  • WRC Rallye D'espagne
    MEDIA INFORMATION November 2013 2013 FIA World Endurance Championship Round 7: 6 Hours of Shanghai Victory for the N°1 AUDI R18 e-tron quattro/MICHELIN, as Tom Kristensen/Loïc Duval/Allan McNish secure the 2013 WEC Drivers’ title After the torrential rain that forced the organisers to halt the recent 6 Hours of Fuji after just 16 laps, all spent behind the safety car, Audi Sport Team Joest and Toyota Motorsport GmbH were both eager to join battle once again this weekend in China. In contrast to the conditions encountered in Japan, the 6 Hours of Shanghai was marked by clear skies and warm weather (air temperature: approximately 25°C, and track temperatures up to 30°C) which enabled the teams to produce yet another thrilling show, with the outcome only settled with less than half-an-hour remaining. The pole-winning N°7 Toyota TS030-Hybrid of Wurz/Lapierre carved out an early lead, while the N°8 sister car – with Antony Davidson in command – engaged in a fight with André Lotterer in the N°1 Audi R18 e-tron quattro. On Lap 10, the British driver succeeded in finding a way past to ease into second place. The two Japanese prototypes then proceeded to dominate the top of the leaderboard until the eventful 143rd lap (190 laps completed in total). After 4½ hours of racing, the N°8 Toyota TS030-Hybrid was suddenly eliminated when its front- right suspension failed under barking for Turn 6. This promoted the N°1 Audi to second spot, approximately half-a-minute behind the N°7 Toyota, thanks to a strong stint from Benoît Tréluyer in the German car, as well as to a couple of time-consuming „moments‟ for the Japanese team‟s Nicolas Lapierre while overtaking slower competitors.

Voici les conditions dantesques dans lesquelles les concurrents des 6 Heures de Fuji 2013 ont pris le départ de la course à 11h00, derrière la safety car. Au bout de 8 tours, et une fois constaté que le manque de visibilité ne permettait pas de continuer à rouler en sécurité, le Directeur de course a imposé un premier drapeau rouge. Après plus de deux heures de parc fermé, les voitures ont recommencé à rouler, toujours sous la tutelle de la safety car. Encore 7 tours sont accomplis par les concurrents avant qu’un deuxième drapeau n’arrête à nouveau l’épreuve. L’attente dure jusqu’à 15h35 : les voitures reprennent la piste pour boucler un dernier tour avant la fin anticipée décrétée par les instances. Ainsi, les 6 Heures de Fuji 2013 se sont finalement achevées après 16 tours seulement, parcourus (à trois reprises) par les concurrents derrière la safety car. La Toyota TS030-Hybrid n°7 et le pilote japonais Kazuki NAKAJIMA (associé à Wurz/Lapierre) sont décrétés vainqueurs. Ils sont suivis sur le podium par le trio de pilotes officiels de l’Audi R18 e-tron quattro composé par Kristensen/Duval/McNish.

  • Kinetic Energy Recovery System - Wikipedia 1 of 8
    Kinetic energy recovery system - Wikipedia 1 of 8 Kinetic energy recovery system A kinetic energy recovery system (KERS) is an automotive system for recovering a moving vehicle's kinetic energy under braking. The recovered energy is stored in a reservoir (for example a flywheel or high voltage batteries) for later use under acceleration. Examples include complex high end systems such as the Zytek, Flybrid,[1] Torotrak[2][3] and Xtrac used in Formula One racing and simple, easily manufactured and integrated differential based systems such as the Cambridge Passenger/Commercial Vehicle Kinetic Energy Recovery A Flybrid Systems kinetic energy System (CPC-KERS). recovery system. Xtrac and Flybrid are both licensees of Torotrak's technologies, which employ a small and sophisticated ancillary gearbox incorporating a continuously variable transmission (CVT). The CPC-KERS is similar as it also forms part of the driveline assembly. However, the whole mechanism including the flywheel sits entirely in the vehicle's hub (looking like a drum brake). In the CPC-KERS, a differential replaces the CVT and transfers torque between the flywheel, drive wheel and road wheel.

A maximum power boost of 60 kW (81.6 PS, 80.4 HP) for 6.67 seconds is available.
