    F1 Digest ­ Brazil Preview Intro Here we are then, rapidly approaching the last race of the 2008 season. It’s been an amazing year, and F1 Digest is here to guide you through this final Grand Prix weekend. Vital Statistics Date: 2nd November Circuit: Interlagos Length: 4.3km Laps: 71 2007 Winner: Kimi Raikkonen Last Year Last year’s championship showdown at Brazil was thrill‐a‐minute, so let’s remind ourselves of that before we look at what to expect this year. [Begin Montage] Chris: Hamilton headed up the queue in the third session, followed by Alonso. There were quite a few of them sat there with their engines overheating, with over a minute to go. Alonso appeared to be hassling Hamilton around the first few corners, but not really close enough for any major manoeuvres. [Next Clip] Me: But McLaren have that guy in the pits this week, don’t they? The FIA inspector making sure things like that wouldn’t happen. [Next Clip] Chris: Raikkonen got past Hamilton off the line, and then he was side by side with Massa but had to fall behind at the first corner. In doing so, he held up Hamilton which allowed Alonso to get past as well. Hamilton tried to regain his position but ran really wide, lost tons of places, he ended up back in 8th. [Next Clip] Chris: Hamilton got past Trulli straight away and Heidfeld practically let him through but on the next lap, he slowed right down, cars were streaming past him. He couldn’t find any gears.

On the southern shore of Lake Constance, the Autobau is easily accessible by train (it is located right next to the Romanshorn main train station) and is close to Zurich. It is also easily reached via lake steamer from www.porscheroadandrace.com Friedrichshafen Germany.

Mercedes and McLaren: divorce German style USF1 confirms Aragon and Stubbs Issue 09.44 Senna signs for Campos New idea in Abu Dhabi Bridgestone to quit F1 at the end of 2010 Tom Wheatcroft A Silverstone deal close Graham Nearn Williams to confirm Barrichello and Hulkenberg this week Vettel in the twilight zone thebusinessofmotorsport ECONOMIC NEWS AND ANALYSIS FROM THE RACING WORLD Doubts over Toyota future Toyota is expected to announce later this week that it will be withdrawing from Formula 1 immediately. The company is believed to have taken the decision after indications in Japan that the automotive markets are not getting any better, Honda having recently announced a 56% drop in earnings in the last quarter, compared to 2008. Prior to that the company was looking at other options, such as selling the team on to someone else. This has now been axed and the company will simply close things down and settle all the necessary contractual commitments as quickly as possible. The news, if confirmed, will be another blow to the manufacturer power in F1 as it will be the third withdrawal by a major car company in 11 months, following in the footsteps of Honda and BMW. There are also doubts about the future of Renault's factory team. The news will also be a blow to the Formula One Teams' Association, although the members have learned that working together produces much better results than trying to take on the authorities alone. It also means that there are now just three manufacturers left: Ferrari, Mercedes and Renault, and engine supply from Cosworth will become essential to ensure there are sufficient engines to go around.

  • Revolution Magazine Autumn 2005
    Welcome to Revolution When we launched Revolution magazine earlier this year we were pleasantly surprised by the positive feedback that we received from readers, in the form of calls, letters and emails. You 2 seemed to like the mix of information and news and it’s given us something to live up to with this, our second issue. As the largest independent distributor of turbochargers in the world, we aim to support the factors and vehicle repairers who depend on us to supply replacement turbos quickly and efficiently, and to provide advice on all aspects of turbocharging. Some of the facts and figures that we quote in this issue illustrate just how many turbocharged vehicles there are on the road today. Sooner or later, they’re all going to need some turbo attention! Inside Revolution 2 In this issue, you’ll find an article outlining the basic principle of turbocharging. It is surprisingly simple in its basic form, but technology is moving very fast, as you will see in our profile of BorgWarner Turbo Systems. We also look at the success of the Garrett®-boosted Audi R8 in June’s Le Mans 24 hour race and, by way of contrast, we see how turbocharged diesel power is becoming popular in the marina (that’s the harbour, not the seventies’ Morris car!) Win a Silverstone Track Day BTN offers you the opportunity to spend a day driving at Silverstone! Enter our simple competition and you and a friend or colleague could be off to for an adrenalin-filled day behind the wheel, in everything from a Lotus Elise on the track to a 4x4 on the specially constructed off-road course.

  • 1985: Il Sogno Diventa Realtà
    Riprende il nostro viaggio all’interno del Minardi Team e, in questo nuovo capitolo, affronteremo insieme il momento più importante, l’esordio nel Mondiale di Formula 1, al Gran Premio del Brasile sul tracciato di Rio nonostante i vari problemi legati ad un debutto così importante 1985: Il sogno diventa realtà Nel 1984 Gian Carlo Minardi era riuscito ad accumulare un grande bagaglio professionale come Team Manager e il suo Minardi Team aveva attirato grande attenzione su di se, nonostante i risultati ottenuti fino a quel momento non avessero ripagato pienamente gli sforzi. Da qualche anno ormai Gian Carlo Minardi pensava al grande salto di categoria, alla Formula 1, a quel mondo dove anche i più grandi e potenti personaggi erano andati in contro a numerose difficoltà per via degli elevati costi. Questo però non fermò Minardi che fissò per l’anno successivo il debutto nella massima serie, decidendo di andare avanti nonostante la mancanza di uno sponsor miliardario alle spalle che potesse finanziare la nascita della F1 romagnola: supporter che andavano trovati strada facendo, anche perché ormai il Minardi Team era composta da 22 persone, troppi per un F.2 ma pochi per l’avventura in F.1 e quindi bisognava trovare nuovi finanziatori, i quali erano però interessati solamente alla massima categoria. Foto1: Una fase della costruzione della scocca della “M 184 Alfa Romeo” – Foto tratta da: Minardi Team F1 di Stefano Pasini, Ed. C.E.L.I Sport 6 In vista del debutto Minardi decise quindi di andare a fare un’offerta all’Alfa Romeo per rilevare la sua scuderia di F.1 che non stava vivendo certamente un periodo particolarmente felice a causa degli scarsi risultati sportivi e degli elevati costi di gestione.

    Forgotten F1 Teams – Series 1 Omnibus Welcome to Forgotten F1 Teams – a mini series from Sidepodcast. These shows were originally released over seven consecutive days But are now gathered together in this omniBus edition. Simtek Grand Prix You’re listening to Sidepodcast, and this is the latest mini‐series: Forgotten F1 Teams. I think it’s proBaBly self explanatory But this is a series dedicated to profiling some of the forgotten teams. Forget aBout your Ferrari’s and your McLaren’s, what aBout those who didn’t make such an impact on the sport, But still have a story to tell? Those are the ones you’ll hear today. Thanks should go to Scott Woodwiss for suggesting the topic, and the teams, and we’ll dive right in with Simtek Grand Prix. Simtek Grand Prix was Born from Simtek Research Ltd, the name standing for Simulation Technology. The company founders were Nick Wirth and Max Mosley, Both of whom had serious pedigree within motorsport. Mosley had Been a team owner Before with March, and Wirth was a mechanical engineering student who was snapped up By March as an aerodynamicist, working underneath Adrian Newey. When March was sold to Leyton House, Mosley and Wirth? Both decided to leave, and joined forces to create Simtek. Originally, the company had a single office in Wirth’s house, But it was soon oBvious they needed a Bigger, more wind‐tunnel shaped Base, which they Built in Oxfordshire. Mosley had the connections that meant racing teams from all over the gloBe were interested in using their research technologies, But while keeping the clients satisfied, Simtek Began designing an F1 car for BMW in secret.

They were only ever on sale at the circuit, and were sold to raise funds for things going on in Silverstone Village. Being sold on the circuit gave them access to some very hard to find signatures, as you can see from this initial selection.

    MEDIA INFORMATION September 1 Round 4: 2013 6 Hours of Sao Paulo New MICHELIN endurance racing tyres: Medium compound for hot weather… mission accomplished! The 2013 6 Hours of Sao Paulo saw Audi Sport Team Joest claim a one-two finish. The job of the two Audi R18 e-tron quattros was facilitated by the early elimination of the TOYOTA TS030 Hybrid following a tangle 35 minutes into the race. However, that didn‟t prevent the German team‟s drivers from producing an exciting fight as they battled for WEC FIA World Endurance Championship points. Their clash lasted until Lap 142 when the N°2 Audi lost a wheel as it re- joined the track after a pit-stop. It was compelled to complete a whole lap with just three corners attached before the situation was corrected during an unscheduled stop. Despite all these incidents, MICHELIN Motorsport‟s technical staff were able to carry out a thorough analysis of the brand‟s latest LMP1 endurance racing tyres after they had used the summer break to develop new solutions adapted to the more abrasive tracks visited by the second half of the 2013 FIA World Endurance Championship. Audi Sport Team Joest and Toyota Motorsport GmbH were both able to use these new tyres during Friday‟s free practice session. They were won over by their performance and chose to use them for qualifying. “We were pleasantly surprised because we had very few opportunities to test the new medium- compound MICHELIN tyres before leaving for Brazil,” observed Audi Sport Team Joest driver Benoît TRELUYER before the start of the race.
