ITALIARACING.Net - News WTCC ITALIARACING.net - News WTCC http://www.italiaracing.net/news.asp?id=1136&cat=FI... :: CATEGORIE :: :: WTCC :: :: IN EDICOLA :: FORMULA 1 CHAMP CAR Magny-Cours, gara 1: marcia trionfale di Jorg Muller INDYCAR Copione rispettato a Magny-Cours. In gara FORMULA GP2 1, marcia trionfale di Jorg Muller sulla sua BMW 320i. Ma prima di passare alla cronaca F.SUPERFUND è doveroso aprire una finestra sulle condizioni del pilota tedesco Frank WS RENAULT V6 Diefenbacher, ricoverato presso l’ospedale di PAN AMERICAN V6 Nevers in seguito all’incidente occorsogli ieri durante le qualifiche. Al pilota della Ford è F.NIPPON stata riscontrata la frattura della seconda A1 GRAND PRIX vertebra lombare, per cui dovrà restare immobile per tre settimane, a cui farà F.3000 ITALIA seguito il periodo di riabilitazione. Un grosso in bocca al lupo da tutta la 3000 PROSERIES redazione di Italiaracing. Tornando alla gara, va detto che non ha vissuto grosse emozioni. F.ATLANTIC Partito dalla pole, Jorg Muller ha subito preso la testa seguito dall’altra INDY PRO SERIES BMW di Andy Priaulx, con ogni probabilità favorite entrambe dalla trazione posteriore. Dietro di loro si formava un trenino composto da F.3 EURO SERIES Rydell, Garcia e Tarquini, con questi ultimi due che davano vita ad un F.3 INGLESE duello che vedeva primeggiare l’alfista. Nel frattempo si fermava la Chevrolet Lacetti di Menu finita in sabbia, a testimonianza del momento F.3 ITALIANA poco fortunato della casa inglese. In testa, mentre non si registravano F.3 TEDESCA novità, si viveva del duello tra Farfus e Garcia. Il brasiliano dell’Alfa Racing si faceva sotto allo spagnolo, sferrava l’attacco alla curva F.3 SPAGNOLA Adelaide, ma il portacolori del Team Ravaglia riusciva a resistere. Una F.3 GIAPPONESE manovra che costava cara a Farfus, che veniva superato da Genè e Dirk Muller. E proprio il vincitore di Monza, appesantito dai 45 kg. zavorra F.3 INTERNAZ. iniziava la sua rimonta, che dopo aver passato Genè, lo faceva risalire EUROCUP F.RENAULT al 5° posto. La gara entrava così nella fase finale, Muller controllava bene Priaulx e Tarquini non riusciva più ad insidiare Rydell. La bandiera F.RENAULT ITALIA a scacchi sanciva la doppietta BMW, a testimonianza di un facile F.JUNIOR 1600 dominio. Terzo era Rydell, poi Tarquini, Garcia, Dirk Muller, Genè, Farfus e Terting, protagonista nel finale di un contatto con Giovanardi. F.BMW TEDESCA Per gli indipendenti, vittoria di Marc Hennerici su BMW 320i, che si F.AZZURRA aggiudicava il primo posto anche per la prova valida per il Campionato Italiano. F.

Quattro BMW, ai primi F.SUPERFUND quattro posti a suggello di una supremazia schiacciante. Allo spegnimento del semaforo, WS RENAULT V6 Farfus scatta bene dalla pole prendendo PAN AMERICAN V6 subito la testa. Dietro di lui la Seat di Gene perdeva due posizioni a beneficio delle BMW F.NIPPON di Dirk Muller e Antonio Garcia. Malgrado le A1 GRAND PRIX zavorre, i due andavano subito a caccia dell’Alfa al comando. Nelle retrovie si faceva F.3000 ITALIA sotto anche Jorg Muller, il vincitore di gara 1 partito dall’ottava 3000 PROSERIES posizione, e a farne la spese era Tarquini. In testa il duello si faceva serrato, con Dirk Muller che ormai era negli scarichi di Farfus. Il F.ATLANTIC brasiliano faceva sempre più fatica a contenere gli assalti del tedesco, INDY PRO SERIES appesantito di ben 45 kg di zavorra. Grazie alla lotta al vertice, si riportavano sul duo di testa anche Garcia e Jorg Muller. Ormai per F.3 EURO SERIES Farfus era un vero e proprio assedio, che terminava con la capitolazione F.3 INGLESE alla curva Adelaide. Attaccato dalle due vetture del Team Deutschland Schnitzer, finiva all’esterno inchiodando e spiattellando le gomme, F.3 ITALIANA venendo così infilato dalle tre BMW. Dirk Muller prendeva il comando, F.3 TEDESCA ma presto doveva cedere il passo a Jorg Muller, più veloce in quanto più leggero. Più indietro Farfus, superava Tarquini, che veniva poi passato F.3 SPAGNOLA da un arrembante Priaulx. La gara viveva battute concitate, con duelli F.3 GIAPPONESE serrati: Garcia che attaccava Dirk Muller, mentre Priaulx aveva la meglio su Farfus. Con quattro 320i al vertice, prendeva sempre più F.3 INTERNAZ. corpo la cavalcata delle valchirie bavaresi; ma non per questo lo EUROCUP F.RENAULT spettacolo veniva meno. Mentre Jorg allungava, alle sue spalle si scatenava una lotta a tre con Dirk che chiudeva in tutti i modi la strada F.RENAULT ITALIA ad uno scatenato Priaulx, che nel frattempo aveva superato anche F.JUNIOR 1600 Garcia. L’ultimo giro vedeva il campione inglese tentare l’ultimo assalto, ma il tedesco riusciva resistere. Lo sventolio della bandiera a scacchi, F.BMW TEDESCA salutava il bis di Jorg Muller, autore di una week end capolavoro. Dietro F.AZZURRA di lui, il compagno di scuderia Dirk, Priaulx e Garcia. Arrivo, che negli istanti seguenti ha pure regalato un piccolo brivido, con Dirk Muller che F. GLORIA per imprecisati motivi si scomponeva sul rettilineo d’arrivo, forse LMES toccato involontariamente da Priaulx. Il tedesco s’intraversava, venendo così urtato dal sopraggiungente Farfus, giunto quinto. Fortunatamente 24 ORE LE MANS tutto si risolveva con qualche ammaccatura di carrozzeria e forse con ALMS qualche rimprovero della direzione, che ha immediatamente convocato Dirk Muller. Nella prova riservata agli indipendenti, vittoria di Tom GRAND-AM Coronel su Seat davanti a Rosenblad.

    FIA WTCC NEWSLETTER # 46 – 23 November 2007 RECORD CROWD ATTENDED MACAU EVENT A record crowd attended the 54th Macau Grand Prix event that included the FIA WTCC finale. According to the figures released by the Macau Grand Prix Committee last Monday, 55,000 spectators gathered on the grandstands along the Guia Track over the weekend, while an estimated 200,000 more watched the races from hotel rooms, flats and restaurants’ terraces around the track. PRIAULX: STORY OF A PHENOMENON Andy Priaulx began his route to become one of the most successful touring car drivers ever four years ago when he clinched the 2004 FIA European Touring Car Championship crown in Dubai. 2004: ETCC, DUBAI – He arrived in the Emirate state with a 12-point gap behind fellow BMW driver Dirk Müller and finished second in both races, equalling Müller’s 111 points but beating him by the dead heat (5 wins against 3). 2005: WTCC, MACAU – In the following season, the first of the new World Touring Car Championship, Müller and Priaulx arrived to the last round in Macau separated by only one point, with Alfa Romeo’s Fabrizio Giovanardi third with a 5-point gap. Again two second places enabled Priaulx to overturn the situation. 2006: WTCC, MACAU – No less than nine drivers arrived in Macau still in contention for the 2006 world championship. Alfa Romeo’s Augusto Farfus was leading before the final round, only one point ahead of the Priaulx-Jörg Müller duo. Priaulx set pole position and won the first race, with Müller sixth; as the German won the second race a fifth place was enough for Priaulx to grab his third title by one point.

  • Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE 8 October 2017 Rounds 17 & 18 – Zhejiang Circuit, China – 7 / 8 October 2017 RACE REPORT Jean-Karl Vernay moves a few steps closer to the title Gabriele Tarquini and Rob Huff share race victories The first TCR International Series event at the new Zhejiang Circuit provided two exciting races that may have changed the course of the championship before the final race meeting at Dubai. As far as the title fight is concerned, Leopard Racing’s Jean-Karl Vernay has moved a few steps closer to being crowned the successor of his former teammate Stefano Comini. The Frenchman has scored the maximum of points in Race 1 and only one point in Race 2, but as his closest rival Attila Tassi’s tally was limited to 7 points, he has stretched the leading margin to 21. As for the other contenders – Stefano Comini and Roberto Colciago – they are now 42 and 46 points adrift respectively, meaning that their hopes have nearly completely vanished when 55 points are still on offer. Should Vernay be successful in his quest for the crown, he must concede some credit to Rob Huff, who placed himself at the team’s service with great professionalism. And Huffy was rewarded today by a splendid victory in Race 2, on his final appearance in the current season. But, arguably, the talk of the town for the weekend was the debut of the two Hyundai i30 N TCR cars run by BRC Racing and driven by touring car legends Gabriele Tarquini and Alain Menu. And what a debut it was! Fastest in qualifying, the two Korean cars were relegated to 13th and 14th on the grid for both races because they had been accepted under a temporary homologation form.

  • Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE 14 June 2017 Rounds 11 & 12 – Hungaroring – 17 / 18 June 2017 PREVIEW The TCR International Series visits Hungary for the first time For the first time since it was launched three years ago, the TCR International Series visits Hungary and will race this weekend at the famous Hungaroring. Built in 1986 near the village of Mogyoród, the circuit hosted the first Formula One Grand Prix to be held behind the Iron Curtain and since then the Hungarian GP has always taken place there. Its layout has been modified twice; in 1989 to remove the chicane after Turn 3 and then again in 2003, when the pit straight was extended and Turns 1 and 14 were modified. The combination of different kinds of corners and the elevation changes, makes the Hungaroring one of the most interesting and demanding modern racetracks from a driver’s point of view. The Hungarian event also marks the first time the TCR International Series supports DTM. Track activity will begin on Friday, with the first Free Practice session. The second Practice will take place on Saturday morning, with Qualifying in the afternoon. Sunday will be the race day, with Race 1 in the early morning and Race 2 at lunch time. TCR at the Hungaroring – the event at a glance Lap distance: 4.38 km Race distance: 14 laps Start: standing Grids: determined by Qualifying results (Q1+Q2) with top-10 reversed for Race 2 Timetable: Friday, 15:15/15:45 Free Practice 1 Saturday, 12:15/12:45 Free Practice 2 Saturday, 16:50/17:25 Qualifying (Q1 + Q2) Sunday, 09:10 Race 1 Sunday, 13:00 Race 2 all times: GMT +2 Success ballast for Comini, Borković and Colciago With a couple of third places at the Salzburgring, Stefano Comini took the leadership in the standings, but also won the maximum Success Ballast for Hungaroring.

I wish you a heartfelt welcome to the Rosenblad Racing Magazine. Life starts at 320 km/h It is a very exclusive magazine as are you, dear reader. You can not even buy this magazine! Therefore you got to be very special. The magazine is in its second year of publication. Our fi rst issue came into being just one year ago. It was printed in Swedish and circulated in Sweden only to important people like you at the Swedish STCC- races. I do not think I am bragging if I say it was a success. Therefore we are now taking a bold step. We are producing the magazine in English – or at least our version of English, Swenglish! It is quite a challenge. However, as I sit here behind my computer trying to live up to being Editor-in-Chief or something as prestigious, writing this piece, we are just one week away from the fi rst race in the ETCC – the race at the legendary Autodromo Nazionale di Monza. When you read this – the Monza race is history. Anyway, there are a good many thoughts Sveneric Eriksson racing through my head right now. What will the season be like? – chief writer for Rosenblad Racing Magazine… Will I stand a chance to some good placings in the Michelin Cup for privateers? Will my BMW be equal or better than the Alfas – bar the This man is one in a million.

    Motorsport Ingolstadt, November 2002 Successful Audi “customer” teams The 2002 season will be remembered as one of the most successful in the motorsport history of AUDI AG. The Audi “works” team continued its triumphal march with the Infineon Audi R8 in the Le Mans 24 Hour race and in the American Le Mans Series (ALMS). In other motorsport disciplines, Audi “customer” teams and Audi importers claimed plenty of success too: the 2002 season saw champagne corks being popped open in Germany, Sweden and in the USA. In Germany, Team Abt Sportsline continued Audi’s tradition of success in touring car racing, taking five outright victories and clinching the title in the DTM series (Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters). In 1990 and 1991, Hans-Joachim Stuck and Frank Biela won the German Touring Car Championship in their Audi V8 quattro cars respectively, to be followed by many more title victories in a number of Super Touring Car Series around the globe. Audi works driver Laurent Aiello celebrated his 2002 triumph at the wheel of an Abt-Audi TT-R developed by Abt Sportsline. Young Swedish driver Mattias Ekström rounded off the success of the Kempten-based team with third position. Roberto Colciago proved that the Audi A4 quattro is still a winning car in its eighth racing season with the Italian’s overall victory in the fiercely contested Swedish Touring Car Championship. The KMS Team, supported by the Swedish Audi importer, won the title with the Audi A4 quattro for the third time, having already clinched the championship in 1999 and 2001. In the USA, Champion Racing successfully defended its 2001 title: for the second consecutive time, Italian-born US resident Michael Galati won the GT title of the North American Speed World Challenge in an Audi S4 quattro.
