PREVIEW TALKING TURKEY Panasonic Toyota Racing Returns To 20 August 2007 PANASONIC TOYOTA RACING TURKISH GRAND PRIX - PREVIEW TALKING TURKEY Panasonic Toyota Racing returns to action in the Turkish Grand Prix at Istanbul Park after the traditional Formula 1 summer break. Even though there has been an extended gap between races, the team has been working as hard as ever since the last race to prepare for this weekend. A floor update and a new front wing will be introduced on the TF107s for this race. Toyota arrives in Turkey with optimism after Ralf Schumacher’s strong 6th place at the Hungarian Grand Prix last time out. The 14-turn, 5.338km Istanbul Park is the newest race track on the calendar and is regarded as one of the most challenging, with significant elevation changes and several corners inspired by the sport’s greatest tracks. Hot weather is again expected, with temperatures of over 30°C predicted, so heat and the low grip surface of the track mean Bridgestone will bring the medium and hard compounds of their Potenza tyre this weekend. Toyota has scored points in both previous visits to Turkey and will ag ain fight to add to its tally in Sunday’s 58-lap race. Ralf Schumacher (Car 11): "Hungary was a very strong weekend for me and the team, with my best qualifying and race results of the season. We looked really competitive and had a good result so I am now looking forward to building on that performance in Turkey. The Istanbul Park is quite unusual for a modern circuit because it features a lot of elevation changes and a varied mix of corners. It’s an exciting track to drive. We have shown over the last few races that we have become more competitive and we are moving in the right direction. Our car seems to be reasonably competitive on different kinds of circuits so we are hopeful again for this weekend. It was important for the team to score points in Hungary and now we will aim to do that again in Turkey. I enjoyed the summer break but now I am ready to get back to racing." Jarno Trulli (Car 12): "I am looking forward to the Turkish Grand Prix after a relaxing break with my family. In the end it was a disappointing weekend for me in Hungary because we showed a lot of potential in practice and early in qualifying, especially when I was 3rd in Q2, but we did not get the result we hoped for. We need to work hard to improve. The Istanbul track is obviously relatively new and it’s most unique feature is Turn 8, which is a tough corner. It is a long left-hander made up of three corners which makes it a quick and very challenging part of the track. I am looking forward to the weekend and I hope we can get a decent result because we have shown if everything goes well, our car is capable of scoring points. I am aiming to keep up my good record of qualifying in the top 10 and then hopefully I can score points again." Pascal Vasselon – Senior General Manager Chassis: "We are looking forward to the Turkish Grand Prix and we are optimistic of scoring points again after Ralf’s 6th place in Hungary. In terms of the Istanbul Park circuit, it could be described as a standard new Formula 1 track if it were not for Turn 8. This is a really outstanding corner, which is very demanding physically for the drivers and also for the tyres. For this reason, Bridgestone will bring the harder tyres to Turkey. Since Magny-Cours we have made a step in terms of overall performance, which you have seen from our qualifying results, and it was positive to see that translate into a race result. After the high downforce demands of Hungary, we will return to a medium downforce window which seemed to suit our car at Magny-Cours, Silverstone and the Nürburgring, so we will be looking to continue the qualifying form we have shown recently and build on Ralf’s race result in Hungary. We were pleased to be fighting with t he BMWs in Hungary so now we expect to again see our drivers challenge for the top six and hopefully get both cars in the points."

  • 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.

  • Video 14 – Turkey Preview
    Video 14 – Turkey Preview [Cut to Christine. ] Chris: Welcome to Sidepodcast TV , today we are previewing the Turkish Grand Prix. [Intro shots of Turkey. Cut to Christine. ] Chris: It’s not long since Toro Rosso announced their split with driver Scott Speed in favour of German Sebastian Vettel. Now the team have announced their second Sebastian signing, this time in the form of Bourdais, double Champ Car champion. He will replace Tonio Liuzzi for the 2008 season, in a move that Liuzzi describes as unsurprising. Relationships within the team have been strained for a while, so the decision to shake thing s up a bit for 2008 can only be a good thing. I wonder if McLaren will have to do something similar. [Cut to shots of Bourdais. Cut to Christine. ] Chris: Onto Turkey, then, it’s Formula 1’s third outing at the Istanbul Park Circuit, arguably one of the best from designer Herman Tilke. The track features the incredible Turn 8, that just seems to go on and on… but… I don’t want to spoil it for you. Here’s the lap in more detail. [Cut to Allianz animation.] Chris - Voiceover Although it’s still a relatively new track, the Istanbul Park Circuit has already become a firm favourite of both teams and fans alike. It still bears all the hallmarks of the Tilke design but there are some extra special bits thrown in to make it interesting, like the fact that the course runs anti -clockwise. This is the first of only two anti -clockwise tracks this year, which makes it a tough challenge for drivers.

  • Racing Towards a Sustainable Future a Review of the Sustainability Performance of International Racing Circuits
    RACING TOWARDS A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE A REVIEW OF THE SUSTAINABILITY PERFORMANCE OF INTERNATIONAL RACING CIRCUITS Edition June 2021 Racing towards a sustainable future FOREWORD I have been involved with the safety and sustainability of racing tracks for many years now, as a driver, GPDA Chairman and a circuit designer. And while I would argue that big improvements have been made in terms of safety, I also know that there is a long way to go in terms of fully embracing sustainability for racing tracks around the globe. Though circuits have started to change the way in which they approach sustainability, more guidance on what sustainability means and how a circuit can be sustainable are needed. This is why I welcome this new research and the data-driven proposal of the Sustainable Circuits Index™, highlighting indicators from the wider sustainability and sport ecosystem, encouraging best practice and calling attention to the importance of transparent reporting and independent validation. Motorsport has historically been defined by its commitment to innovation and excellence through competition. It’s now critically important for our sport to demonstrate its commitment to sustainability through collaboration. This paper highlights the new metrics for success in this global effort and provides circuits with the tools they need to help win the race for our planet, a race which we can only win together. Alexander Wurz Former F1 Driver, GPDA Chairman, and Consultant on Road Safety and Circuit Design Sustainability is one of the key issues of today’s society as confirmed by the increasing attention of governments, media, academics, and industry.

  • News Release 20.09.15 Petter's Best in Barcelona Norwegian Superstar
    News release 20.09.15 Petter’s best in Barcelona Norwegian superstar Petter Solberg celebrated victory at the maiden World RX of Barcelona at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya today (Sunday). Petter’s no stranger to winning, but it’s been a pretty lean summer in terms of time on the top step for the two-time FIA World Champion. Which is why he was so pleased to land a first victory since World RX of Great Britain at Lydden Hill in May. That and the fact he didn’t let his son Oliver down… Solberg, who is 35 points clear at the top of the World RX table with three rounds remaining this season, said: “We have fought hard for this win the whole weekend. We’ve run a lot of different set-ups on the car – we had to really work at it to catch Peugeot. All the time, the 208 was taking tenths of seconds, but eventually the brilliant PSRX engineers worked it out. “My son won a crosskart race in Sweden today; I got the message by telephone and he was joking and being quite confident and cocky in telling me I couldn’t let the family down – I actually really felt the pressure from that! “In the end, I could call him back and be quite cocky back with him. I liked that! “Everything was going quite well from the start, but in the third heat, I touched the wall on the left side – there was loads of dust in the car and I really couldn’t see so well.
