Two venues are scheduled to circuits which were not visited 2015, Jarama to start the season and Imola to finish it. There are of Race the classics among which the three top of the bill events: the Le Mans Classic, the Tour Auto Optic 2ooo, celebrating its silver jubilee in 2016 and the third Chantilly Arts & Elegance Richard Mille concours. WHAT’S NEW Jarama-Classic (1-3 April) - the Spanish track, which has undergone major renovation works, always offers a winding layout, very attractive for the drivers; while neighboring Madrid is a first class stop off. Not to be forgotten, a mild and friendly weather: the ideal destination for a calendar starting on the three first days of April. Imola-Classic (21-23 October) – a come back to the Lombardian circuit, already visited in 2012 and 2013, which is very popular with the drivers and… the Organisers. The meeting by late October on this track, also appreciated by the competitors will close the season by Peter Auto with an Italian note which always pleases everybody… THE FLAGSHIPS The Tour Auto Optic 2ooo (18-24 April) - the rally will celebrate its silver jubilee through its iconic models such as the 250GT Ferrari, MKII Jaguar, as well as the prototypes which left the racetracks at the time: Ligier JS2... A 'must'! Le Mans Classic (8-10 July) - the appointment that no driver would miss ever and for which they need to apply as soon as they can … Chantilly Arts & Elegance Richard Mille (3-4 September) - the concours will establish, on the occasion of its third edition, its annual appointment for an elegant Sunday in the countryside centered around its two concours and the Art de Vivre à la Française. A charm offensive! THE UNMISSABLE CLASSICS Peter Auto has given appointments to their drivers on the basis of gathering its grids –Classic Endurance Racing 1 & 2, Heritage Touring Cup, Sixties' Endurance, Trofeo Nastro Rosso and from 2016 on, the Group C- on three famous racetracks. Spa-Classic (13-15 May) - the event is now THE Belgian historic meeting. Grand Prix de l'Age d'Or (3-5 June) - Dijon offers a layout which is as much appreciated as the Burgundy region's Art de Vivre values The Dix Mille Tours (1-2 October) - the usual end-of-the-season by Peter Auto event, in another very successful French region and furthermore with first class infrastructures, will this year be the next to one before Imola. A one off for the Group C with a round at Silverstone Classic due on the last week end of July. 3 PETER AUTO 2016 CALENDAR www.peterauto.peter.fr 4 KICK-OFF IN SPAIN! For a change, Peter Auto’s season will kick off in Spain on the Jarama circuit inaugurated in July 1967. It was a red-letter day in the history of Spanish motor sport which had been waiting in vain for the construction of a permanent track: up till then the majority of car races had taken place on non- permanent city circuits. Fans had to wait until 1964 for the Spanish Automobile Club (RACE) to be in a position to build a circuit fit to host an F1 grand prix. After choosing a place in scrubland to the north of Madrid (in San Sebastian), the RACE entrusted Dutch architect John Hugenholtz, who had already designed the Zandvoort, Suzuka and Zolder tracks, with the project. The brand-new Jarama circuit opened its doors in July 1967 and hosted the Spanish Grand Prix the following year. Between 1968 and 1981 nine Spanish Grands Prix were held at Jarama with victories going to famous drivers like Graham Hill, Jackie Stewart, Emerson Fittipaldi, Niki Lauda, James Hunt, Mario Andretti, Patrick Depailler and Gilles Villeneuve. In the early 90s the circuit was extended and its length increased from 3.4 to 3.8 km. But with the exception of the pits straight it still consisted mainly of tight corners making overtaking very tricky. It has recently been revamped, and after the winter break this old-style circuit will give the season a great start and get the adrenalin flowing again among the drivers in the six Peter Auto grids, which now include Group C. The event should enjoy mild temperatures and the warm sun of the Iberian spring.

The Peter Auto grids, Classic Endurance Racing 1 & 2, Sixties’ Endurance, Trofeo Nastro Rosso, Group C Racing and Heritage Touring cars highlight the GT, Sports, Prototype and Touring cars that have marked the history of endurance racing. Thanks to the name that Peter Auto has built up since its creation and the expertise of its teams, the company has acquired a reputation of being able to assemble the richest and biggest grids of historic cars for which it organises races at its European events. As proof of the quality of these grids, in 2015 Classic Endurance Racing was awarded the title of the Racing Series of the Year at the International Historic Motoring Awards. 7 In 2016, C.E.R will celebrate its thirteenth season. A great achievement throughout Europe where the drivers and their cars revived the great days of endurance creating one of the most important historic events. In addition, at the end of 2015 it was awarded the Race Series of the Year Prize at the International Historic Motoring Awards. Since 2004 Classic Endurance Racing has been THE retrospective of endurance races held between 1966 and 1979, an era when this branch of the sport topped the bill in world motor racing. It was the glorious years of the Ford GT40s, Porsches 910 and 917, Ferraris 512S and M, BMWs, etc. driven by the likes of Jacky Ickx, Henri Pescarolo, Gérard Larrousse, whose playing fields were not limited to the legendary Le Mans 24 Hours: they also raced on the greatest European circuits in the context of the Sports Car World Championship.

  • Armiku I Klimës Në Modë Nga Gjergj Nika Qershor 2020
    Armiku i klimës në modë Nga Gjergj Nika Qershor 2020 Nuk e di sa është i vërtetë lajmi i mediave online, që Australia do të vrasë 10.000 deve me arsyen se qenkan një rrezik për mjedisin, sepse pijnë shumë ujë. Po e marrim si të vërtetë. Përpara se të vrasin këto kafshë të gjora nën pretekstin për të zgjidhur problemet klimatike, le të ndalojnë ose të pakësojnë garat motorrike si Formula 1, të cilat në një garë të një dite të vetme, emetojnë më shumë gaz karbonik sesa emetojnë devetë gjatë gjithë vitit. Le të analizojmë problemet e shumta për mjedisin dhe klimën që sjellin garat motorrike, duke marrë si shembull Formula 1, që është më ndotësi nga garat motorrike dhe të shohim se sa e dëmton natyrën. Një nga problemet e shumta për mjedisin dhe klimën, që vjen si pasojë e garave të Formula 1 është çlirimi i dioksidit të karbonit nga djegia e karburantit për një garë, e cila nuk sjell asnjë të mirë materiale për njerëzit. Kjo djegie karburanti nuk është e domosdoshme si ajo e traktorit, që punon tokën për ta mbjellur, apo e autobusit, që transporton pasagjerë nevojtarë nga një vend në një tjetër. Sipas Uikipedias një makinë e zakonshme e garës Formula 1 djeg 75 litra karburant për 100 km të përshkuara. Pra 0.75 litra karburant të djegur, lëshojnë rreth 1737 gram dioksid karboni për një kilometër, sasi kjo që është pothuajse nëntë herë më shumë se sasia e dioksidit të karbonit që lëshojnë makinat normale. 1 Dhe gjatë një sezoni garash, ku përdoren afërsisht 100,000 litra karburant, i takon të prodhohet 231 ton dioksid karboni për çdo makinë.

  • Toyota Motor Mantuvo Su Título Como La Marca De Autos Más Valiosa Del 2015, Según Un Estudio De “Brandz Top 100 Most Valuable Global Brands”
    Toyota Motor mantuvo su título como la marca de autos más valiosa del 2015, según un estudio de “BrandZ Top 100 Most Valuable Global Brands”. Toyota ha sido número uno en ocho de los 10 años, siendo BMW el número dos y Mercedes Benz tercera, de acuerdo con el estudio publicado por el investigador de mercado Millward Brown. “Cuando nos fijamos en la confianza de la marca Toyota genera a partir de los propietarios de automóviles, la experiencia del cliente, el valor y la calidad que los clientes, la marca Japonesa está por arriba de las demás”, dijo Brown. La división de lujo de Toyota, Lexus, superó a Hyundai para clasificar No. 10 gracias a su asociación con el lujo y la fiabilidad. Mientras que Lexus está orientada hacia los Estados Unidos, la marca sobrelleva sus modelos con una calidad absoluta, completa diferenciación, liderazgo y está muy bien dirigida a un público que le es sumamente fiel. Honda que también entro en el top 10 vio una caída de su valor por los efectos sufridos con los problemas de los Airbags Takata. Su valor de marca cayó un 5 por ciento, a $ 13,3 mil millones. Audi fue el de más rápido crecimiento dentro de las marca de autos, superando a su filial Volkswagen para subir al puesto número 7. El valor de la marca Audi aumentó 43 por ciento a $ 10.1 mil millones en comparación con 2014, según el estudio. El segundo clasificado en valor, BMW, aumentó dos por ciento, a $ 26,4 mil millones.
