BMW Motorsport – Future
BMW outlines future motorsport programme.
Munich, 29th April 2010. Motorsport will continue to play a leading role at BMW, with
plans now being implemented for an extensive programme. BMW will significantly
expand its activities in the field of production car racing over the coming years: last
week the executive board of BMW AG came to a positive policy decision regarding
the company’s involvement in the restructured German Touring Car Masters (DTM)
from 2012. For this to happen, certain basic requirements must be met. The
governing body, the ITR, is currently working on these prerequisites. In anticipation of
a positive outcome, BMW Motorsport is making appropriate preparations on the
technical side. The final decision is expected during the year.
The appearance of the BMW M3 GT2 at endurance races forms another important
pillar in the future programme. As is the case this season, in 2011 BMW will contest
a variety of races with this car.
Dr. Klaus Draeger, the BMW AG board member responsible for development, says:
“Following the withdrawal from Formula One, the realignment of our motorsport
programme is raising our presence in production car racing to a whole new level.
BMW sports and touring cars have achieved success right around the world, and
have significantly influenced the brand’s sporting profile right from the word go. For
that reason, we see it as a consistent step to return to our roots after bidding farewell
to Formula One, and to expand our commitment to this discipline.”
BMW Motorsport Director Mario Theissen adds: “The newly aligned programme
offers us many important stages, on which to demonstrate the sporting gene present
in BMW vehicles. The planned return to the DTM is an exciting challenge for our
team. Over the coming months we will be making all the necessary technical
preparations that should allow us to be competitive right from the start should we join
the series in 2012. Thanks to its great tradition in production car racing, the BMW
M3 is predestined to be used as the basic car. In 2011 we will once again be lining
up with our BMW M3 GT2, which is contesting its debut season in Europe this year.”
For 2011, BMW is developing a 1.6-litre four-cylinder turbo engine with direct
injection that can be used in championships in accordance with the new Super2000
regulations – such as the FIA World Touring Car Championship. A new racing car is
being developed as a successor to the current BMW 320si for the coming years.
How the BMW involvement in the World Touring Car Championship will look beyond
the 2010 season will be decided over the course of the year. This year, BMW is
competing in the WTCC with BMW Team RBM and its drivers Augusto Farfus (BR)
and Andy Priaulx (GB).

Customer racing remains of particular interest. BMW will continue to develop
attractive racing cars for professional teams, as the company did most recently with
the BMW Z4 GT3. In the future, the performances of the most successful private
drivers will still be honoured with the BMW Sports Trophy. Over the coming years
the company will continue its great tradition of promoting talented young drivers in
the Formula BMW series. This means that BMW will also offer a comprehensive
training programme for junior drivers. Mario Theissen says: “The fact that seven
Formula BMW graduates are currently plying their trade as regular Formula One
drivers speaks for itself. That is why we will continue our promotion of young talent
from 2011. Over the coming months we will determine precisely what form this
commitment will take.”
BMW enjoys a long history of success in international touring car racing. As early as
the 1960s the brand backed up its new position as a premium manufacturer of
sporty cars with a succession of championship titles. BMW drivers celebrated a total
of twelve European Championship titles with the BMW 2002, BMW 3.0 CSL, and
the BMW 635 CSi Coupé. On top of this, Volker Strycek (DE) guided his BMW 635
CSi to victory in the debut season of the DTM in 1984. The BMW M3 lined up for
the first time in 1987 – and immediately proved to be a superlative racing car.
Roberto Ravaglia (IT) claimed the World Championship title, Winni Vogt (DE) was
crowned European Champion, and Eric van de Poele (BE) won the DTM.
After a second European Championship triumph in 1988, Ravaglia gave the brand its
third and most recent DTM title to date in the BMW M3 in 1989. BMW has 49 race
wins, 30 pole positions and 64 fastest laps to its name in this series. Up to and
including 1992, BMW M3 drivers around the world had notched up over 1,500
individual wins and more than 50 international titles.
The European Championship was relaunched in 2001 – and it was once again a
BMW driver, Peter Kox (NL), who claimed the title. Having already tasted success in
the 2004 European Championship with the BMW 320i, Andy Priaulx (GB) went on to
win the new World Championship with the same car in 2005. Priaulx successfully
defended this title the following two years with the BMW 320si WTCC.
BMW has also celebrated success in the past on the endurance circuit: BMW drivers
have won the 24-hour race at the Nürburgring (DE) on 18 occasions. Among the
achievements of the Munich-based brand was victory at the very first staging of the
race in 1970. In 1998, BMW also claimed the first overall victory with a dieselpowered
car: the BMW 320d. BMW drivers have been victorious 21 times at the
classic in Spa-Francorchamps (BE). In Le Mans (FR), Team BMW Motorsport
clinched a historic overall victory with the BMW V12 LMR in 1999. Competing with
the BMW M3 GTR, BMW topped the manufacturer, team and driver standings in the
American Le Mans Series in 2001.

Me encantaria ver un DTM como en los años dorados, con Alfa Romeo, Audi, Mercedes, Volvo, BMW, y algunas otras marcas que formaban una parrilla impresionante.

Creo que el mundo se va encaminando al desarrollo de los turismos, que realmente son los que le dan de comer a los fabricantes.

Excelente aporte!!

QUE BUENO! Es una gran noticia, pero un poco extra~a porque el a~o pasado vi una entrevista que la hicieron al director de BMW motorsport y dijo que BMW no entraria en ese "campeonato de prototipos" que nada tenian que ver con autos GT
