JR Motorsport (A5) et Racingdivas (A3T) voulaient eux confirmer leurs succès de 2013.

Ambiance … à vos marques – BMW se contentera du top six et Mercedes de la seconde place – 62 petits tours pour la Vantage Craft AMR. LA COURSE : Cette neuvième édition aura certainement été une des plus animées depuis que les 24 Heures de Dubai existent. Avec vingt -sept changements de leaders pour neuf voitures différentes. Mercedes, Chevrolet, Porsche, BMW et Ferrari vont se retrouver en tête à tour de rôle. Si la lutte en début de course opposera la SLS AMG Black Falcon # 1 à la Corvette C6.R V8 Racing, la lutte sera sévère du 37 ème au 93 ème tour avec pas moins de douze changements de leader ou les Porsche 997 GT3-R Fach Auto Tech # 4 et Stadler Motorsport # 20, la Porsche 997 Cup Förch Racing # 42, les SLS AMG All-Inkl.com # 38 et Black Falcon # 1, la Z4 ZS Team Schubert # 76 et la 458 Italia Spirit of Race # 5 vont effectuer un chassé-croisé des plus incertains. La SLS AMG Black Falcon # 1 se placera ensuite en tête de la course du 94 ème au 228 ème tour avant un nouveau ème chassé-croisé qui durera jusqu’au 315 tour entre la 997 GT3-R Fach Auto Tech # 4, la Z4 SX Team Schubert # 76 et la 458 Italia RAM Racing # 30. Le reste de la course ne connaitra alors plus que deux leaders, les Porsche 997 GT3-R du Fach Auto Tech # 4 et celle du Stadler Motorsport # 20. Cette dernière finira par prendre le pouvoir au 432 ème tour et ne sera plus rejointe. Le Stadler Motorsport n’aura connu aucun problème et aura su établir une stratégie de course efficace qui permet à Mark et Rolf Ineichen, Marcel Matter, Adrian Amstuzt et Christian Engelhart de s’adjuger cette neuvième édition au nez et à la barbe de teams plus huppés. Du côté des autres catégories, le Dragon Racing (A6-Am), le Förch Racing by Lukas Motorsports (997), JR Motorsport (A5), Speedworks Mortorsport (SP3), le Nissan GT Academy Team RJN (SP2), AD Racing K-Rejser (A2), le Racingdivas Team Schubert (A3T) et le Recy Racing Team (D1) sortent vainqueurs de cette neuvième édition.

    Press Release July 9, 2011 No. M 85/11 American Le Mans Series, round 3 in Lime Rock, USA First podium result of the season for the title defenders Stuttgart. In the American Le Mans Series, the title defenders clinched their first podium result of the season at their third attempt. With the Porsche 911 GT3 RSR fielded by Flying Lizard Motorsports, Porsche factory pilots Joerg Bergmeister (Ger- many) and Patrick Long (USA) finished second in the GT class at the Northeast Grand Prix in Lime Rock to improve their championship position. The race on the short 2.478 kilometre circuit in the US state of Connecticut was thrill- ing from start to finish. And it began well for Porsche: Patrick Long snatched second place right at the start and defended his position to the first pit stop and driver change. His teammate Joerg Bergmeister, who tops the winners’ list with five victo- ries from the last five years on this circuit, fell back just once to third place after an- other pit stop behind his works driver colleague Wolf Henzler, but was quickly able to regain his position. Bergmeister went on to deliver a spirited fight for the lead, at times only two seconds adrift of the front-runner. But with three laps to go, his result looked in jeopardy when tyre damage forced him into the pits. As always, the Flying Lizard crew worked swiftly on his number 45 Porsche so that he was able to defend his second place. At the flag only 20.387 seconds separated Bergmeister and Long from their first win of the season.

    In Touch the Official Magazine of Dunlop Motorsport [ ] Le Mans Race Edition

    IN TOUCH THE OFFICIAL MAGAZINE OF DUNLOP MOTORSPORT [ www.injection.tv ] LE MANS RACE EDITION Dunlop came away from the Le Mans 24 hours delighted with the performance of its dry and light wet tyres after a difficult race in which the changing condi- tions contributed to the overall result. “We were pretty competitive in all conditions other than full wet conditions,” says Dunlop’s chief tyre technician Matthew Simpson of the LMP2 tyres. “On the slick tyres and the light wet tyres, we had a performance advantage, but in full wet conditions we struggled to get temperature into our compounds. The Essex car had engine trouble so we were never going to do better than we did, but we have to look at the tyre perform- ance in wet conditions and make it better. “The Virgo Ferrari team were very strong and our development construction at the rear allowed us to double stint safely. There was no sign of difficulty in doing so, and there was zero deterioration from the first lap to the last in a double stint, according to the drivers. Le Mans podiums for Essex Perhaps we could have triple stinted, but we didn’t test that before the race and during the race was not the time to try. Porsche and Farnbacher Ferrari “The Creation team had four punctures and three of them were caused by debris. There was not enough left of the tyre to establish the cause of the fourth.” The 2008 edition of the Le Mans 24 hours produced was difficult to drive because sometimes the power was everything from a record breaking qualifying and race there, other times it wasn’t and we couldn’t know what to John Nielsen, Casper Elgaard and Sascha Maassen pace, a record crowd of 258,500 turning out in eager expect.

Race officials, citing hazardous conditions due to torrential rains that fell at Road Atlanta just past the four-hour mark, called the race at eight hours, 44 minutes running. Peugeot’s two diesel-powered factory prototype coupes finished 1-2 with the pole-sitting 908 HDi of Pedro Lamy and Nic Minassian in second. The first of Audi Sport Team Joest’s Audi R15 TDIs placed third, the car driven by Allan McNish and Dindo Capello. McNish and Capello dominated the race before the rains fell. The two Peugeots got past McNish under yellow when the Scot looped the Audi under wet conditions. Dyson Racing took its first Petit Le Mans victory with a victory in LMP2 for Marino Franchitti, Butch Leitzinger and Ben Devlin. Their Mazda-powered Lola B09/86 coupe had problems with gear selection early, but the Acura ARX-01b of Lowe’s Fernandez Racing’s Adrian Fernandez and Luis Diaz experienced steering issues throughout.
