    BMW Corporate Communications United SportsCar Championship BMW Team RLL misses out on podium in Sebring – BMW Z4 GTLMs finish fourth and eighth. Sebring (US), 21st March 2015. Lucas Luhr (DE), John Edwards (US) and Jens Klingmann (DE) finished fourth in the GTLM class for BMW Team RLL in the 12 Hours of Sebring (US), the second round of the United SportsCar Championship (USCC). The three drivers completed a total of 329 laps with the number 24 BMW Z4 GTLM. The Corvette crew of Antonio García (ES), Jan Magnussen (DK) and Ryan Briscoe (AU) claimed GTLM victory. With temperatures of up to 33 degrees Celsius, the endurance classic at the Sebring International Raceway turned out to be a truly hot affair. For most parts of the race, the GTLM field was running closely together, delivering some gripping racing action to the American fans. Following a final full-course yellow with two hours to go, the cars on the lead lap were once again bunched up before entering the decisive phase of the race. With final stint driver Luhr at the wheel, the number 24 car crossed the line in fourth after 12 hours of racing, despite a problem with the power steering in the final stages of the race. For Dirk Werner (DE), Bill Auberlen (US) and Augusto Farfus (BR) the race didn’t go according to plan with the number 25 BMW Z4 GTLM. After five and a half hours, Werner entered the pit lane with a damaged front subframe, running in sixth at that time. The necessary repair work cost the trio more than ten laps, and they dropped to the very back of the GTLM field.

  • Kausi Toi Mestaruuksia
    Kausi toi mestaruuksia. Terveisiä kilpa-autoilun maailmasta. Kausi 2008 oli täynnä jännittäviä tapahtumia ja tulok- set mukavia. Ohessa kooste kauden tapahtumista. Kaudeksi 2008 valitsimme kilpailuluokaksi Formula Re- nault 2.0 –luokan ja tiimiksi Tommi Suvannon P1 Mo- torsportin. Tommilla on vuosien kokemus formuloista ja hyviä tuloksia saavutuksenaan. Autoksi sain tehdasuuden laitteen, jonka Tommi haki Italiasta maaliskuussa. Italiasta auto vietiin suoraan Eng- lantiin Alan Dockingin pajalle. Uuden auton saattaminen kilpailukuntoon vei 4-5 mekaanikolta 7 päivää ja työtun- teja kertyi keskimäärin 14 tuntia per päivä. Ei siis ihan pikkujuttu ottaa uutta Formulaa käyttöön. Työn tekemi- nen ammattilaisten avustuksella kuitenkin oli kannatta- vaa sillä yhtään teknistä vikaa ei kauden aikana ollut ja laite oli kilpailukykyinen. Ajoimme ensimmäisen ”Shake Down -testin Silverstonen Stowe radalla ja seuraavana päivänä osallistumme Englannin FR 2.0 sarjan viralli- seen testipäivään. Iltapäivällä vauhtimme oli jo kärjen tasoa ja pienet ongelmat ratkaistuna. Suuret kiitokset Alan Dockingille ja hänen henkilökun- nalleen tästä korvaavattomasta avusta. Näillä eväillä oli hyvä suunnistaa kohti Suomea. Ensimmäinen Formula Renault –kisa Riikassa 3-4.5.2008 Suomessa ajettujen Alastaron ja Vetelin testien jälkeen oli suuntanamme Latvian Riika. Siellä oli tarkoitus ajaa ensimmäinen NEZ-sarjan osakilpailu. Se oli samalla mi- nun ensimmäinen kilpailuviikonloppuni Formula Renault –luokan autolla. Riikan rata oli erittäin hieno. Keskinopeus radalla oli 170 km/h ja rataa ympäröi noin metrin korkuiset betonivallit. Radalla ei ollut juuri ollenkaan turva-aluetta, joka tarkoitti ulosajon merkitsevän täystuhoa. Yksi luokkani autoista osuikin seinään, eikä sillä sen jälkeen ole ajettu. Testit Riikassa sujui hyvin ja olin koko testien ajan no- pein, vaikka olin ensimmäistä kertaa radalla. Aika-ajot sujui testien tapaan hyvin ja otin paalut molempiin lähtöi- hin.

    BMW Motorsport 2016 BMW MOTORSPORT www.press. Sheer JUNIOR PROGRAMME bmwgroup-sport.com Driving Pleasure MEDIA INFORMATION. BMW MOTORSPORT JUNIOR PROGRAMME. TALENT PROMOTION IN GT RACING. The development of promising talented drivers enjoys a long tradition at BMW Motorsport. In 2014 a new multi-level GT junior concept had been introduced: the BMW Motorsport Junior Programme. This realignment saw BMW Motorsport shift its development of young drivers back to the GT and touring car sector. In Formula racing the concept bore fruit for many years in Formula BMW and the Formula BMW Talent Cup and kick-started the racing career of many successful drivers like Sebastian Vettel, Nico Rosberg and Nico Hülkenberg. The focus is on GT and touring car drivers who already have some racing experience. Outings in the BMW M235i Racing are an integral part of the comprehensive training programme. As well as race starts and test drives, intensive theory courses dealing with fitness and PR are planned, as are mental and simulator training. The potential candidates for this year’s class were put to the test in a shootout in the BMW M235i Racing in Dijon on 10th/11th March. A decision as to which of the young drivers showed the most potential is made by a jury of experts, headed by BMW Motorsport Director Jens Marquardt. BMW works driver Dirk Adorf will act as a mentor for the junior programme. At the end of the year, the most successful BMW Motorsport Junior of the season will be given the opportunity to continue his training for a second year in a higher racing category.

  • Michelin Helps Imsa Deliver Fast, Close Racing at the Glen
    PRESS INFORMATION MICHELIN HELPS IMSA DELIVER FAST, CLOSE RACING AT THE GLEN Mazda, Porsche, Acura Prevail in “Cool” Watkins Glen Watkins Glen, N.Y., June 30, 2019 --- Michelin marked the midpoint of its first season as the Official Tire of IMSA as it has since the outset, by working closely with manufacturers, teams and drivers to help them deliver incredibly close competition and another batch of new records. The combined margin of victory in the three premier IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship classes was just 1.48 seconds after six hours of racing at the historic 3.4-mile Watkins Glen International circuit. While last year Michelin recorded track temperatures in excess of 140 degrees Fahrenheit, the highest of the season, this year cooler temperatures prevailed. A weekend of extremes in temperatures, which reached 117 on Friday eventually ceded to a cool race day at the smooth, fast, high energy, high-load circuit where the race day track temperature topped out at 82 degrees. The weekend also saw a popular new overall winner with Mazda Team Joest scoring a long overdue maiden DPi victory. Learning and Growing Into Second Half of 2019 To kick off the second half of the season, Michelin brought its semi-confidential IMSA Hard compound tire for its debut in DPi/LMP2, the top two classes of the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship. Meanwhile the WeatherTech GT Daytona and IMSA MICHELIN Pilot Challenge GS class cars raced with the MICHELIN® Pilot® Sport GT S9M hard compound commercial slicks for the first time in 2019. The hard compound tire is tuned specifically for circuits where drivers traditionally encounter the highest loads and track temperatures of the season.
