They have worked very hard during the winter and the Imola results have been the reward for their and our joint efforts.

    Motorsport Information International Volkswagen Motorsport Newsletter 35/2018 § Formula 3: Daniel Ticktum defends title – Volkswagen bows out with one-two-three win § Volkswagen most successful engine manufacturer in Macau with eleven Formula 3 victories § WTCR: Robert Huff on the podium twice in the Golf GTI TCR FIA Formula 3 World Cup Commanding start-finish-victory: Daniel Ticktum wins turbulent Macau Grand Prix Daniel Ticktum (GB) is the triumphant victor of the FIA Formula 3 World Cup in Macau. The 19-year-old Brit of Team Motopark, who triumphed in the gambler’s paradise in the Far East last year, dominated throughout the race weekend and celebrated a commanding win in both races of the FIA Formula 3 World Cup. Ticktum, who set the fastest lap time in the practice session and won the qualifying race on Saturday, started the main race on Sunday from pole position and refused to surrender the lead right down to the finish line. Swedish team-mates Joel Eriksson und Sacha Fenestraz (F, Carlin) made it two other Formula 3 drivers “powered by Volkswagen” who rounded off the podium. The main race – as is so often the case in Macau – was turbulent: On the very first lap there was a collision involving four cars in the tricky Lisboa bend, which caused the safety car to be deployed. Immediately after the restart, another serious accident resulted in a lengthy interruption. After an hour was spent repairing the track barriers, the race continued. Ticktum mastered the restart perfectly and refused to give up the lead down to the chequered flag.

  • Polestar Cyan Racing Marque Deja Des Points Des Le Demarrage Du Wtcc
    Communiqués Date de publication Apr 04, 2016 | ID: 189524 POLESTAR CYAN RACING MARQUE DEJA DES POINTS DES LE DEMARRAGE DU WTCC Thed Björk et Fredrik Ekblom ont marqué des points dès l’entrée en lice des nouvelles Volvo S60 de l’écurie Polestar Cyan Racing dans le Championnat du Monde FIA des Voitures de Tourisme (WTCC). En passant dans la première course de la dernière position sur la grille de départ à la septième sur la ligne d’arrivée, soit une remontée de neuf places, Thed Björk a assuré le plus beau spectacle du week­end. « C’est un superbe week­end qui nous confirme que nous sommes sur la bonne voie. Nous avons rencontré quelques problèmes mais c’était à prévoir, et les mécaniciens n’ont pas ménagé leurs efforts. Vivement la prochaine manche en Slovaquie », a déclaré Björk. Son coéquipier Fredrik Ekblom a lui aussi inscrit des points lors de la seconde course, en accrochant la dixième place après une lutte aux coudes à coudes avec, entre autres, l’ex­champion du monde Rob Huff. « Nous avons fait une bonne première course, je suis heureux de quitter le Paul Ricard avec des points en poche. La voiture est rapide et j’ai hâte de me plonger dans la masse de données collectées afin d’affiner notre stratégie pour la suite de la saison », a renchéri Ekblom. Les ennuis techniques ont été de la partie ce week­end, avec une suspension arrière cassée pour Ekblom dans la première course suite à un incident, et un problème électrique pour Björk dans la seconde.
