Dan Bathie’s here to help. any of you reading this guide may well have alreadymade at leastone annual Mpilgrimage to Le Mans. For some however, 2011 will be the first. This guide will hope- fully help you get the most out of the French classic. Firstly, the things to bring. A tent; OK, so this one is fairly obvious but if you do decide to bring a cheap one make sure it’s waterproof first - as Jason Statham once said “It always rains at Le Mans”. Another essential is a radio. Tune it to 91.2FM for the du- ration of the week and listen to the always enjoyable Radio Le Mans team entertain and inform, and will complement your Andy Blackmore spotters’ guide perfectly. Food and drink. The food and drink are decent but quite ex- pensive at Le Mans, so a trip to a supermarché on the way is recommended to stock up with, well let’s face it, beer! A barbeque should also be packed because we all love to cook food badly and with lots of hassle and if you don’t bring one major jealousy will kick in against your neighbours. Next to the barbeque a fire extin- guisher because your Tesco Value (other brands are avail- able) tent will almost certainly be highly flammable.

  • 2016 Bmw Motorsport Junior Programme
    BMW Motorsport 2016 BMW MOTORSPORT www.press. Sheer JUNIOR PROGRAMME bmwgroup-sport.com Driving Pleasure MEDIA INFORMATION. BMW MOTORSPORT JUNIOR PROGRAMME. TALENT PROMOTION IN GT RACING. The development of promising talented drivers enjoys a long tradition at BMW Motorsport. In 2014 a new multi-level GT junior concept had been introduced: the BMW Motorsport Junior Programme. This realignment saw BMW Motorsport shift its development of young drivers back to the GT and touring car sector. In Formula racing the concept bore fruit for many years in Formula BMW and the Formula BMW Talent Cup and kick-started the racing career of many successful drivers like Sebastian Vettel, Nico Rosberg and Nico Hülkenberg. The focus is on GT and touring car drivers who already have some racing experience. Outings in the BMW M235i Racing are an integral part of the comprehensive training programme. As well as race starts and test drives, intensive theory courses dealing with fitness and PR are planned, as are mental and simulator training. The potential candidates for this year’s class were put to the test in a shootout in the BMW M235i Racing in Dijon on 10th/11th March. A decision as to which of the young drivers showed the most potential is made by a jury of experts, headed by BMW Motorsport Director Jens Marquardt. BMW works driver Dirk Adorf will act as a mentor for the junior programme. At the end of the year, the most successful BMW Motorsport Junior of the season will be given the opportunity to continue his training for a second year in a higher racing category.
