Highly Competitive Field Contests the 2021 Rolex 24 at Daytona PRESS RELEASE HIGHLY COMPETITIVE FIELD CONTESTS THE 2021 ROLEX 24 AT DAYTONA Daytona International Speedway, 31 January 2021 – A thrilling and highly competitive 59th edition of the Rolex 24 At DAYTONA saw the No. 10 Konica Minolta Acura ARX-05 DPi crowned winners for the third consecutive year. Marking the start of Rolex’s motor sport season, the Swiss watch brand has been Title Sponsor of this historic endurance race since 1992, forming part of its long-term commitment to motoring excellence and achievement. The 2021 Rolex 24 At DAYTONA got underway when the 49-car field crossed the start line on Saturday afternoon at 15:40 local time. The Cadillacs controlled the early pace, but following an impressive charge to the front, due to a series of tactical pit stops and exciting wheel-to-wheel racing, the No. 10 Acura took the lead. With the Rolex clock counting down the final hour, five Daytona Prototype international (DPi) teams still had a chance of victory. The No. 01 Cadillac Chip Ganassi Racing Cadillac DPi V.R came closest to challenging, only to suffer a devastating puncture with less than eight minutes remaining, relegating them to fifth. After a late comeback from Kamui Kobayashi, the No. 48 Ally Racing Cadillac DPi V.R came in a close second, followed by the No. 55 Mazda Motorsports Mazda RT24-P DPi – the first time that three different manufacturers have shared the podium since 2013. This year, having recently switched manufacturers, the No. 10 fielded a refreshed driver line-up of defending IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Champions Ricky Taylor and Hélio Castroneves, alongside Filipe Albuquerque and Alexander Rossi. Reflecting on the team’s achievement, Taylor said: “It’s an amazing feeling – so much went in to this, it was definitely a test of trust and a testament to preparation. From the start, the race never slowed down, it was one of the most hectic, intense, flat out 24 hours I’ve ever been a part of; it went right down to the end.” Following the conclusion of the race, the No. 10 drivers were presented with a Rolex Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph Daytona in recognition of the dedication and excellence required to take victory at the Rolex 24 At DAYTONA. In the final season for the GT Le Mans (GTLM) class before the introduction of the new GTD Pro category, Corvette Racing claimed a dominant one-two with the No. 3 coming home 3.519 seconds ahead of its sister No. 4 car. The GT Daytona (GTD) category, which represented more than a third of entries, was won by the No. 57 Winward Racing Mercedes-AMG GT3. While in the Le Mans Prototype 2 (LMP2) 1/3 HIGHLY COMPETITIVE FIELD CONTESTS THE 2021 ROLEX 24 AT DAYTONA category, the No. 18 Era Motorsport ORECA LMP2 07 headed an Oreca top three finish, and the No. 74 Riley Motorsports Ligier JS P320 VK took a commanding inaugural Le Mans Prototype 3 (LMP3) class victory. This weekend, in recognition of the bright future of endurance racing, Pierre Fillon, President of the Automobile Club de l’Ouest (ACO), gave the starters orders. Reflecting on the role of Grand Marshal, as well as the convergence of the ACO and the International Motor Sports Association (IMSA) a year after their landmark announcement, Fillon said: “It is a great honour and pleasure for me. My presence here as Grand Marshal of this prestigious race sends out a strong message to the entire endurance world: Le Mans and Daytona, the ACO and IMSA, are working hand-in-hand and shall continue to do so. Our discipline has a bright future thanks to this collaboration. Competing in the WeatherTech Championship and in the FIA WEC with the same car was a dream for many manufacturers. It is soon a dream come true.” Rolex’s involvement in endurance racing also encompasses the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC), supporting motor sport’s desire to continuously push the boundaries of technology and innovation. ROLEX AND MOTOR SPORT Rolex’s close ties with motor sport date back to Sir Malcolm Campbell’s World Land Speed Record successes in the 1930s, when he became the first driver to break the 300 mph barrier (483 km/h) at the wheel of his car, Bluebird. Since then, Rolex’s presence in motor racing has grown steadily, its support extending to revered endurance events such as the Rolex 24 At DAYTONA, the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the FIA World Endurance Championship. In 2013, Rolex became associated with Formula 1®, the pinnacle of motor sport, having supported Rolex Testimonee Sir Jackie Stewart since 1968. The three-time FIA Formula 1® Drivers’ World Champion has been joined by fellow high achievers from the world of motor sport: Tom Kristensen, the record nine-time 24 Hours of Le Mans winner, and Mark Webber, the multiple Formula 1® race winner and 2015 FIA World Endurance Champion. The brand also has a global appreciation for classic automotive events steeped in elegance, beauty and tradition, including the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance®, The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering, the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion and the Goodwood Revival. 2/3 HIGHLY COMPETITIVE FIELD CONTESTS THE 2021 ROLEX 24 AT DAYTONA ABOUT ROLEX AN UNRIVALLED REPUTATION FOR QUALITY AND EXPERTISE Rolex, a Swiss watch manufacture headquartered in Geneva, is recognized the world over for its expertise and the quality of its products.

    REVISED DRIVER LINE-UP FOR NEW ERA AT TOYOTA GAZOO RACING Thursday 4 February 2016 TOYOTA GAZOO Racing today revealed the driver line-up which will lead it into a new era of World Endurance Championship competition. A completely new TS050 HYBRID car has been developed for this season, with significant changes to all areas, including monocoque, engine and hybrid system to meet the team’s ambitious performance targets. On the driver front, 2014 World Champions Anthony Davidson and Sébastien Buemi are again joined by Kazuki Nakajima for a second consecutive season together. In the other car, former TOYOTA Formula 1 racer Kamui Kobayashi steps up from test and reserve driver to a race seat for 2016, replacing the retired Alex Wurz.

  • Communiqué De Presse
    Communiqué De Presse 27 JUILLET 2014 Hungarian Grand Prix Race Report HUNGARIAN GRAND PRIX RACE REPORT Infiniti Red Bull Racing­Renault driver Daniel Ricciardo raced to victory in today’s absorbing Hungarian Grand Prix. Daniel’s win, the second for the team and for the Renault Energy F1­2014 Power Unit this season, came after a thrilling three­way battle for the lead with Ferrari’s Fernando Alonso and Mercedes’ Lewis Hamilton. Sebastian Vettel secured seventh position for Infiniti Red Bull Racing and Jean­Eric Vergne ninth for Scuderia Toro Rosso, putting three Renault Energy F1­2014 Power Units into the top ten. The result consolidates Infiniti Red Bull Racing’s second position in the constructors’ championship and Daniel Ricciardo’s third in the drivers’ race. Key race points: Daniel Ricciardo mastered the ever­evolving track conditions to move into the lead on lap 9 during the first safety car period. He retained the lead until the second deployment of the safety car and then pitted for a third time in the final third of the race. The Australian hunted down Rosberg for P3, then made a bravado move on Lewis Hamilton for second on lap 67. The next lap he outbraked Alonso into the first corner for the lead and eased out a cushion of five seconds to seal his second career win and the second for the Renault Energy F1­2014 Power Unit. Sebastian Vettel was sitting in the top three until the first safety car. Pulling into the pits a lap after the following pack dropped him down the field, into the middle of a close­fought battle for fourth position with Vergne, Rosberg and Hamilton.

  • Toyota Gazoo Racing Wins Le Mans
    Toyota Gazoo Racing Wins Le Mans June 17, 2018 TOYOTA GAZOO Racing wins the 86th Le Mans 24 Hours, taking an historic first victory at its 20th attempt. Sébastien Buemi, Kazuki Nakajima and Fernando Alonso in the #8 TS050 HYBRID started from pole position and took the chequered flag after 388 tense and often dramatic laps at the Circuit de La Sarthe to extend their lead in the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC). Mike Conway, Kamui Kobayashi and José María López, who led for long periods in the #7 TS050 HYBRID, made it a perfect result for TOYOTA with second place in front of 256,900 fans. TOYOTA, which had entered 47 cars at Le Mans prior to this weekend’s race and finished on the podium six times, becomes only the second Japanese manufacturer to win at La Sarthe, while Kazuki is the first Japanese driver to win in a Japanese car. The result is a culmination of intense and determined efforts by TOYOTA GAZOO Racing colleagues from Higashi-Fuji and Cologne to continually enhance its hybrid-electric technology, which won this weekend’s race using 35% less fuel than in 2012, when it returned to endurance racing. The two TS050 HYBRIDs were evenly matched throughout the 5,286km and swapped places several times during a race which featured its share of drama for the leaders. Two stop-go penalties for the #8 car, compared to one for the sister car, required an impressive night time stint from Fernando to come back into contention on a day when all drivers performed exceptionally in a high- pressure environment.

  • Meeting Template
    ***Updated to include quote from José María López*** TOYOTA GAZOO RACING WINS AT SILVERSTONE Sunday 16 April 2017 TOYOTA GAZOO Racing scored a dramatic victory in the 6 Hours of Silverstone after a thrilling opening round of the 2017 FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC). In a race defined by several rain showers, the #8 TS050 HYBRID of Sébastien Buemi, Anthony Davidson and Kazuki Nakajima earned victory inside the final 15 minutes in front of 50,200 spectators (weekend figure). As well as the usual winners’ trophies, the #8 crew also claimed the Royal Automobile Club International Tourist Trophy, first awarded in 1905 and won by motorsport legends such as Tazio Nuvolari, Graham Hill and Stirling Moss. The pole-sitting #7 TS050 HYBRID of Mike Conway, Kamui Kobayashi and José María López set the fastest lap of the race but lost over an hour due to an accident and finished 23rd. José María visited the circuit medical centre and then travelled to hospital for a precautionary scan which confirmed he suffered no injuries. Although the race started in cool, dry conditions and the two TOYOTAs ran in first and second, the weather soon intervened; after 45 minutes a shower struck and light rain fell intermittently after that. Close to the second pit stops, the #7 suffered an anti-roll bar problem which created handling difficulties and caused Kamui to lose performance and drop to fourth. Anthony, now at the wheel of the #8, took over the lead and a battle with the #2 Porsche. But with two hours completed, the weather worsened and created a very challenging situation.

  • Races to Remember – Canada 2011
    Races to Remember – Canada 2011 Hello and welcome to the final episode in the second series of Races to Remember. We’ve had a good run, haven’t we? Reliving the best races that F1 has to offer, particularly those that have been statistically sig- nificant or radically record-breaking. This is our last of seven shows and we’re looking at a race that broke its way into the record books in a number of different ways. We’re talking longest, most safety cars, most pit stops for a winner, every kind of crazy you can think of. You know the race I’m talking about, it’s Canada 2011. 2011 isn’t that long ago, but a quick refresher is required before we dive headlong into the Canadian Grand Prix. It was the seventh race of the season, following the Monaco Grand Prix which had been won by Se- bastian Vettel. The Red Bull driver was leading the championship, with McLaren’s Lewis Hamilton behind him. It wasn’t particularly close at that point, but there was still a good deal of season left for things to get competitive. Sebastian Vettel got his weekend off to a bad start by crashing during the Friday practice sessions but he made good by securing pole position, with two Ferrari drivers behind him – Fernando Alonso ahead of Fe- lipe Massa. Race day dawned very wet, and although as the start approached the downpour halted, the track was still very damp. The strategists had a headache straight away, whether to start on intermediate tyres or full wets, but the problem was solved when the FIA confirmed a safety car start.
