The 918 Spyder. It’s not the easiest thing to write sports car history and, at the same time, redefine the future of the sports car. However, our engineers would not be happy with anything less. The goal was clear: a super sports car. The parameters: the most efficient drive possible combined with an extremely high output. The initial spark: a high-performance hybrid with a highly emotive V8 racing engine and two additional electric machines (motors/generators). The crucial step: the combination of three drives delivering a total output of 652 kW (887 hp) with incredible torque of up to 1,280 Nm. The car also represents the future of efficiency. Thanks to a series of measures, such as recuperation, the electric machines help to reduce fuel consumption to just 3.3–3.0 litres per 100 km when an efficient driving style is adopted. ‘E-boost’ and an additional output of 210 kW (286 hp) are also included. The map switch controls four different driving modes plus a ‘Hot Lap’ configuration to ensure optimum interaction between the electric machines and combustion engine depending on the driving scenario and style. Simply groundbreaking. Our engineers then went one step further. The 918 Spyder features an extremely lightweight construction derived from the world of motorsport. Both the load-bearing structures of the 918 Spyder, the monocoque and subframe, and its outer skin are made of carbon fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP). Combined with high-end technologies such as rear-axle steering, active aerodynamics and the first ‘top pipes’ ever featured on a production vehicle one thing is clear: pioneering performance is no longer a thing of the future – it’s right here, right now. 918 Spyder1): fuel consumption combined: 3.3–3.0 l/100 km · CO2 emissions combined: 79–70 g/km · power consumption: 13.0–12.5 kWh/100 km. 04 05 >> 918 Spyder << A father from Weissach. A mother from Le Mans. The 918 Spyder and motorsport tradition. The 918 Spyder possesses all the qualities of a flawless racing car: performance, efficiency, lightweight construction, purism. Along with something very special: history. It all began with a white piece of paper on which the 918 Spyder was created from scratch. In order to understand the direction the 918 Spyder is taking in the 21st century, it’s useful to take a look back at our racing past. Porsche has always been closely linked with motorsport. Since 1948 – and from the very first second. Back then, it was a racing version of the Porsche 356 that secured a class win at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. One of the first of more than 30,000 victories on the track to date. The principle remains the same today: small, agile sports cars with a comparatively low cubic capacity, but a great deal of eagerness to perform. This pinprick strategy soon turned into sporting dominance. 1970 and 1971 saw the start of a new era in Le Mans with formidable overall wins by the Porsche 917. With the 918 Spyder, Porsche has taken this heritage and applied it to the road. 918 Spyder1): fuel consumption combined: 3.3–3.0 l/100 km · Another model from which the 918 Spyder is derived: the RS Spyder. Its V8 unit formed the basis for the high-revving engine in the performance hybrid. CO2 emissions combined: 79–70 g/km · 918 Spyder in Porsche Salzburg film-coated decals power consumption: 13.0–12.5 kWh/100 km. The carbon fibre monocoque laid important foundations for the body design and its lightweight chassis provided the template for the 918 Spyder chassis concept.

In the Trofeo Nazionale CSAI GT3, the Maserati Lights stormed a path through the competition with three cars that secured all the places on the championship podium. Andrea Palma and Danilo Zampaloni were the overall winners in their AF Corse car.

  • Date: 26 July 2007 Maserati Competitive After the First Free Practice Sessions At
    Date: 26 July 2007 Maserati competitive after the first free practice sessions at Spa The FIA GT championship is about to enter its most important weekend of the season: the Spa 24 Hour. The classic Belgian endurance race will be especially competitive this year given the high level of the crews that have entered. The Maserati MC12s have been in good form on the past two occasions the race has been run. They claimed a great one-two in 2005 (first place for Bartels/Scheider/Van de Poele, second for Bertolini/Wendlinger/Peter). 2006 was another fantastic year with Bartels/Bertolini/Van de Poele's success at the end of a thrilling tussle with the Aston Martin fielded by Phoenix Racing. The Vitaphone Racing Team, winners in both 2005 and 2006, will have Bartels/Biagi/Van De Poele/Lamy in the number 1 MC12. Taking care of the drive in the number 2 car will be the Ramos/Montanari/Bobbi/Lémeret crew. The driver from Belgium will once more be flanked by Michael Bartels, who he topped the podium with in the last two races. Pedro Lamy will be climbing into the MC12 again after his victory in the 6 Hours of Vallelunga in 2006 when in Racing Box colours. Matteo Bobbi, the 2003 FIA GT champion alongside Thomas Biagi, will be making his debut in the Modenese GT. Another driver making his first appearance in the MC12 is Stéphane Lémeret, the Belgian who took second in the last 24 Hours. The Scuderia Playteam Sarafree will be appearing for the first time at Spa in the FIA GT.

  • Ferrari70.Com 1967 / 1976
    1967 / 1976 Three Ferraris, two 330 P4s and a 412 P secure the first three places in the 1967 24 Hours of Daytona Ferrari’s refusal to agree to sell the company to Ford in 1963 gave rise to an intense sporting rivalry, with endurance races serving as the backdrop for the many duels between these two giants. In the 1963, ‘64 and ‘65 editions of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Ferrari dominated the podium. However, in 1966, it was the turn of the more powerful Fords. The two headed to Daytona in early 1967 for the first round of the International Constructors’ Championship (as the World Sport Championship was renamed for two years), with two separate classifications for GTs and prototypes. In order to close the gap on Ford, Ferrari spent the winter of 1966 working hard in Maranello. The new 330 P4 was designed by Mauro Forghieri, with a number of P3 models being updated too, becoming 330 P3/ P4s. The abbreviation 412 P identified the customer version of the latter vehicle. Intended for use by private teams, it lacked a number of strategic components such as the injection system, which was replaced by normal carburettors. The 330 P4 boasted sophisticated aerodynamics, developed in the wind tunnels at Pininfarina and at the Polytechnic in Stuttgart, Germany, the city where both Mercedes and Porsche are based. The P4 had a lower Cd than its predecessors, with greater downforce and a very low nose section. The 4-litre, 450 hp V12 engine featured double overhead camshafts and 3 valves per cylinder.

  • Sam Posey's BMW Days.. .And Nights the Sole American on BMW's Legendary IMSA Team of 1975, Sam Posey Brought Talent and Charisma to the Motorsport Campaign
    people Sam Posey's BMW days.. .and nights The sole American on BMW's legendary IMSA team of 1975, Sam Posey brought talent and charisma to the Motorsport campaign. By William Edgar Photography by Willlam Edgar, courtesy BMW NA mong BMW fans, Sam Posey may have gained his biggest fame rac- ing BMW's so-called "Batmobile" CSL coupes during the mid-1970s, but Posey is far more than just a racing driver. He's a man of remarkable versatility and expres- sion, traits that began in a youthful gift for words and art, and which took form, from adolescence on, in an escalating love of cars. His earliest, a home-built coaster named for a Connecticut lake edging the family estate, gave Sam hsfirst grasp of wheeled control and speed. What he called "The Mudge Pond Express" would serve again years later as the title for his stunning autobiography. Posey's candid book reveals an ungainly, overweight lad of patrician privilege who discovers both discipline and joy in the unlikely and perilous world of motor racing. Its pages have long delighted readers with his motorsport experiences, transporting them through the years from next-door Lime Rock to more distant Watkins Glen, Nassau, Sebring, Indianapolis, far-off Australia and Le Mans. Its chapters end where this story begins, at Kyalami, the South African grand , prix circuit to which Sam was summoned to test for what would become not only a sem- 7 inal step in his driving career, but an auspi- h cious American debut for BMW racing. To put BMW on the North American map, Motorsport brought over its ETCC- winning CSLs and readied them for IMSA competition in 1975.
