Euroopan puolelle LMS-sarjaan on noita R10:jä huhuiltu jo pitempään Joest-tallille. Tosin onhan Audilla ainakin viisi noita R10:jä, kenties rapakon taakse jää pari?
The first Coupe LMP2 coming! The model of the Lola LMP2 is currently in the wind tunnel. Sam Smith, the Head of Media Lola Cars, we kindly provided some details today.
The model is currently in the wind tunnel facility Lola Cars. Sam Smith, in the light of the first results of this shift in the wind tunnel, we said that this could Lola "slam the Porsche," neither more nor less.
Several potential customers, as well as existing customers Lola, have shown interest in this new car, some of them already come to Lola, in Huntingdon in Cambridgeshire.
LMP2 This has been designed around the hull of the Cup LMP1, with a revised suspension geometry, with a third spring in the front. The existing system back, which the team Lola B06/10, for its part gives any satisfaction to Lola.
Saturday we had also said that the effort was obviously focused on aerodynamics. Lola has partnered with computer giant AMD, and has made significant investments in respect of computer-aided design, both with regard to the hardware that the software. This will enable engineers to work in the most effective way on the report support / aerodynamic drag.
This work is led by Julian Sole, who has with him a number of technicians who participated in the design of the Lola-MG 2000-2001.
Saturday has also given us the new LMP1 Cup. It should make its first test in the first week of December. The assembly of the car will begin within the next ten days. It is likely, according to Sam Smith, a customer of Lola proceed with the first shakedown, although everything is not yet finalized. This shakedown will be held in the United Kingdom, the first serious tests were planned in Spain.
Mestaruus on "käytännössä" varma.... Myös protojen kärki ovat mukavan tiiviinä nippuna aika-ajon perusteella.The GT2 championship remains in play entering the weekend, and Jaime Melo fired the opening salvo for Risi Competizione and the Ferrari F403 GT. The Brazilian broke teammate Mika Salo's class record in qualifying with a lap of 1:22.880 for a 0.410-second gap back to Petersen Motorsports/White Lightning's Peter Dumbreck.
Salo and Melo hold a 22-point lead over the Flying Lizard Motorsports duo of Jörg Bergmeister and Johannes van Overbeek in the race for the drivers championship. The race winners receive 23 points. So even if Bergmeister and van Overbeek win, all the Risi pairing needs to do is complete 70 percent of the race distance and finish in the top-10.
Peesaan! :thumbup:Petri Piira sanoi:Ja onnittelut Salolle mestaruudesta :thumbup:
