    BRACKLEY 30 SEPTEMBER 2011 MERCEDES GP PETRONAS STRENGTHENS TECHNICAL TEAM The MERCEDES GP PETRONAS Formula One Team is pleased to announce two new appointments as the team continues to strengthen its technical structure. Geoffrey Willis will join the team as Technology Director on 17 October and Aldo Costa will begin his role as Engineering Director on 1 December. Aldo and Geoffrey will report to Technical Director Bob Bell. Aldo will be responsible for design and development, and Geoffrey will head the aerodynamics, vehicle dynamics, control systems and simulation functions. Geoffrey Willis worked at Brackley from 2001 to 2006, and was Technical Director at Red Bull Racing from 2007 to 2009, before taking a consultancy role with Hispania Racing in March 2010. Aldo Costa previously worked as Technical Director at Ferrari, joining in 1996 after eight years at the Minardi team. Aldo won eight World Championships at Maranello, prior to his departure in May 2011. Team Principal Ross Brawn said: “I am delighted to announce that Aldo Costa and Geoff Willis will be joining the MERCEDES GP PETRONAS team. Geoff is a highly respected engineer with over twenty years of Formula One experience, and we look forward to his arrival next month. Having worked closely with Aldo for many years, I know that he will bring dedication and championship-winning expertise to the team when he joins in December. Building a winning team is an exciting challenge for us all as we work towards the competitiveness and standards that we aspire to as the Mercedes-Benz works team. With a strong technical structure led by Bob Bell, we are moving ourselves into the best possible position to achieve our ambitions.” Norbert Haug, Vice-President, Mercedes-Benz Motorsport commented: “Since MERCEDES GP PETRONAS was formed as a new team in early 2010, we have been putting in place the building blocks for success.

I apologise that you are only now seeing this. I prepared it in February 2020 but didn’t send it out before going off on a skiing holiday. When we got back Covid had become all the news – in fact we were in an Italian ski resort on the first day after they shut all the schools out there. Unfortunately this got forgotten in all the excitement or boredom depending on your point of view. I am issuing it now so that we can move on to other SMC related news and have left the original date on it for reference. Sadly it contains obituaries to Welsh motorsport luminaries Jeff Churchill and Denis Cardell who passed away in late 2019 and early 2020 before the original publishing date. Happily, many of us had seen both of them fairly recently at one of the excellent Inter Club Motorsport quizzes organised by the indomitable Marie duCroq Slip.
  • Who's Who: I Volti Noti Della Mille Miglia 2017

    Who's Who: I Volti Noti Della Mille Miglia 2017

    WHO'S WHO: I VOLTI NOTI DELLA MILLE MIGLIA 2017 La Mille Miglia è glamour, life-style, mondanità. Il suo fascino irresistibile richiama ogni anno svariate celebrità che impreziosiscono la sua marcia da Brescia a Roma e ritorno. Sul tappeto rosso dell’edizione 2017 cammineranno uomini e donne dello spettacolo, capitani d’industria, politici e diplomatici, ristoratori, sportivi e, ovviamente, grandi piloti. La stella è Joe Bastianich, il ristoratore italoamericano divenuto famoso in tutta Italia per la sua partecipazione come giudice al programma televisivo Masterchef. Classe 1968, nato a New York da una famiglia di origini friulane, è titolare di numerose attività enogastronomiche tra Europa ed America. Oltre all’amore sconfinato per la ristorazione e la cultura culinaria coltiva anche numerose altre passioni. Musicista blues, ha inciso “Blues Veritas”, un disco di brani inediti scritti e composti da lui stesso. I motori? Li adora a tal punto da aver condotto, con Guido Meda e Davide Valsecchi, la stagione 2016 di Top Gear Italia. Bastianich torna alla Mille Miglia come co-pilota a due anni di distanza dalla precedente partecipazione, al volante della medesima Healey Silverstone condotta nel 2015. Anche il volto femminile di quest’edizione proviene dal mondo della televisione. Si tratta di Diletta Leotta, venticinquenne conduttrice di Serie B Studio, programma Sky del sabato pomeriggio che racconta le giornate della serie cadetta. Fidanzata con Matteo Mammì, dirigente responsabile dei diritti sportivi di Sky e nipote dell’ex ministro delle comunicazioni Oscar Mammì, è una delle conduttrici più apprezzate del panorama televisivo attuale. Alla Mille Miglia farà da apripista su una delle frecce argento marchiate Mercedes che partecipano al Challenge.

    2019 Association of Northern Car Clubs ‘Nicky Nook’ Photo Courtesy of Georgia Shiels Volume 10 : Issue 4: April 2019 : Maurice Ellison Chairman's Chat Well what a hectic two weekends for me and my club with the Lee Holland Stages at the Anglesey Circuit and a week later the Legend Fires North West Stages based at Myerscough College. The Lee Holland Stages went well with some new stages using a newly created road but the overwhelming issue was the worst weather I have ever seen at this venue. It’s a tribute to the set-up team for their efforts on the rain and wind lashed Saturday as the stage set-up was commented on very favourably by the Motorsport UK Steward. The event started on time and bar a few minor hiccups things were done much to the enjoyment of the competi- tors. After many months of detailed planning numerous members of SD34 MSG clubs and the BRMC delivered only the second closed road rally in England and what a success it was. The town of Garstang was heaving with specta- tors for the opening ceremony and thankfully the earlier rain went away in time for the cars to arrive on the High Street. Then an early start on the Saturday morning completing the set up of the stages, things like putting the bales for the chicanes in place, and then the first cars were eagerly awaited. I was on the Hawthornthwaite stage and all three runs were trouble free apart from a couple of breakdowns. In the gaps between the runs we man- aged to do a soup run for all the marshals and get a milk tanker in to do a collection, the sort of things people would never think about normally ! As it was new to us all there will obviously be many things to learn from but everyone involved in this event should be extremely proud of their efforts and here’s to the running of the 22nd Legend Fires North West Stages.
