  • Bahrain Race
    Press Release November 15, 2014 No. M 215/14 Sports Car World Endurance Championship WEC, round 7 in Sakhir/Bahrain - Race GT Best Porsche 911 RSR narrowly misses podium placing Stuttgart. Despite an inspired charge through the field on the Bahrain International Circuit it was not enough for the Porsche 911 RSR to secure a podium spot for the first time in this year’s sports car World Endurance Championship, two weeks after a brilliant double victory in Shanghai. In the number 91 Porsche Team Manthey 911 RSR, Porsche works drivers Jörg Bergmeister (Germany) and Richard Lietz (Austria) scored fourth place in the highly competitive GTE-Pro class at the penultimate round of the season in the Kingdom of Bahrain at the Persian Gulf. Their factory pilot col- leagues and Shanghai winners Frédéric Makowiecki and Patrick Pilet from France saw the flag in fifth at the wheel of the number 92 vehicle. It was already clear in qualifying that the Porsche 911 RSR would face a difficult race in the hot and humid weather conditions on the 5.407 kilometre Grand Prix circuit outside the capital of Manama. For this reason, the Porsche Manthey squad decided to use a different strategy than the opposition. During the early first safety car phase, the two works vehicles from Weissach were called into the pits for servicing, while the competition stayed out on the track. At first this strategy looked as if it might work: After the first hour of racing, Richard Lietz was running at the head of the GT field with Frédéric Makowiecki close behind on second place.

  • Michelin, Le Pilier Des 6 Heures De Silverstone
    INFORMATION MEDIA Avril 2015 Championnat du monde d’Endurance - FIA WEC 2015 6 Heures de Silverstone Michelin, le pilier des 6 Heures de Silverstone Après la trêve hivernale, le Prologue, qui s’est déroulé les 27 et 28 mars derniers sur le Circuit Paul Ricard, au Castellet (Var, France), a mis au jour les excellentes performances des partenaires de Michelin, engagés en Championnat du Monde d’Endurance - FIA WEC 2015, dans les catégories LM P1, LM P2, LM GTE Pro et LM GTE AM. Les équipes se retrouvaient donc ce weekend à Silverstone (Royaume-Uni), pour disputer la première course de six heures de la saison. Construit sur une ancienne base de la Royal Air Force, le Circuit de Silverstone est un lieu mythique du sport automobile, chargé d’histoire, qui développe aujourd’hui une longueur de 5,89 km pour 18 virages. Un tracé à la fois varié et technique, qui fait la part belle au spectacle, et qui a permis aux pneus Michelin d’exprimer toutes leurs qualités. Une raison de satisfaction pour la firme clermontoise, puisqu’en 2015 le règlement du FIA WEC lui a imposé un défi supplémentaire, en limitant la quantité de pneumatiques pour les qualifications et la course à six trains par voiture. Cette mesure s’applique aux catégories LM P1, LM GTE Pro et LM GTE AM, tandis qu’une restriction à quatre trains avait déjà été introduite l’an dernier pour les voitures LM P2. Avec cette nouvelle règle, la constance des performances des pneumatiques au fil de l’usure devient capitale, notamment en catégorie LM P1, où la quantité de trains de pneus peut maintenant être inférieure à celle des arrêts aux stands, ce qui imposerait aux équipes de réaliser au moins un double relais.

  • Ford Chip Ganassi Racing Dominates at Daytona, While Corvette Racing Claims Podium Honours in Florida
    MEDIA INFORMATION 2018 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship Round 1: Rolex 24 at Daytona Ford Chip Ganassi Racing dominates at Daytona, while Corvette Racing claims podium honours in Florida Chip Ganassi Racing’s two Michelin-equipped Ford GTs dominated the GT LM class at the Rolex 24 At Daytona, opening round of the 2018 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship. Despite fierce competition from Ferrari, Porsche and BMW, as well as constant pressure from Corvette Racing’s brace of cars, Ryan Briscoe, Richard Westbrook and Scott Dixon steered the N°67 Ford GT to the weekend’s win, finishing 11.166 seconds clear of team-mates Joey Hand, Dirk Mueller and Sébastien Bourdais in the N°66 sister car. The two Ford GTs led for all but nine of the 783 laps (4,486km) completed by the fastest GT Le Mans cars around the 5.73km track to beat the distance record for the class that had stood since 1992. It was the third victory in a world-class 24-hour endurance race for the Ford GT after its previous successes at Le Mans in 2016 – the year of the car’s launch – and at Daytona last January. The result also saw Chip Ganassi Racing (CGR) notch up its 200th race victory (IndyCar, NASCAR, IMSA, FIA WEC, etc.) following a perfect weekend for Mr. Ganassi himself who was named Grand Marshall for the 56th running of the Rolex 24 at Daytona. “Twenty-four-hour races always present a wide range of challenges, both known and unexpected, and this race was no exception,” said Chris Baker, Director of Motorsport, Michelin North America.
