    FPT INDUSTRIAL CURSOR 13 ENGINE IS THE HEART OF THE 2019 DAKAR Turin, January 7, 2019 When the going gets tough, the tough get going. FPT Industrial is again taking part in the annual, world-famous Dakar rally, and is a 2019 sponsor, equipping the four trucks of the Petronas Team De Rooy IVECO with its Cursor 13 engines. One of the Petronas Team De Rooy IVECO vehicles with the FPT Industrial logo on the bonnet, representing the Brand's growing commitment to offer the best powertrain assistance The Dakar rally is one of the most extreme competitions in the world, but it is not for the fainthearted: it requires passion, technology and endurance, and the FPT Industrial Cursor 13 has all of these features. While the FPT Industrial engine was conceived to deliver high performance and top efficiency, all while respecting the environment, in industrial applications, it has also proven itself in racing. The IVECO vehicles’ Cursor 13 engines were especially engineered for such a challenging rally. The customization was undertaken at the FPT Industrial Arbon Research & Development center. The 13-liter engine is renowned for its reliability in on-road long haul missions, as well as in agricultural applications, such as for large tractors and harvesters. The IVECO vehicles’ Cursor 13 engines were especially engineered for such a challenging rally and can reach a maximum power of up to 1,000 hp. The engines have proven their reliability, robustness and top performance by conquering the most challenging stages and terrain in past Dakar rallies. FPT Industrial specialized technical staff will support the team for the entire duration of the rally.

  • TOYOTA GAZOO Racing Outlines 2019 Motorsports Activities(E
    February7, 2019 Toyota Motor Corporation GAZOO Racing Company TOYOTA GAZOO Racing Outlines 2019 Motorsports Activities TOYOTA GAZOO Racing is a racing company positioning motorsports activities as the basis of our quest to create ever-better cars. From products developed through these activities to the establishment of the GR Garage, TOYOTA GAZOO Racing’s motorsports activities have been promoted as a comprehensive method of increasing numbers of car fans. At last month’s North American International Auto Show in Detroit, we unveiled the new “Supra,” which is set to become the first global model in the GR series line-up. The new Supra incorporates the knowledge and know-how that TOYOTA GAZOO Racing has accumulated thus far, and has been developed with the goal of enabling customers to fully experience the joy of driving. We have positioned the new Supra as our flagship model and, by feeding back knowledge gained through motorsports activities into the development of new products, we intend to further expand the GR series line-up. In 2018, TOYOTA GAZOO Racing achieved the long-desired goal of winning the 24 Hours of Le Mans and also secured the WRC manufacturers’ title, demonstrating that the challenges we have embarked on are leading to concrete results. However, we will not rest on our laurels. In order to deliver the anticipation and excitement of driving to a wider audience, we will engage in the motorsports activities listed below in 2019. TOYOTA GAZOO Racing will compete in the 2019-2020 WEC season. (The driver line-up will be announced at a later date.)With team line-ups, we will also compete in the Nürburgring 24 Hours Endurance Race and other races in Japan respectively.

    Media Information PRODUCTION VEHICLE CATEGORY WILL BE A COMPETITIVE STAR-STUDDED AFFAIR AT BRONKHORSTSPRUIT 400 The Production Vehicle category at the Bronkhorstspruit 400, the fourth round of the South African National Cross Country Series (SACCS) that takes place on 2 and 3 August, will be a star-studded affair as well-known motorsport personalities make their debut in the series while a few regulars will be playing musical chairs at the event. The 2019 season reached the halfway mark just over a month ago with the Toyota Desert Race 1000 in Botswana and after three days of racing and a thousand kilometres later, the standings looked somewhat different than before the gruelling marathon event. With only three events remaining, there is not much time left to claim as many points as possible towards the various championship titles. Add to that the unknown factor of new blood at the Bronkhorstspruit 400, an exciting 400 kilometres of racing can be expected. It was quite a dramatic and emotional overall TDR 1000 victory for Chris Visser and Philip Herselman (Atlas Copco Toyota) as it was Herselman’s final event before relocating to Singapore. Visser, the 2010 Overall Production Vehicle Champion and Herselman teamed up during the 2016 season and winning in Botswana was quite a memorable farewell gift. Herselman will be replaced by the quadruple Special Vehicle Navigator’s champion, Danie Stassen who read the notes for Richard Leeke Jnr in recent events. Stassen won his championship titles alongside Evan Hutchison in a BAT in 2012 and 2013 and then again in 2015 and 2016.

Victory means Sanchez’s side have secured themselves a top two finish in the group and their win also ensures Saudi Arabia will progress to the last 16. The teams face off on Thursday to determine who will top the group, with Qatar’s huge win meaning a draw in Abu Dhabi will be enough to take pole position.

Voter registration for South Africans living abroad is also taking place between 1 – 4 February 2019 at South Africa’s foreign missions. Registration will take place during office hours at South Africa’s high commissions, embassies and consulates worldwide. South Africans go to the polls for the country’s sixth national and provincial elections in 2019. To encourage South Africa’s youth to register and vote in the upcoming elections, the Electoral Commission has launched an innovative communication and education campaign. “The young people of South Africa comprise an increasingly powerful and crucial segment of our economy, our culture, our democracy and our country. But until they register and vote, they are unable exercise their right to participate in choosing the future of our country,” says Electoral Commission Chairperson, Glen Mashinini. The campaign features young South Africans from all walks of life expressing their reasons for the importance of voting in the upcoming elections under a newly-created word: Xsê. “We zoned in on a phrase that is uniquely South African. It’s cool and can be used easily by anyone across the culture lines. It’s a call to action phrase, one that prompts you to take notice and take action,” explained Chief Electoral Officer, Sy Mamabolo. “Xsê is a multi-culturally understood colloquial South African term that can be used in many situations, especially when one wants to be heard. Elections allow for an individual’s voice to be heard hence we made it for the individual to own.
