​Hard Helg I Hell for Andreas Bakkerud 23-08-2015 20:57 CEST Hard helg i Hell for Andreas Bakkerud Rallycross in Hell ble en eventyrlig suksess for arrangøren med over 19000 tilskuere over tre solfylte og flotte dager på Lånkebanen i Stjørdal. Publikum fikk oppleve tøffe fighter og heftig kjøring fra tidenes største startfelt med Supercars. For Andreas Bakkerud ble det derimot en hard helg, og lite mesterskapspoeng med hjem. – Akkurat det kan jeg skylde meg selv for, men arrangementet denne helgen har vært utrolig bra, forteller Bakkerud. Bakkerud havnet bakpå allerede før hjulene hadde rullet i gang i på Lørdagen. - Det ble en dobbel joker etter at bilen beveget seg på startplata i første omgang. Dermed ble jeg kjempende bakfra hele helgen. Vi hadde god fart på rundetidene, men klarte aldri å få det helt til totalt i heatene, forteller Bakkerud som endte som nummer 8 etter fire omganger. I semifinalen ble det virkelig action, og Andreas kom ut side om side med Petter Solberg. Det endte med en episode det ble snakket mye om i sosiale medier i ettertid: – Jeg gjorde samme manøver mot Tommy Rustad i fjerde omgang, men da uten kontakt mellom bilene. Jeg krysset linje bak Petter og prøver å gå for den luken som er der, men det blir kontakt, jeg treffer curbsen og slår i stykker mitt høyre framhjul. I ettertid er det enkelt å si at jeg burde bremset – men slik er rallycross det er tight og ting skjer raskt, forteller Bakkerud og legger til: - Det er jeg som ødelegger bilen min der ikke Petter. Bakkerud fortsatte å kjempe flere runder med bare tre hjul, men da felgen løsnet, og bremsene forsvant var det bare å parkere. - Kampen i rallycross er knalltøff nå – og jeg pushet for å komme meg til en finale i best mulig posisjon. Jeg har hatt 7 finaler på rad i år – men ingen seirer da jeg har måtte kjempe bakfra. Nå er det to uker til neste VM-runde, som går i Franske Loheac, og Bakkerud ser fortsatt lyst på avslutningen av sesongen: - Jeg kan nok ikke lengre utfordre Petter om VM-tittelen denne sesongen, men det er mye annet spennende å fighte for og legger til: - Takk til alle som kom og så på i helgen – det motiverer virkelig å se at interessen for rallycross øker. Arrangøren her på Lånkebanen har gjort en fantastisk innsats, og jeg håper publikum ble rik på opplevelser selv om jeg ble fattig på poeng og plasseringer.

  • Audi Driver Ekström on Podium After Pouring Rain
    Audi MediaInfo Motorsport Communications Virginia Brusch Phone: +49 841 89-41753 E-mail: [email protected] www.audi -mediacenter.com/en Audi driver Ekström on podium after pouring rain • FIA World Rallycross Champion Mattias Ekström finishes third in Lohéac • Audi DTM driver Nico Müller celebrates impressive rallycross debut Lohéac/Neuburg, September 3, 2017 – Mattias Ekström is back on the road to success in the FIA World Rallycross Championship. At the ninth round in Lohéac, the reigning World Champion finished third – the first podium result since his victory in Hockenheim last May. In front of 75,000 spectators, the Swede was only beaten in the final by his countryman Johan Kristoffersson and the French local matador Sébastien Loeb. In the overall standings, Ekström is third behind Kristoffersson and his team mate Petter Solberg – also like EKS in the team classification. Following heavy rain, the final race in Brittany became a mud festival featuring many overtaking moves. “Saturday sun and Sunday rather more swimming and sliding, a varied weekend,” confirmed Ekström. “I’m actually quite satisfied with my third place, but I’m a little annoyed because we weren’t so far from the front. In the dry and in the rain we were just missing a tiny bit, but we can certainly build on the performance.” In Lohéac, Ekström’s team mates Reinis Nitišs and Toomas Heikkinen once again made the semi- final races for the twelve fastest drivers, but drew the short straw at this stage. “After contact with Andreas Bakkerud my wipers stopped working, from there on I was running blind,” summarized Nitišs and added: “I’m disappointed with the result because it doesn’t show our real performance.” Heikkinen missed the final after a collision with Ken Block.

  • PSRX Volkswagen Sweden Vill Lämna Lydden I Topp
    PSRX Volkswagen Sweden vill lämna Lydden i topp Lydden Hill är en speciell plats. Det var här rallycrossen föddes för 50 år sedan och 46 år senare inledde Petter Solberg sin rallycross-karriär här. Och kommande weekend säger FIA World Rallycross Championship adjö till Devil´s Elbow och Canterbury Straight. Från och med nästa år kommer Silverstone att ersätta Lydden Hill som Storbritanniens hemmabana för World RX. Segaren i förra omgången av World RX i Belgien, Johan Kristoffersson, siktar nu på ett hat-trick, en tredje seger på tre helger. Han vann även förra helgens omgång av Scandinavian Touring Car i Alastaro i Finland. - Det känns bra nu, säger Johan. De senaste två helgerna har det gått väldigt bra för mig och jag vill ta med mig den känslan till Lydden. - PSRX Volkswagen Sweden visade stor jämnhet och bra fart i Belgien och vi kommer att behöva mer av det när vi kommer till Storbritannien. Petter Solberg vann för två år sedan och förtjänade troligen att vinna efter att ha varit snabbast hela tiden förra året, så vi vet vad som krävs för att vinna på den här banan. - Det kommer det att bli en känslosam weekend på Lydden. Alla som älskar vår sport känner till platsen och att tävla där för sista gången kommer att kännas underligt. Men ingenting förändras för oss som team, vi går ut för att göra vårt bästa och ta så många poäng som möjligt - för att komma ikapp Mattias Ekström (ledare i förarmästerskapet i World RX) och för att behålla ledningen i teammästerskapet för PSRX Volkswagen Sweden.

  • Kristoffersson VM-Tvåa Efter Stark Volkswageninsats På Hockenheim
    Kristoffersson VM-tvåa efter stark Volkswageninsats på Hockenheim Volkswagen visade styrkan med alla fem bilar i semifinal när Hockenheim stod som värd för årets andra deltävling i rallycross- VM. Där blev det emellertid stopp för alla utom Toomas ”Topi” Heikkinen. Han avancerade till final där han blev fyra. Johan Kristoffersson, premiärvinnare i Portugal, samlade många värdefulla poäng i Tyskland och är efter de inledande deltävlingarna tvåa bakom ledande Petter Solberg i förar-VM. Den fyra dagar långa tävlingsperioden på Hockenheim, där rallycross-VM ingick som ett uppskattat inslag i DTM-premiären, bjöd på omväxlande resultat för den kvintett förare de svenska VW-teamen mönstrade på Volkswagens hemmaplan. Inte minst gällde det Johan Kristoffersson, Volkswagen Team Sweden, som efter segern i den första kvalomgången körde dubbelpunktering i den andra och där fick nöja sig med 21:a tid. Han reparerade skadan med en andraplats i den tredje omgången, men i den fjärde blev det ”bara” nionde tid sedan fransmannen Davy Jeanney kört på honom på det sista varvet. – Det var en himla smäll, säger Johan, som hade tur att skadorna på hans bil inte äventyrade hans fortsatta medverkan i tävlingen. I sin semifinal startade Kristoffersson från första led, bredvid Reinis Nitiss, som hade pole position. – Men det var vått där jag stod och jag fick därför inte till någon bra start, berättar Johan, som efter att ha fightats om andraplatsen med Robin Larsson i de inledande kurvorna fick släppa Audi-föraren före sig. Kristoffersson återtog emellertid andraplatsen bakom Nitiss när Larsson körde alternativspåret. Den positionen fick emellertid inte VW-föraren behålla speciellt länge.

  • Audi and EKS Rallycross Team: Season’S Midpoint in the Far North
    Audi MediaInfo Communications Motorsport VirginiaG Brusch Tel: +49 841 89-41753 E-mail: [email protected] www.audi -mediacenter.com/en Audi and EKS rallycross team: season’s midpoint in the far north • FIA World Rallycross Championship visits Hell, Norway • Challenging roller coaster track evokes emotions • Mattias Ekström: “Goose bumps all over my body” Neuburg, June 6, 2017 – Hell, Norway, will be hosting round six of the FIA World Rallycross Championship next weekend. On the roller coaster track near Trondheim, 22 campaigners are going to battle for victory in the Supercar class from June 9 to 11. World RX Champion Mattias Ekström ranks in second place of the drivers’ standings after five of twelve rounds. EKS is in position three of the teams’ classification. Round six not only marks the season’s midpoint for EKS. Hell plays an important part in the team’s history as well. In Norway, on June 14, 2014, the rallycross adventure began for Mattias Ekström and his squad. “That was a very, very stressful time,” Ekström says, looking back. “Before the first race weekend, the whole team put in one night shift after the other.” A helicopter had to deliver the engine for the second Audi S1 EKS RX quattro due to the lengthy preparations. Still, the strenuous efforts were worth it for Ekström: “At the start of race one, I had goose bumps all over my body.” The reigning World RX Champion had to wait until 2016 to claim his first sporting success at Hell. Last year, Ekström finished on podium, in third place, on the challenging roller coaster track.
