And what a season it has been so far ! With cars from three different manufacturers winning the three first races, and six drivers tied on the top of the Championship classification, it looks like being a very interesting year. Autodromo Dino e Enzo Ferrari The Aston Martin DBR9, victorious in Silverstone, will not be back for the Imola race, (Imola, Italy) but one of the winning drivers, Pedro Lamy, should be back in his regular cars : the Circuit opened in 1952; rebuilt in 1979 Monza-winning Larbre Competition Ferrari 550 Maranello. The Maserati MC 12 cars Web site : www.autodromoimola.com entered by JMB Racing and Teams classfication leaders Vitaphone will be aiming to repeat their Magny-Cours Maserati domination, while the GLPK Carsport Corvette, Circuit length : 4930 m a frontrunner in all sessions this season so far, will be aiming for its first, and already overdue, podium finish.

In Imola they will face new opposition in the form of Belgian Racing, with the Gillet Vertigo in the capable hands of Bas Leinders and Renaud Kuppens. WHAT THE DRIVERS THINK ... “Imola is a difficult circuit for cars and drivers alike. It is often very hot, and the wind- ing and extremely technical circuit makes it extremely wearing on both the mechanical parts of the car and on the people. It’s a circuit that I like, but you really have to find the right set-up, or the race will be infernal...” Christophe Bouchut, Russian Age Racing “Imola is a nice track; I like it as it is flowing and suits my driving style. We ran well there in 2004 with the Graham Nash Saleen, so I am expecting good things. The sur- rounding area is also very nice... ” Paolo Ruberti, Graham Nash Motorsport “Imola is still one of the best tracks in the world. It is not fast any more, but it is full of big braking moments. You have no time to relax because a corner is already near… It is hard on the car and also on the driver.. “ Gabriele Gardel, Larbre Competition “A strong engine is required to climb up to Aqua Minerale, and strong brakes for Rivazza. The drivers are continuously under pressure and it is difficult to find the right set-up.” Michael Bartels, Vitaphone Racing Team For more information on the teams, Next Race drivers and everything about the Round 4 IMOLA FIA GT Championship, please visit : (REPUBLIC OF SAN MARINO) www.fiagt.com May 27th - 29th 2005 SIX DRIVERS SHARE GT1 CHAMPIONSHIP LEAD !

Piccini / Deletraz 4 ““It is my first time racing at Imola,” Timo Scheider said. “I only know the circuit from TV and from the stories of my race engineer Luigi Urbinelli. I am very happy to race on GT1 TEAMS CHAMPIONSHIP a track which is brand new for me. From what I have seen on TV, the track is typically Vitaphone Racing Team 44 Italian. I think there are a lot of possiblities for overtaking and slipstreaming will work JMB Racing 32 there very well.

Porsche at Le Mans Meet the Heroes of Le Mans • Porsche and the 24 Hours of Le Mans 1 Porsche and the 24 Hours of Le Mans Porsche in the starting line-up for 63 years The 24 Hours of Le Mans is the most famous endurance race in the world. The post-war story of the 24 Heures du Mans begins in the year 1949. And already in 1951 – the pro - duction of the first sports cars in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen commenced in March the previous year – a small delegation from Porsche KG tackles the high-speed circuit 200 kilometres west of Paris in the Sarthe department. Class victory right at the outset for the 356 SL Aluminium Coupé marks the beginning of one of the most illustrious legends in motor racing: Porsche and Le Mans. Race cars from Porsche have contested Le Mans every year since 1951. The reward for this incredible stamina (Porsche is the only marque to have competed for 63 years without a break) is a raft of records, including 16 overall wins and 102 class victories to 2013. The sporting competition and success at the top echelon of racing in one of the world’s most famous arenas is as much a part of Porsche as the number combination 911. After a number of class wins in the early fifties with the 550, the first time on the podium in the overall classification came in 1958 with the 718 RSK clinching third place.

  • Kumpen En Longin Opnieuw Aan Het Feest
    Nascar Whelen Euro Series 2016 - 2. Venray Kumpen en Longin opnieuw aan het feest Ook de tweede meeting van de Nascar Whelen Euro Series 2016 werd een succes voor het PK Carsport-team. Op de Oval van het Nederlandse Venray wisten zowel Anthony Kumpen (Elite 1) als Stienes Longin (Elite 2) te winnen, waardoor ze uiteraard hun leidersplaats in de tussenstand wisten te verstevigen. Anthony Kumpen rekende op zijn oval-ervaring uit de Amerikaanse Nascar om het verschil te maken en dat lukte ook. In de eerste race moest hij dan nog wel - nipt - de Fransman Gabillon voorlaten, in race 2 stond er geen maat op de Hasselaar. Zelfs een late herstart en een wat onstuimige Gianmarco Ercoli - die contact maakte met de #24 PK Carsport Chevrolet SS - konden niet verhinderen dat Kumpen zijn tweede zege van het seizoen liet optekenen. "Opdracht volbracht", aldus Kumpen, die nu in de tussenstand over acht punten voorsprong beschikt. "We zijn naar hier gekomen met de bedoeling om het verschil te maken en dat is gelukt. Alleen over mijn kwalificaties ben ik niet helemaal tevreden. Van op de derde plaats wist ik dat ik moeilijk zou kunnen winnen in de eerste race, maar dan heb ik er voor gezorgd dat ik op het podium finishte en de schade beperkte, én dat ik de pole voor de tweede race wist te veroveren. In die tweede wedstrijd heb ik het dan afgemaakt." In Elite 2 liep het nog beter voor Stienes Longin. De leider in de tussenstand pakte de pole voor de eerste race en domineerde die ook van bij de start.

    Press Release September 5, 2010 No. M 126/10 Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland, round 7 in Brands Hatch Favourites extend lead – pursuers stumble Stuttgart. The three-way fight for the title of the Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland has turned into a duel. With his fourth win of the season in Brands Hatch, local hero Nick Tandy (Konrad Motorsport) shrunk the gap to points’ leader Nicolas Armindo. The Frenchman from Hermes Attempto Racing saw the chequered flag on the home track of his toughest rival in second place. With two races left on the calendar only seven points separate Armindo and Tandy – the two drivers who have divvied up all the victories between themselves at Germany’s fastest brand trophy series. At the same time, their closest pursuer, Uwe Alzen (Germany, Team Herberth Motorsport PZ Olympiapark), was thrown back in the overall classification due to tyre damage. Whilst the British pole-sitter Nick Tandy got away well at the start to increase his gap lap for lap and bring home an unchallenged victory, Nicolas Armindo had his hands full. Only in the first third of the race could the 28-year-old take a breather. After that, Armindo had to deal with the Dutch guest starter from Konrad Motorsport, Jeroen Bleekemolen, and his pursuer Martin Ragginger. For the Austrian from Schnabl En- gineering the main goal was not to lose contact to the front-runners. But all hopes were dashed when he was sidelined in the twelfth lap. Bleekemolen went on to cele- brate the third podium spot. For the second time this season, Christian Engelhart brought home a well-deserved fourth place.
