victories. He would retire from ICARA racing in 313AP, released from Parmiyon after the 312AP season, and failing to secure a full-season ride, even though he took the wheel part-time for two major teams as substitute driver. He continues his career in endurance racing, and every so often is speculated to return as a temporary substitute driver should an injury occur in ICARA, but so far he has not participated in any ICARA race since 313AP. To this day, he is the only driver ever to compete for ALL four major Realm ICARA teams, Schnysna, Kunghai, Satosan and Saqlain, a feat which may never be matched.
