Re: CAMPEONATO MUNDIAL FIA GT1 2011
El Campeonato Mundial llega a su mitad de temporada este fin de semana con la carrera en Silverstone y donde además los equipos estaran buscando obtener uno de los trofeos mas prestigiosos dentro de los deportes de motor, el Royal Automobile Club Tourist Trophy, los ganadores de la Championship Race el domingo tendran el honor de ver sus nombres grabados en el trofeo junto a los demas protagonistas que lo han hecho como es tradicion desde 1905. El año pasado Warren Hughes y Jamie Campbell-Walter tuvieron el honor de ganarlo, bajo el formato FIA GT1.
Vamos con algunos updates para este fin de semana:
- Despues de estar ausentes en Saschsenring, el equipo DKR Engineering regresa este fin de semana junto a Michael Rossi una vez mas, pero esta vez tendra como compañero al piloto de la Renault Megane Trophy, Dimitri Enjalbert. Ambos tendrán una doble faena, ya que tambien estarán participando con la FIA GT3, Dimitri con un Aston Martin DBRS9 del equipo LMP Motorsport con Bernard Delhez, mientras que Rossi lo hara en un Audi R8 del equipo Sainteloc Pheonix Racing al lado de Pierre Hirschi.
- Belgian Racing también hará cambios en su alineación de pilotos una vez mas, Antoine Leclerc tendrá como compañero en la busqueda del Tourist Trophy a Markus Palttala que ya tiene bastante conocimientos con respecto a la categoria y a los Ford GT ya que el año anterior estuvo con Marc VDS. Palttala tambien acompañara a la FIA GT3 en el Ford GT del equipo alemán Fischer Racing.
- Los grandes ausentes en Silverstone seran los del equipo Swiss Racing con sus Lamborghini Murcielago LP 670 R-SV. Ambos autos no han podido ser reparados a tiempo luego del accidente que sufrieron el dia domingo de la fecha anterior en Sachsenring, el equipo hizo todo lo posible en conjunto con Reiter Engineering por tener los autos listos a tiempo para este fin de semana pero lamentablemente no fue posible y hoy tomaron la decision de hacer el anuncio oficial y este fin de semana solo tendremos 16 autos en parrilla.
Silverstone preview: What the drivers say ...
© FIA GT1
Jamie Campbell-Walter, Sumo Power GT Nissan GT-R No.21
“Having won the Tourist Trophy at Silverstone last year in the Sumo Power GT Nissan GTR, needless to say, I am really looking forward to going back there. I think the car will be really well suited to the fast sweeping corners and long straights.
“The key is to make sure you have a well-balanced car, be committed in the fast corners and don't over-drive in the tight and twisty sections. As the home race, there is no extra pressure, but even more motivation to get my name on the trophy twice. It will be great to be the first International event to use the new Silverstone 'Wing'.
Nicky Pastorelli, All-Inkl.com Munnich Motorsport Lamborghini No.37
“We’re looking forward to Silverstone, because in theory it should suit our car a little bit better than the Sachsenring. I hope we can do well there – after all the bad luck we have had, we were very happy to get the result in Germany. We really have to catch up a little bit if we are to get a good position in the championship, so I hope our form can continue at Silverstone.”
Andrea Piccini, Hexis AMR Aston Martin No.4
“I haven’t raced on the new layout, but it’s only a couple of corners different. The track should be very well suited to the Aston Martin, and with our weight penalty that’s very welcome.”
Darren Turner, Young Driver AMR Aston Martin No.8
“Silverstone is what the car is designed for really. It’s an aero-dependent car, it’s always very strong on high speed corners and Silverstone is one of those circuits. I’d say out of all the races we do this year it should be the one that suits the car, but saying that everyone has closed up, all the manufacturers are very strong at nearly every circuit now. The gap is much smaller than it was last year between each car and each circuit, so I’m sure it is going to be very competitive.”
Bas Leinders, Marc VDS Racing Team Ford GT No.40
“I really, really want to be on the podium at Silverstone, together with our sister car. The team has been working so hard, preparing for GT1, Blancpain and Le Mans, and they really deserve a good result.
"The key to Silverstone is always finding the right compromise between the fast and slow corners. The Sachsenring was so twisty and tight that it really suited the Fords, but Silverstone with long straights and more open corners will be more difficult. With all the bad luck that Marc (team-mate Hennerici) and I have already experienced this season however, we are sure to be extremely lucky very soon – why not at Silverstone? The Marc VDS Racing Team is all about a passion for motor racing and we want to give joy to all our members and fans.”
Mike Hezemans, Exim Bank Team China Corvette No.11
“I have very good memories of Silverstone – I qualified on pole position there in 2006 and 2007, so it’s a good circuit for me. We could have had pole last time out as well at the Sachsenring, and with the field being so balanced this season everyone has a chance – including us.
“It’s an okay track for the Corvette really, not specifically good or bad. It’s great to be racing there though, especially under the new pit complex which will be better than before. The starts have really been dramatic this year in GT1, so its also good we have the new starting line as the track is a little bit wider. I just really want to be on the podium – we could have done it in Germany but we lost pole, and now we really want to make up for it this weekend.”
David Brabham, Sumo Power GT Nissan GT-R No.21
“The Silverstone track should suit our car. I am really looking forward to it, especially as it’s Silverstone and our home event. Like all tracks, you have to push the car and yourself to the limit, but at Silverstone you cannot afford any mistakes. It also really helps to get a clear lap here, without getting stuck in ‘traffic’ or involved in too many battles.
“As for being the home race, I try and avoid pressure, as this does nothing to help performance. I’m always motivated, but it would be especially good if I can help Jamie (Campbell-Walter) retain his Tourist Trophy title and, at the same time, get my name on the trophy as well."
Clivio Piccione, Hexis AMR Aston Martin No.3
"For me, my objective is clear - we have to fight for the win in both races and bring the maximum points back We have no ballast, and I expect the Aston Martin to be really fast on its home ground. I love Silverstone and I'm really looking forward to going there - it is a track you can really attack every lap. It is home for Aston Martin, and also a bit for me as I spent four years racing in the UK."
Peter Dumbreck, JR Motorsports Nissan GT-R No.22
“I always look forward to a home race and there is no doubt that Silverstone, with it's fast flowing corners and wide track, will suit the GT-R more than Sachsenring. I hope we have a nice dry weekend and a large crowd to cheer us on.
“There are a lot of medium to high speed corners at this track. It's important to have a good car without too much understeer through these sections and then be able to get the power down for the straights. The track is quite bumpy in some areas, so it's important to have a set-up that can cope with an undulating track through the bends.
“Of course to win the Tourist Trophy would be very special, but I don't think we need any more motivation than we already have. We need to push very hard in every race and score as many points as possible, because it's a long year with the title of "World Champion" at the end of it for the best performing team and drivers.”
Antoine Leclerc, Belgian Racing Ford GT No.10
“We showed that we had the potential to be in the top five performance-wise in Sachsenring, so we expect to be even more competitive as the season goes along. I’m looking forward to discovering Silverstone now – it’s a fast and very exciting circuit for drivers. To my mind, Beckett’s is important to secure a good lap and I’ve been training on my simulator, like I did for Sachsenring, Portimao and Abu Dhabi. A top five finish in England would be great for Belgian Racing."
Enrique Bernoldi, Sumo Power GT Nissan GT-R No.20
“For sure, Silverstone will be better than Sachsenring. I’m sure it will be good for the Nissan GT-R because of its long straights and fast corners. We must try to be smooth and avoid making mistakes – and you must not try to over-drive the car."
Stef Dusseldorp, Hexis AMR Aston Martin No.3
"I've never driven there before, only on my PlayStation, so it will be a new experience for me. Luckily Clivio (Piccione) knows the track and we have the data, so I'll have to learn quickly. We showed good speed in Qualifying at Sachsenring, but got eliminated in the first turn for the Championship Race. We could have finished on the podium and scored a lot of points, so we have positive feelings about our pace but not about the points we got."
Michael Krumm, JR Motorsports Nissan GT-R No.23
“We are confident that the track will suit us better than Sachsenring and the victory with the GT-R last year gives us a good baseline for Silverstone. It's easy to make a mistake in the new, very high-speed section. I remember that, when you push just a little bit too much, you are off the track and the lap is ruined, so keeping it just a little bit under the limit is going to be the key.
“Silverstone is a place with big tradition and I really would like to win here especially. But so do all the Brits – obviously - so it’s going to be an extra-tough battle this time.”
Marc Hennerici , Marc VDS Racing Team Ford GT No.40
“Silverstone is a track that requires two things: a high maximum speed and good aerodynamics, and we only have the latter. We know that the Aston Martins will be very quick there, and the Lamborghini is extremely quick on every track. It’s not going to be easy, but I’m still waiting for our first podium of 2011 and hopefully this will come at Silverstone – where I have won before in WTCC.
"The Sachsenring was very well suited to the Ford, so it’s not certain we will be able to perform at the same level in Silverstone. On the other hand, the team is improving during the season and we understand the car in combination with the tyres much better now than we did at the beginning of the season. The team is highly motivated, so I think we will do a good job in Silverstone.”

Re: CAMPEONATO MUNDIAL FIA GT1 2011
Ya le dieron luz verde al plan de Ratel...OscarF21 escribió:Si no hay una buena lista de inscritos a mas tardar en Julio podria ser el final de la GT1
Uno de sus planes para poder cumplir con el objetivo de tener alrededor de 10 marcas presentes la proxima temporada es permitir la incorporacion de autos categoria GT3 y GTE (GT2) modificados (un GT3 podria ajustarse al peso minimo de GT1 que son 1200kg, se le incorpora un restrictor asi como un kit aerodinamico) para permitirles competir contra los actuales GT1, entre las 3 categorias hay alrededor de 15 modelos y marcas presentes actualmente lo que beneficiaria enormemente a la categoria para poder mantenerla en pie. De hecho este concepto conocido como "Balance of Performance" recibio cierta aceptacion al ser parte de las conversaciones en 2007-2008 cuando se formulaba el actual reglamento.
Ahora solamente ocupa el apoyo unanime de los actuales equipos que participan en el campeonato para que su plan funcione ya que de no ser asi, segun el reglamento de estabilidad de la FIA (quien es la encargada de las Regulaciones Tecnicas) las nuevas regulaciones divulgadas este año podran entrar en rigor hasta el 2013 si no se cuenta con ese apoyo de los equipos.
Tambien hay que recordar que a los modelos Aston Martin DBR9 y Corvette C6.R ya no se les permitira correr el proximo año, por eso la inclusion de autos GTE al Campeonato Mundial le vendria bien a Aston Martin ya que podria participar con su Vatange GT2.
Ratel organizo una cena la semana anterior para recibir a las marcas interesadas en entrar al Campeonato FIA GT1 pero se ha negado a decir quienes acudieron a la cita pero se cree que McLaren y Lotus estuvieron presentes ese dia, de hecho el director ejecutivo de McLaren Martin Withmarsh ha confirmado que ha estado en contacto con Stephan Ratel con respecto a sus futuros planes para el campeonato.
Ratel ocupa la aprobacion de los equipos este mes para que asi los cambios en el reglamento pueda ir al Consejo Mundial de la FIA en junio. Asi que atentos al foro mas adelante para ver en que termina esto.
"The FIA also confirmed an overhaul of its FIA GT1 World Championship, which will remain a standalone sprint-race series format. Beginning in 2012, 2009-spec GT2 cars and 2011-spec GT3 cars will be eligible to compete alongside the current batch of GT1 cars.
All three categories of cars will be performance balanced in order to provide a single-class of GT cars within the Stephane Ratel-run championship, which will become known as the FIA GT World Championship.
Despite the similarity between names of the FIA GT Endurance World Cup (for ACO-spec GTE cars) and the FIA GT World Championship (for a mix of GT-spec cars), both championships will remain standalone, according to reliable sources." - John Dagys para speedtv.com

Re: CAMPEONATO MUNDIAL FIA GT1 2011
El piloto brasileño Ricardo Zonta ya no estara mas con el equipo Sumo Power luego de tener algunos conflictos con el equipo semanas atras ya que no estuvo presente con ellos en Sachsenring por participar con su equipo en el Campeonato Brasileño de Stock Cars, mas que todo porque sus patrocinadores le pidieron correr esa fecha en Velopark por lo que James Rumsey quien es el dueño del equipo Sumo Power lo ha catalogado como incumplimiento de contrato. Ademas se espera que mas carreras de la Stock Car coincidan con las de FIA GT1 y Zonta ha declarado que los Stock Cars se han convertido en su prioridad debido a su posicion en el campeonato.

Ademas se espera que mas carreras de la Stock Car coincidan con las de FIA GT1 y Zonta ha declarado que los Stock Cars se han convertido en su prioridad debido a su posicion en el campeonato. Para este fin de semana en Silverstone Warren Hughes acompañara a Enrique Bernoldi en el Nissan GT-R.

Primera victoria de la temporada para Young Driver
Tomas Enge y Alex Muller lograron ganar la carrera clasificatoria de este sabado en Silverstone, esta es la primera victoria para el equipo Young Driver en esta temporada 2011, y recordemos que ambos pilotos no han tenido una buena racha en las dos fechas anteriores debido a varios accidentes que los dejaron fuera de carrera y no permitiendoles sumar puntos para el campeonato, ambos pilotos hicieron una muy buena carrera arrebatandoles la punta de la carrera a los pilotos del equipo JRM Michael Krumm y Lucas Luhr en la mitad de la competencia.
Mientras tanto Krumm y Luhr lograron terminar segundos con el Nissan GT-R #23 por delante de los ganadores de la Pole para esta carrera, Mike Hezemans y Andreas Zuber, los pilotos de Nissan lograron superar al Corvette gracias a una excelente largada que les permitio ubicarse primeros al llegar a la primera curva, lamentablemente el equipo espero una vuelta mas para entrar a pits con respecto a sus mas cercanos perseguidores, lo cual les costo la punta con el Aston Martin, una vez el Nissan salio de Pits ya estaban segundos.
El drama aparecio en la primera vuelta de carrera cuando el GT-R #21 de Sumo Power tuvo un fuerte contacto con la parte trasera del Aston Martin #8 de Young Driver en la curva 4 que lo hizo entromparse y llevarse de paso al Nissan #22 de JRM, esto les impidio a los 3 autos continuar la carrera debido a los daños. Tampoco fue un buen dia para los Ford GT de Marc VDS, Maxime Martin con el auto #41 tuvo que retirarse al inicio con problemas en la suspension trasera debido a un toque con el Lambo de Markus Winkelhock, tambien al inicio de la carrera y Bas Leinders por su parte tuvo problemas con la presion de gasolina a falta de 10 minutos para el final.

Re: CAMPEONATO MUNDIAL FIA GT1 2011
Descalifican a Enge y Muller!
La alegria en el equipo Young Driver por su primera victoria de la temporada duro poco, ya que fueron excluidos porque luego del escrutinio se encontro que el aleron trasero no cumplia con lo establecido en el reglamento, tambien el Aston Martin de Stef Dusseldorp y Clivio Piccione que termino sexto fue descalificado por las mismas razones, esto quiere decir que la victoria pasa a manos del equipo JRM y los pilotos Michael Krumm y Lucas Luhr mientras que Mike Hezemans y Andreas Zuber pasan a ocupar la 2da posicion.
A ambos Aston Martin se les permite formar parte de la parrilla mañana domingo, pero tendran que partir desde las ultimas posiciones. Esperemos que ambos pilotos del equipo Young Driver puedan tener un poco mas de suerte, ya que una vez mas se quedan sin un resultado al final de la carrera.

JRM Nissan takes Tourist Trophy in Silverstone thriller
JRM Nissan claimed the Tourist Trophy with a thrilling victory in the Championship Race at Silverstone.
Less than half a second separated the top three cars at the finish, with the No.7 Young Driver Aston Martin and No.11 Exim Bank Team China Corvette swarming over the back of the lead Nissan.
Lucas Luhr held on the in the No.23 GT-R however, earning him and team-mate Michael Krumm victory - and the prestigious RAC Tourist Trophy.
After a clean start, the race hinged around a crucial period at the halfway stage when a Safety Car period coincided with the opening of the pit lane.
Richard Westbrook in the No.22 JRM Nissan had been working his way through the field, but made contact with Stefan Mucke in the No.8 Young Driver Aston Martin. As the pair recovered with stricken cars, Mucke chased Westbrook down and the pair made contact again, writing off both cars,
Prior to the incident, which brought out the Safety Car, Luhr and Krumm had lain second behind the lead Young Driver Aston Martin of Enge and Muller, but jumped into the lead during the pit stop window.
Muller twice sought to find a way back through, passing Luhr on the restart and on the final lap, but on both occasions Luhr was able to repass immediately, hanging on to take a hard-earned win.
Stef Dusseldorp and Clivio Piccione finished fourth for Hexis Aston Martin, ahead of Marc Basseng and Markus Winkelhock in the No.38 All-Inkl Lamborghini - who now sit second in the overall standings, three points behind new leaders Luhr and Krumm.
Stewards confirmed they would look at the incident between Westbrook and Mucke after the race, in addition to a clash on the restart which ruled out several cars including the No.47 DKR Corvette, which had been fifth before the pit stops.
Bas Leinders and Marc Hennerici finished as the top Ford in the No.40 Marc VDS GT, while both Belgian Racing cars finished inside the points.
26,000 spectators flocked to Silverstone to watch today's action, which saw Michael Krumm and Lucas Luhr claim a trio of accolades for JRM Nissan - victory in the Championship Race, the Tourist Trophy and the lead in the current Drivers' Standings.
