Vitaphone Racing Date: 4 October 2009 Vitaphone Racing Team is the champion, 11th title for Maserati Paul Ricard, 4th October 2009 - With the second place obtained by Alex Müller and Miguel Ramos and a fifth place by Andrea Bertolini and Michael Bartels, Vitaphone Racing Team mathematically wins the fifth consecutive title among the racing teams. This is an unprecedented result in the FIA GT Championship, giving the Maserati MC12 eleven titles. Since 2005 the MC12 has won: two FIA GT Manufacturers Cups in 2005 and 2007; three FIA GT Drivers Championships in 2006 (Michael Bartels/Andrea Bertolini), in 2007 (Thomas Biagi) and in 2008 (Michael Bartels/Andrea Bertolini); five FIA GT Teams Championships in 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009 (Vitaphone Racing Team); one Citation Cup for gentlemen drivers in 2007 (Ben Aucott) and three victories at the prestigious Spa 24 Hours (2005, 2006, and 2008). The outcome can be considered positive in what was deemed the toughest circuit for the Modena race cars. A place on the podium for Müller/Ramos is the fair conclusion to a good race, run with authority in the initial stages and in the end influenced by the return of Ruffier/Longin's Corvette. The Bertolini/Bartels duo's fifth place, together with the withdrawal of Kumpen/Hezemans, gives the reigning champions a four-point lead in the driver's ranking prior to the last round of the championship, scheduled for 25 October in Zolder. The third Maserati MC12, driven by the Pier Guidi/Bobbi duo, also ran a good race, arriving sixth, defending the colors of Vitaphone Racing Team DHL. For the record, the race was won by Bernoldi/Streiff on the Corvette Z06. Paul Ricard Length of circuit: 5842 m Race results: 1. Bernoldi/Streiff - Corvette Z06 - 57 laps 2. Müller /Ramos - Maserati MC12 - 15.512 down 3. Ruffier/Longin - Corvette Z06 - 16.820 down 5. Bertolini/Bartels - Maserati MC12 - 55.004 down 6.

With less than four weeks remaining between now and the season-opener at the state-of-the-art Losail International Raceway, the organisers are busy undertaking testing and preparation work for the field of 15 race cars that will contest the first four-wheeled motor race ever held in Qatar. Ahead of the move to a brand new purpose-designed facility, the Grand Prix MastersWorld Series is making temporary shared use of a facility at Silverstone (Northamptonshire, UK) and it was from there that last week ' s nine car shakedown was successfully undertaken by the three new driver signings. Bob Berridge, Head of Race Operations: " It ' s been an extremely busy time for us recently as we continue to push hard in preparation for our season opener in Qatar. Signing new drivers, new sponsors, new personnel and preparing for our up- and-coming move to a new facility are just a few examples of the behind-the-scenes activity we have all been preoccupied with recently.

  • 28 September 2007 Vitaphone Racing and Playteam Sarafree Go Head To
    Date: 28 September 2007 Vitaphone Racing and Playteam Sarafree go head to head for the Team title at Nogaro The Paul Armagnac circuit in Nogaro, France, will be the setting for the ninth and penultimate round of the FIA GT International Championship. A week on from Brno, where Maserati claimed the GT1 Manufacturers' Cup, the Maserati MC12s will have to overcome the tough challenge that the French track provides. This will be the first time that the circuit is being used for this series. It is a challenging one and the track is fairly narrow. Saying this, overtaking is possible at certain spots. Not overly quick, Nogaro brings to mind Varano de' Melegari. It was inaugurated in 1960 and originally measured 1.8 kilometres but has been lengthened in recent years. The last modifications, in 1989, took the overall length to 3.635 km. The race could see Vitaphone Racing (currently leading on 91 points) take the Team title if they manage to score two points more than Playteam Sarafree (second on 57 points). In either case, the winner will be a team that races in the Maserati MC12. Since 2005, the year in which the Modenese cars began competing in the FIA GT from race 1, Maserati (or a team that uses the MC12) has claimed at least two of the three FIA GT championship titles on offer. The Drivers' crown is still there for the taking. The championship was blown wide open by the Brno result. Thomas Biagi (Vitaphone Racing), Andrea Bertolini and Andrea Piccini (Playteam Sarafree) lead with 47 points, three more than the Christian Montanari/Miguel Ramos (Vitaphone Racing), pairing that won in the Czech Republic.

  • Maserati Will Be
    Date: 22 July 2009 Maserati will be playing its winning hand for success at Spa's 24 Hours The FIA GT Championship is getting ready to experience the most important race of the season this weekend: Spa's 24 Hours. Belgium's classic endurance race, won by the MC12 on three occasions in 2005, 2006 and 2008, is a decisive race to guarantee a chance at winning the championship. Whoever wins at Spa usually also wins the championship. Current ranking has Vitaphone Racing Team's reigning champions Michael Bartels and Andrea Bertolini (with MC12 number 1) in top place. As mentioned earlier, at Spa's 24 Hours Maserati has an enviable "curriculum" made up of two double wins (2005 and 2008), one top place (2006) and one second place (2007). At last year's race, three Maseratis ended up in the first four places. Currently also in the top rank in the Teams' classification, Vitaphone Racing Team will unleash its three MC12s to try to continue the winning tradition. Bartels/Bertolini/Sarrazin/Negraõ will take their turns at driving MC12 no. 1, while Ramos/Müller/Van De Poele/Lamy will each get behind the wheel of car no. 2. The third MC12, sporting the Vitaphone Racing Team DHL colors in Belgium, shall be at the hand of Pier Guidi/Lemeret/Vosse/Rosenblad. The reigning champs will be backed by Stephane Sarrazin, who shared their victory during the 2008 Spa race, as well as by Alexander Negraõ, a Brazilian driver who raced last year in the championship paired up with Miguel Ramos.

    Campeonato FIA GT – 24 horas de Spa-Francorchamps 4ª posição e 9 pontos para Miguel Ramos na prova mais dura do campeonato FIA GT Naquela que é a mais longa corrida do Campeonato Mundial FIA GT, Miguel Ramos, Cristian Montanari, Stéphane Lemeret e Matteo Bobbi aos comandos do Maserati MC12 Nº2 preparado pela Vitaphone Racing, terminaram na 4ª posição. Com este resultado o piloto português somou mais 9 pontos, totalizando 29 e a quarta posição no Campeonato Mundial de Pilotos - GT1, Decorreu neste fim-de-semana, no mítico circuito belga de Spa-Francorchamps, as 24 horas FIA GT onde Miguel Ramos, em pareceria com Cristian Montanari, Stéphane Lemeret e Matteo Bobbi, voltou a correr para alcançar um bom resultado. “À quarta foi de vez” afirmou o piloto luso referindo-se ao facto de nas anteriores edições desta prova de resistência em que participou (em 2003 e 2004 com um Sallen, e em 2006 com um Aston Martin), não ter conseguido concluir as 24 horas. De referir que é este o circuito predilecto de Ramos, onde, aliás, venceu a prova de 1000 Km Spa-Francorchamps em 2005 ao volante de um Ferrari. Num fim-de-semana onde as condições climatéricas não foram as melhores, a equipa do Maserati MC12 Nº2 largou da sétima posição para, em pouco mais de sete horas, alcançar a quarta posição, usufruindo do piso ainda seco. Correndo com uma estratégia adaptada à realidade da prova – onde os imprevistos acontecem ao longo das 24 horas – a equipa conseguiu afastar-se dos muitos acidentes que marcaram este fim-de-semana, sendo que após catorze horas de prova a chuva apareceu, mantendo-se até ao final.

  • Miguel Ramos San Luis 23 De Novembro
    Campeonato FIA GT 2008 10ª prova – San Luis Miguel Ramos termina o Campeonato no 3º lugar. A Vitaphone Racing consegue o melhor resultado de sempre. Título de Campeã por equipas, Titulo de pilotos através de Bartels e Bertolini e a outra dupla Miguel Ramos / Alexandre Negrão em 3º lugar do Campeonato. Domingo, 23 de Novembro de 2008. O Campeonato FIA GT visitou pela primeira o Hemisfério Sul e o título de Campeão de pilotos decidiu-se nesta ultima corrida do ano, no fantástico circuito de “Potrero de los Funes”, província de San Luis (Argentina). Este circuito, com 6,270km, é o segundo mais longo do Campeonato FIA GT, logo a seguir a SPA. Um circuito lindíssimo, entre várias montanhas e com um lago no meio, que teve a visita de cerca de 100.000 pessoas para a corrida desta tarde. A Vitaphone Racing conseguiu o desejado título de campeã de marcas na corrida de Zolder em Outubro, e focou atenções na possibilidade de juntar o título de pilotos em San Luis. Assim, as duas formações da Vitaphone Racing tinham motivações diversas para a corrida desta tarde na Argentina. Enquanto a dupla Bartels e Bertolini, tinha tudo a seu favor para conseguir o titulo de pilotos bastando-lhes para isso 3 pontos, Miguel Ramos e Alexandre Negrão tinham ainda uma ténue possibilidade de conseguirem o vice-campeonato, necessitando recuperar cinco pontos em relação à dupla Hezemans/Gollin do Corvette, que por sua vez estava ainda na luta pelo titulo. A estratégia da Vitaphone era simples; por um lado garantir que Bartels e Bertolini terminassem a prova pelo menos em sexto e que o outro Maserati conseguisse ficar o mais à frente possível do Corvette de Hezemans e Gollin.

Here Alexander Negraõ ranked fourth with 1'11"916, the best result among the cars with ballast on board.

Tomorrow it will start at the fifth row. The third MC12, driven by gentleman driver Alain Ferté from the Team JMB, is ranked 11th and is starting from sixth row. The race is scheduled for tomorrow. the innovative formula, already tried out successfully in 2007, consists of a 2-hour evening race, which will start at 7.50 pm.
