Quest’anno, Dunlop fa il suo ritorno a La Sarthe con 23 auto che gareggiano con i pneumatici Dunlop, comprese tutte le vetture LMP2, che hanno preferito i pneumatici Dunlop a quelli della concorrenza. Come segno di apprezzamento del fatto di essere diventata l’azienda produttrice dei pneumatici di un’intera classe, Dunlop ha annunciato una speciale struttura della premiazione della categoria LMP2, che offrirà a un team la fantastica opportunità di ricevere pneumatici a titolo gratuito per il resto della stagione nel caso in cui una vettura LMP2 si aggiudichi l’intero podio a Le Mans. Si tratta sicuramente di un obiettivo difficile da raggiungere, ma non impossibile, considerati i risultati del campionato del mondo di endurance FIA e della gara di apertura ALMS in occasione della 12 ore di Sebring, quando una LMP2 che gareggiava con pneumatici Dunlop ha ottenuto l’intero podio. L’orgogliosa storia di Dunlop a Le Mans comprende 34 vittorie complessive, un numero decisamente maggiore rispetto a quello delle vittorie ottenute dalle altre aziende produttrici di pneumatici. Tra gli altri, Dunlop ha conquistato il successo con Bentley, Alfa Romeo, Bugatti, Jaguar, Ferrari, Porsche e Mazda. Dalla vittoria di John Duff e Frank Clement, che nel 1924 tagliarono il traguardo per primi a bordo di una Bentley 3 Litre in occasione della seconda edizione dell’evento, alla leggendaria vittoria di Volker Weidler nel 1991, con Johnny Herbert e Bertrand Gashot alla guida di una Mazda con motore Wankel, Dunlop continua a dimostrare che ha ciò che è necessario per superare le prove più estenuanti e difficili per le aziende produttrici di pneumatici. Dopo quell’ultima vittoria complessiva, Dunlop si è aggiudicata infinite vittorie di categoria, non ultima quella LMP2 dello scorso anno, con Greaves Motorsport a bordo della Zytek Nissan n. 41. Quest’anno, la 24 ore di Le Mans ha raggiunto l’ottantesima edizione, che sarà sicuramente ricca di emozioni e, per pochi fortunati, di gloria. Dunlop occuperà un posto di rilievo nella gara fin dall’inizio. Tutti a bordo! 01 GIUGNO 2012 motorsport.dunlop.eu motorsport.dunlop.eu GIUGNO 2012 02 ECCO I PARTECIPANTI CHE HANNO SCELTO DUNLOP PER GAREggIARE A LE MANS Ancora una volta, nella stagione del 2012 classe LMP2 vede inoltre la partecipazione di Dunlop occuperà un posto di rilievo nella ben sei diverse case produttrici di telai: griglia di partenza della gara di endurance Oreca, Morgan (OAK), Lola, HPD, Zytek e più famosa in assoluto: la 24 ore di Le Mans.

  • We Celebrate One of the Great Racing Car Constructors
    LOLA AT 60 WE CELEBRATE ONE OF THE GREAT RACING CAR CONSTRUCTORS Including FROM BROADLEY TO BIRRANE GREATEST CARS LOLA’S SECRET WEAPON THE AUDI CHALLENGER The success of the Mk1 sports-racer, usually powered by the Coventry Climax 1100cc FWA engine, brought Lola Cars into existence. It overshadowed the similar e orts of Lotus boss Colin Chapman and remained competitive for several seasons. We believe it is one of designer Eric Broadleyʼs greatest cars, so turn to page 16 to see what our resident racer made of the original prototype at Donington Park. Although the coupe is arguably more iconic, the open version of the T70 was more successful. Developed in 1965, the Group 7 machine could take a number of di erent V8 engines and was ideal for the inaugural Can-Am contest in ʼ66. Champion John Surtees, Dan Gurney and Mark Donohue won races during the campaign, while Surtees was the only non-McLaren winner in ʼ67. The big Lola remains a force in historic racing.

  • In Touch the Official Magazine of Dunlop Motorsport [ ] Le Mans Race Edition
    IN TOUCH THE OFFICIAL MAGAZINE OF DUNLOP MOTORSPORT [ www.injection.tv ] LE MANS RACE EDITION Dunlop came away from the Le Mans 24 hours delighted with the performance of its dry and light wet tyres after a difficult race in which the changing condi- tions contributed to the overall result. “We were pretty competitive in all conditions other than full wet conditions,” says Dunlop’s chief tyre technician Matthew Simpson of the LMP2 tyres. “On the slick tyres and the light wet tyres, we had a performance advantage, but in full wet conditions we struggled to get temperature into our compounds. The Essex car had engine trouble so we were never going to do better than we did, but we have to look at the tyre perform- ance in wet conditions and make it better. “The Virgo Ferrari team were very strong and our development construction at the rear allowed us to double stint safely. There was no sign of difficulty in doing so, and there was zero deterioration from the first lap to the last in a double stint, according to the drivers. Le Mans podiums for Essex Perhaps we could have triple stinted, but we didn’t test that before the race and during the race was not the time to try. Porsche and Farnbacher Ferrari “The Creation team had four punctures and three of them were caused by debris. There was not enough left of the tyre to establish the cause of the fourth.” The 2008 edition of the Le Mans 24 hours produced was difficult to drive because sometimes the power was everything from a record breaking qualifying and race there, other times it wasn’t and we couldn’t know what to John Nielsen, Casper Elgaard and Sascha Maassen pace, a record crowd of 258,500 turning out in eager expect.

  • Programme Peugeot Sport 2008
    PROGRAMME PEUGEOT SPORT 2008 - Press release - Peugeot 908 HDi FAP - Technical Data - Calendar - Drivers - The team - Press officer - Motor Sport Promotional Activities 2008 PROGRAMME A YEAR OF MANY CHALLENGES The 2007 season turned out to be one of the most rewarding ever for Peugeot Sport which launched four different new cars on the world motor sport scene, from the factory programme with the 908 HDi FAP to its package of promotional formulae with the 207 LW THP, 207 Super 2000 and Spider THP. The lessons learned by the team while finding its marks last year will be implemented in 2008 and all its energy will be devoted to building on that experience to achieve its objectives. This time last year, under the leadership of Michel Barge, Peugeot Sport organised a dynamic presentation of the new 908 HDi FAP to announce its modest objectives for the season ahead. Following the car's initial gestation, which was rapid to say the least, Team Peugeot Total enjoyed a memorable season which brought its fair share of surprises, satisfactions and passion, not to mention the unrelenting toil which enabled it to secure results well beyond its expectations and targets. Indeed, never in Peugeot's history had a competition car won out of the box, yet the 908 HDi FAP claimed victory in its debut race at Monza before going on to clinch the 2007 Le Mans Series. Team Peugeot Total won all six rounds, started from pole position each time and posted every fastest race lap, not to mention its unhoped-for performance at Le Mans where it started from pole position before taking second place at the end of the 24-hour race.

  • Le Mans Fan Guide 2005 Wird in Den Kommenden Tagen Stetig Aktualisiert Um Laufend Aktuelle Informationen Anbieten Zu Können
    LE MANS 24H FAN GUIDE 2005 „Formula One is for kids, Sportscars for real men“ Michele Alboreto, Sebring 2000 Vorwort Nach dem grossen Erfolg 2004 möchten wir Euch auch in diesem Jahr wieder einen Appetithappen auf die legendären 24 Stunden von Le Mans geben. Die 2005er Auflage der 24 Stunden von Le Mans besitzt im Vorfeld alle Zutaten um als Klassiker in die Geschichte des seit 1923 ausgetragenen Rennens einzugehen. Im zweiten Jahr des Reglementwechsel von LMP900 / LMP675 auf LMP1 / LMP2 tritt in der grossen Prototypen- kategorie der fünfmalige Le Mans Sieger AUDI mit einem nicht mehr weiterentwickelten AUDI R8 an. Die Riege der kleineren Hersteller wie Courage, Dallara, Dome und Pescarolo nutzten die Chance ihre Fahrzeug dem Übergangsreglement anzupassen und konnten in dieser Saison die AUDI R8 bei den 1000km von Spa-Francorchamps aus eigener Kraft schlagen und setzten auch beim Testtag die Pace. In der LMP2 Kategorie kommt es in diesem Jahr dank dem Courage C65 und den Lola B05/40 zu einem ebenfalls sehr ausgeglichenen und zahlenmässig sehenswerten Starterfeld. Unser beson- deres Augenmerk gilt hier dem aus Köln stammenden Team Kruse Motorsport mit einem, für Ian Mitchell eingesetzten, Courage C65 JUDD. Die GT Kategorien sind wie in den vergangenen Jahren wieder sehr stark besetzt. In der GT1 Kategorie werden sich die Werksmannschaften von Aston Martin und Corvette mit den Ferrari F550 von CARE Racing Development auseinander setzten müssen. Die GT2 Kategorie dürfte eine leichte Beute der Porsche 996 GT3-RS(R) werden, jedoch keine leichte Beute für eines der Porsche Teams. Als Bereicherung treten hier Ferrari F360 GTC, TVR T400R und Spyker C8 an.
