  • Porsche 919 Hybrid English.Indd
    Porsche 919 Hybrid Return to top-level sport Porsche is making its comeback to the top-level motorsport arena: with the new 919 Hybrid the sports car brand is sending a platform for pioneering technology to the top category of the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) with the undisputed seasonal highlight of the 24-hour Le Mans race. Porsche's reputation precedes it at this venue: with 16 overall victories under its belt, the brand holds the record for this, the most famous endurance race in the world. In 2014 Porsche is returning to the top-level class endurance race after a 16-year absence - namely Le Mans Prototypes (LMP1). Matthias Müller, Chairman of the Executive Board of Porsche AG explains: "The new and revolutionary efficiency regulations for this class were what prompted us to take this step. In 2014 it is not going to be the fastest contender who is going to win the sports car world championship and Le Mans, but the car that gets furthest with the defined amount of energy. And it is precisely this challenge that the automotive industry has to face. The 919 Hybrid is like a high speed research laboratory and the most complex racing car Porsche has ever built." The new WEC regulations for the LMP1 racing car gives engineers an unusual amount of leeway and demands pioneering technology, such as hybridisation, downsizing engines and consistent lightweight construction. This is all particularly relevant for the development of future generations of factory-spec sports cars. Maximum sporting performance and highest efficiency are at the heart of "Porsche Intelligent Performance".

    Rennen! Races! Vitesse! Racing Circuits Netherlands Belgium Germany Austria Luxembourg Switzerland Rob Semmeling Rennen! Races! Vitesse! Page 2 Contents Foreword 3 Netherlands 5 Belgium 44 Germany 78 Austria 133 Luxembourg & Switzerland 148 Copyright © Rob Semmeling 2009-2016 / all rights reserved www.wegcircuits.nl Rennen! Races! Vitesse! Page 3 Foreword Motorsport essentially consists of three ingredients. First, you need a motor vehicle - which can be anything from a Formula 1 car to a lawn mower, or from a MotoGP motorcycle to a pocket bike. Second, you need a driver or rider to operate the vehicle, and finally, a place to go racing - a circuit. To most people this last ingredient is probably the least interesting. The number of books about famous racing drivers and cars, or great riders and their motorcycles, is far larger than the number of books about racing circuits. However, to me circuits are the most interesting aspect of motorsport, for two main reasons. First is their great diversity: in terms of shape, layout, length, difficulty, fame and many other factors, every circuit is different, and each has its own story to tell. Second, it is fascinating to see just how many circuits there are. Once you start looking, you can find them just about any- where. Finding lost circuits or discovering long-forgotten tracks is one of the most fun aspects of researching racing circuits. When looking for information about racing circuits online, I often found it frustrating that the available sources were not complete, and that they often lacked detail and accuracy. This is one of the reasons why I started my website www.wegcircuits.nl and why I made Rennen! Races! Vitesse! - a downloadable pdf-file that lists racing circuits of past and present in four European countries: the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and Austria.

  • Quotes After the Race at the Eurospeedway
    Communications Motorsport 7 Jürgen Pippig Telephone: +49 (0)841 89 34200 E-mail: [email protected] www.audi-motorsport.info Quotes after the race at the EuroSpeedway Ingolstadt/Klettwitz, Juni 6, 2010 – A collision on the starting lap cost Audi valuable points in the fight for the DTM title at the EuroSpeedway Lausitz. Quotes after the race. Dr. Wolfgang Ullrich (Head of Audi Motorsport) “As early as after qualifying we saw that we’d be having a difficult time. But what happened in turn three was a nightmare. Something like this mustn’t happen on the first lap, particularly not among brand colleagues. Now all we can do is look ahead and make sure that something like this never happens again. We’ll tackle this right away. Mike Rockenfeller’s performance was a positive aspect. As the best Audi driver, he managed to clinch fourth place and posted the fastest race lap.” Mike Rockenfeller (S line Audi A4 DTM), 4th place “I had a good start and got through well. I was running in fourth place and Gary (Paffett) was behind me. Then the safety car period came. At the end of it, Jamie was extremely slow in the penultimate turn. A huge gap to the two front runners opened up, we almost couldn’t see them any more. That was frustrating of course. On the first two sets of tires I had to fight a lot because Gary was on my heels and putting on a lot of pressure. On the third set of tires I was running really well and drove away from Gary.

  • Audi Wants to Strike Back in the Lausitz
    Ingolstadt, 22 April 2005 Motorsport Audi wants to strike back in the Lausitz • DTM stars at the EuroSpeedway • Audi return as last year’s winners to East Germany • Shortened circuit layout guarantees even more excitement A television audience of 2.22 million watched the live ARD broadcast of the DTM AUDI AG Kommunikation season opener at Hockenheim, 113,000 fans formed an impressive backdrop at the 85045 Ingolstadt www.audi.com circuit. Only two weeks later on Sunday May 1, Europe’s most popular touring car series stars at Europe’s leading state-of-the-art circuit, the EuroSpeedway Lausitz, situated 130 kilometres south of Berlin. The fans can look forward to a particularly exciting race because defending champions Audi want to strike back following the somewhat unlucky course of events at the season opener. The Audi squad worked hard after the race at Hockenheim to rebuild Tom Kristensen’s car, which was badly damaged in a start collision. Also, the data recorded during the season opener was analysed. At Hockenheim, practice results and Mattias Ekström´s pole position demonstrated that the new Audi A4 DTM was quick out of the box. The job is now to find the perfect set-up for the EuroSpeedway – especially for the race. It should also be taken into account that the circuit layout has changed: The 3.410 kilometre DTM version will be used for the first time. The circuit is more than one kilometre shorter than last year, when Mattias Ekström won. The spectators benefit from the shortened track layout: Instead of the previous 37- lap distance the race is now held over 42 laps.
