Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR Pro: Redefining the Limits of Performance Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR Pro: Redefining the limits of performance • Fully-optimised, track-only version of world’s most extreme hypercar • Increased power and torque combined with further weight reductions • Significantly increased downforce from all-new aerodynamic package • Capable of achieving lap performance to rival recent Formula One cars • Delivery schedule for 2020 16 November 2017, Gaydon: Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR Pro is an extraordinary track-only evolution of the most extreme Aston Martin in history. Developed in parallel with the road car, but freed from the constraints and considerations of road use, the Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR Pro is the ultimate expression of performance. The brainchild of Adrian Newey - the most successful Formula One designer of all-time - and the product of the unique collaboration between Aston Martin, Red Bull Advanced Technologies and project partner AF Racing, just 25 Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR Pros will be built. Deliveries are expected in 2020. All cars are sold. The most obvious changes have been made to the Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR Pro’s exterior. All the aerodynamic surfaces have been revised in the pursuit of significantly increased downforce, including the addition of much larger front and rear wing elements, together with revised active aerodynamic control strategies tailored for the demands of track driving. The hypercar’s naturally-aspirated 6.5-litre Cosworth-built V12 engine develops more power and torque - exact figures will be released in due course - thanks to a significant engine recalibration and the modification of the road car’s emission control systems. The output of the Rimac Energy Recovery System remains unchanged, but its control systems will be re-programmed. The AMR Pro runs on wheels of a smaller diameter than the road car (18in front and rear) in order to facilitate the fitment of Michelin racing tyres, which are made to the same specification as those used by LMP1 cars in the World Endurance Championship. The AMR Pro also features F1TM inspired race-spec carbon-carbon brakes as their performance characteristics are perfectly suited to the extremes of track use. The opportunity has also been taken to make further weight savings, both through the removal of extraneous items such as the heater/de-mister blower and infotainment screens fitted to the road car, and through the fitment of new ultra-lightweight track-specific components. These include polycarbonate windscreen (with heater elements) and side windows, a lighter construction of carbon fibre bodywork, new suspension uprights and carbon fibre wishbones, plus moulded race seats in place of the adjustable road car items. The AMR Pro’s exhaust system will also be lighter than that fitted to the road car due to the minimal silencing requirements. The result of this unprecedented pursuit of performance is a genuinely mind-blowing car. One with a higher top speed (predicted to be close to 250mph), coupled to the ability to sustain cornering forces in excess of 3.3g and braking deceleration of more than 3.5g. According to Red Bull’s extensive simulation work the Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR Pro will be capable of achieving lap times to rival those of a contemporary F1 or LMP1 car - pace previously unthinkable in a car derived from a fully homologated road car. Given the car’s extraordinary capabilities Valkyrie AMR Pro customers will be taken through an intensive and comprehensive driver development programme. Tailored to their individual experience and skill levels, owners will have access to the same facilities as Aston Martin Red Bull Racing’s F1TM drivers. This includes time in the simulator and professional on-track tuition, plus programmes to improve their physical fitness. They will then be ready to enjoy their cars to the full with a series of dedicated track events held at some of the world’s most prestigious race tracks. Red Bull Technology’s Chief Technical Officer, Adrian Newey, said: “While it is endowed with extraordinary performance, it has always been vitally important to me that the Valkyrie functions well as a true road car, and that naturally comes with some constraints. However, with the track- only Valkyrie AMR Pro we have the freedom to create an extreme evolution that makes no such concessions. While the core elements of the road and track versions are shared, every aspect of the AMR Pro – aerodynamics, chassis, powertrain and weight – has been optimised to significantly extend the performance envelope. It offers a level of track performance significantly beyond any previous two seat closed roof car.” Dr Andy Palmer, Aston Martin President and Chief Executive Officer, adds: “Valkyrie has always been about pushing the limits and redefining the possible. The road car will set new benchmarks for performance, engineering and technology - a hypercar in the truest sense - and with the track- only Valkyrie AMR Pro those limits will be pushed further still. It’s a remarkable project. One that’s propelling Aston Martin and 25 of our most passionate customers into a new and extraordinary realm”. - ENDS - www.astonmartin.com/media Global Headquarters Gaydon The Americas Simon Sproule Matt Clarke VP and Chief Marketing Officer PR & Brand Communications Manager Mobile: +44 (0)7896 621779 Mobile: +1 949 870 5942 E-Mail: [email protected] E-Mail: [email protected] Kevin Watters Continental Europe Senior Communications Manager Bastian Schaefer Mobile: +44 (0)7764 386683 Marketing and Communications Manager E-Mail: [email protected] Mobile: +49 (0)160 969 59241 E-Mail: [email protected] David Adams Jörg Machalitzky Press Officer, Product Communications Marketing and Communications Executive Mobile: +44 (0)7825 863880 Mobile: +49 (0) 172 668 4038 E-Mail: [email protected] E-Mail: [email protected] Grace Barnie China Press Officer, Corporate Communications Rachel Guo Mobile: +44 (0)7880 903490 Marketing & Communications Manager E-Mail: [email protected] Mobile: + 86 156 0162 8312 E-Mail: [email protected] Raphaele Loheac-Derboulle Daisy Zhuang Press Officer, Lifestyle Communications PR Executive Mobile: +44 (0)7801 265126 Tel: +86 134 8259 9317 E-Mail: [email protected] E-Mail: [email protected] Sophie Tobin Asia Pacific Press Officer Dan Redpath Mobile: +44 (0)7812 679785 Senior Manager, Marketing & PR E-Mail: [email protected] Mobile: +65 8586 8083 E-Mail: [email protected] Middle East Sandra Schneider Hiromi Sakamoto Tel: +971 50 524 0120 Press Officer – Japan E-Mail: [email protected] Mobile: +81 (0)80 7950 2033 E-Mail: [email protected] Pei Leng Tan Marcoms Executive – South East Asia Mobile +65 9726 7986 E-Mail: [email protected] .

  • Porsche 919 Hybrid English.Indd
    Porsche 919 Hybrid Return to top-level sport Porsche is making its comeback to the top-level motorsport arena: with the new 919 Hybrid the sports car brand is sending a platform for pioneering technology to the top category of the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) with the undisputed seasonal highlight of the 24-hour Le Mans race. Porsche's reputation precedes it at this venue: with 16 overall victories under its belt, the brand holds the record for this, the most famous endurance race in the world. In 2014 Porsche is returning to the top-level class endurance race after a 16-year absence - namely Le Mans Prototypes (LMP1). Matthias Müller, Chairman of the Executive Board of Porsche AG explains: "The new and revolutionary efficiency regulations for this class were what prompted us to take this step. In 2014 it is not going to be the fastest contender who is going to win the sports car world championship and Le Mans, but the car that gets furthest with the defined amount of energy. And it is precisely this challenge that the automotive industry has to face. The 919 Hybrid is like a high speed research laboratory and the most complex racing car Porsche has ever built." The new WEC regulations for the LMP1 racing car gives engineers an unusual amount of leeway and demands pioneering technology, such as hybridisation, downsizing engines and consistent lightweight construction. This is all particularly relevant for the development of future generations of factory-spec sports cars. Maximum sporting performance and highest efficiency are at the heart of "Porsche Intelligent Performance".
