Media information 13.00 BST, 28 September 2015 KENNY BRACK SIGNED AS DEVELOPMENT DRIVER WITH McLAREN AUTOMOTIVE The relentless research and development programme at McLaren Automotive has been further strengthened with the appointment of Kenny Brack as Test and Development Driver. With the introduction of the Sports Series, McLaren Automotive has recently confirmed its three tier product range as the brand extends its offering into new markets. The development plan to support the expansion of groundbreaking products is expected to account for 20 percent of overall turnover in 2015. Kenny Brack, 49, joins McLaren with extensive motorsport experience, and a racing career including securing the Indy Racing League Drivers Championship in 1998. The following year, the Swedish driver joined motor racing’s elite by adding his name to the famous Borg Warner Trophy, claiming victory at the Indy 500. With this result, he joined McLaren heroes including Johnny Rutherford, Mark Donohue and Emerson Fittipaldi. His versatile driver career spans more than three decades and includes an X-Games Rally/Racing gold medal and numerous other victories both in racing and rallying. Most recently, he has helped prepare and race a number of notable historic cars, claiming victories at the Goodwood Revival in 2011 and 2013 at the wheel of a Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe and Ford GT40 respectively. No stranger to a McLaren, Kenny Brack has taken to the track in models old and new over the past few years. In 2014, he drove the famous Goodwood Hill at the Festival of Speed with the McLaren F1 GTR ‘Longtail’, and joined the grid at the 73rd Goodwood Members’ Meeting which saw 16 examples of the McLaren F1 GTR take to the track. This summer, he joined McLaren Automotive as a guest driver at the Festival of Speed to pilot the track-only McLaren P1™ GTR. Kenny Brack joins the talented team of test and development drivers at McLaren Automotive. This group of highly experienced drivers is dedicated to the on-going development of future McLaren models within the three tier product range, and is further strengthened with this latest addition. The next models to be launched will be the 570S Coupé and 540C Coupé, with first deliveries before the end of the year. These two models are most attainable McLaren models to date, and will introduce McLaren race- derived technologies and supercar driving exhilaration to the sports car market. Commenting on his appointment, Kenny Brack explained: ‘I am extremely proud to join the McLaren family in a development role for the new product. Every McLaren is developed and built by a team of very passionate people, and to drive one is a true driver's occasion. Throughout my career I've been very passionate about car development, so to work with McLaren feels like a great fit. I have every confidence that future McLaren models will continue to put a smile on the face on anyone who drives one.’ Mike Flewitt, McLaren Automotive Chief Executive Officer added: ‘Kenny joins McLaren at a very exciting time, with the brand going from strength to strength. We have a relentless programme in place for the on-going development of the future product line- up, and Kenny’s experience and expertise will help ensure that each model is as exciting and engaging as a McLaren should be.’ Ends Notes to Editors: A selection of high resolution images accompanying this release is available to download from the McLaren Automotive media site – cars.mclaren.press.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: CONTACT: Barby MacGowan, Media Pro Int'l for General Racing, Ltd. , McLaren Will be Featured Marque for 2011 SONOMA, CALIF. (June 6, 2010) – At the conclusion of an epic first-annual Sonoma Historic Motorsports Festival , organizer General Racing, Ltd . announced that McLaren will be the event’s featured marque for the event’s second edition in 2011. The legendary name has graced the halls of motorsports since its famed founder Bruce McLaren of New Zealand founded the McLaren racing team in 1963. “McLaren, like Ferrari and Porsche and other great names in motorsports, created the bloodlines that we worship today in historic automobile racing,” said General Racing’s President Steve Earle, who for four decades has devoted his life to organizing historic car racing events and is the originator of the Wine Country Classic that preceded the Sonoma Historic Motorsports Festival for 24 years. “Choosing McLaren as our marque means we will pay special tribute to the name, the teams, and the cars that McLaren has produced in the past and will produce in the future, adding another dimension of enjoyment for both competitors and spectators.” The 2010 Sonoma Historic Motorsports Festival, held at Infineon Raceway June 5-6, hosted 375 historic race cars, some dating as far back as 1915, in a series of “time capsule” races over the weekend of June 5-6. “These beautiful machines on the track combined with the Sonoma wine country experience makes our historic car weekend unlike anything else on our schedule,” said Infineon Raceway President and General Manager Steve Page.

    Under the Hood, March 2021 in the Season Finale of the 2020 IMSA

    Under the Hood, March 2021 In the season finale of the 2020 IMSA racing season, Bill Auberlen, BMW driver in class GTD (Daytona), bested Scott Pruett for the most wins (61) in IMSA history. For the 2021 season Pruett was downgraded from a silver to bronze rated driver. Pruett started racing carts at age 8, moved to sedan racing in 1984, and won his first IMSA championship in 1986. Since Pruett basically retired from racing in 2018, the driver rating downgrade is mostly meaningless, and probably driven by his 60th birthday in 2020. So what is this silver vs. bronze rating? At one time it seems amateur racers competed in SCCA events and pro drivers were in other racing series. It was probably never quite that simple as SCCA was the sponsor of the Can Am racing series which featured drivers Al Unser Jr, Mario Andretti, Mark Donohue & Dan Gurney among the many notable drivers. Amateur, or “gentlemen racers” have always been crucial in most racing. Luigi Chinetti won the 24 hours of Le Mans in 1949. The car owner, Lord Selsdon, drove a single 72-minute period, about 5% of the race. Did Lord Selsdon hire a hot-shoe to win the race, so that Selsdon could also share in the win notoriety? Locally, we know a couple that raced for several years in the Star Mazda series, open wheel formula cars powered by the latest generation of Mazda rotary engine. He went on to race at least two years at Le Mans competing in the LMP2 class. This is the class below the fastest cars LMP (Prototype) and typically a bit faster than the class that would have included the Corvette race cars.
