RALLYX: Ekstrom announces World RX title bid

Written By kolimtiga on Rabu, 01 April 2015 | 23.01

By Hal Ridge Wednesday, April 1st 2015, 15:55 GMT

Ekstrom, World RX

DTM star Mattias Ekstrom has declared he'll also "drive enough races to become World Rallycross champion" this year, in announcing a dual 2015 programme.

With his own outfit, EKS RX, Ekstrom contested three World RX events in 2014, winning on home soil in Sweden and finishing second in Germany.

This year, he'll enter the championship in an Audi S1 Quattro alongside compatriot Anton Marklund, who was moved to the squad from Marklund Motorsport.

"We're happy to announce that we will do the full world championship. This was the plan from the beginning when we started the project," Ekstrom said.

"Anton and I will share the number one status and do as many races as we can to become world champions, both as a team and as drivers. If it's me [who is champion] then I'm really happy, and if it's Anton then that's also good.

"In the teams' championship, I think we have a very good chance. I like collecting trophies and it's a hobby of mine to polish them, so I will continue to do that until I stop racing and maybe even after."

Ekstrom is targeting a third DTM crown with Audi, and that campaign starts at Hockenheim next month in a double header with World RX, while the DTM finale also clashes with the Italian World RX round.

With Marklund racing in the newly-created Audi TT Cup at DTM events, Ekstrom refused to be drawn on potential stand-ins after a number of drivers represented EKS RS in 2014.

"The biggest chance for wildcard guys in the team will be the races we are not sure we can do, which will be Hockenheim and Italy," he said.

"The rest we will do ourselves and try to do as well as possible. Last year I think we had a good driver line-up.

"We have been contacted by around 40 drivers since the last race last year, so we've got a pretty good network. Our aim is to win, so we will pick the guy who we believe can drive the fastest."

Ekstrom is set to join Marklund on the grid for the very first TT Cup round at Hockenheim, which would see him race in three classes on the same weekend.

"Last year I proved that I can win in both cars," he said of his primary campaigns.

"I have felt I became a better qualifier in DTM after I started rallycross. In rallycross you have no time to start slowly and increase your pace, you have to be on the limit straight away.

"In the other direction, I have learnt a lot from the option tyre in DTM, even in only six laps in rallycross that can make a difference, the tyres can get very hot in that time."

F1: Tost: 'Stupid' Verstappen critics silenced

By Edd Straw and Lawrence Barretto Wednesday, April 1st 2015, 14:40 GMT

Verstappen, Toro Rosso, Malaysia

Toro Rosso boss Franz Tost believes "stupid people" who criticised Max Verstappen as too young for Formula 1 will have been silenced by his first two grands prix.

Verstappen, the youngest ever F1 driver at 17, became its youngest scorer as well when he finished seventh in last weekend's Malaysian GP, having qualified sixth in the wet.

Asked by AUTOSPORT if he felt Verstappen's critics were now answered, Tost replied: "I said this in October and November when all the people criticised: he will answer them on the racetrack because the answer on the racetrack means stupid people can understand."

Verstappen's team-mate Carlos Sainz Jr - also an F1 newcomer - has scored points in both the first two races of 2015, and Toro Rosso technical director James Key said the duo do not seem like rookies at all.

"I think the drivers did brilliantly in really difficult conditions," Key told AUTOSPORT.

"But they're both doing exactly what we want them to and the feedback in the race about the tyres is exactly what you want.

"It doesn't feel like they're rookies in many respects.

"There's no major drama behind, they just got on with the job."

Tost added that he has been particularly impressed by Verstappen's and Sainz's work ethic.

"I'm more than happy with both of the drivers," said Tost. "Both of them have done a fantastic job without any mistakes.

"They are open-minded and they want to learn until late at night.

"They want to see what is going on, what's being changed on the car and this understanding helps them perform well.

"They are also very high-skilled drivers."

GP2: King leads Bahrain GP2 test

Wednesday, April 1st 2015, 15:05 GMT

King, GP2 Bahrain

Manor Formula 1 team development driver Jordan King topped the timesheets for Racing Engineering on the opening day of GP2's second pre-season test at Bahrain International Circuit.

Having been 13th in the morning, King sat atop the times for the bulk of the afternoon running, and asserted his place with a 1m41.494s lap set with half an hour to go, after Norman Nato and Marco Sorensen had briefly gone fastest during the final hour.

Mitch Evans was King's closest challenger, with a 1m41.608s, despite bringing the day to a premature end when he stopped on track in the dying minutes.

The New Zealander had earlier set the morning pace with a 1m42.479s, ahead of Nato and Sorensen.

Only 16th in the morning, Sergey Sirotkin jumped up to third late in the afternoon, ahead of McLaren protege Stoffel Vandoorne, Sorensen, Julian Leal and Nathanael Berthon.

Reigning GP3 champion Alex Lynn ended the day 16th, one spot ahead of Nick Yelloly, who is testing with Hilmer Motorsport after parting company with European Le Mans Series squad Jota Sport last month. Completing his maiden GP2 running, Yelloly was 12th in the morning.

The three-day test continues on Thursday.

GT: Mardenborough released from hospital

Sunday, March 29th 2015, 15:52 GMT

Nissan, Nurburgring VLN 2015

Jann Mardenborough has been released from hospital after the Nurburgring Nordschleife accident in which a spectator died on Saturday, while GT3 cars have been temporarily banned from the famous track.

Mardenborough's Nissan GT-R NISMO GT3 became airborne in the accident at the Flugplatz corner, hitting the barriers and then flipping over the debris fence.

One spectator was killed and others were taken to hospital, with the last two released on Sunday.

The Nissan had been contesting the opening round of the VLN endurance series in preparation for its Nurburgring 24 Hours entry this year.

A Nissan statement said: "After the terrible events during yesterday's VLN race, Nissan is pleased to have received information that the two injured spectators have been released from hospital.

"Jann Mardenborough has completed a series of medical tests and has also been released from hospital.

"Naturally he is very distressed about the outcome of yesterday's accident.

"The vehicle has been impounded by the German authorities and Nissan has offered full cooperation in their investigation.

"Everyone at Nissan would like to again extend their deepest sympathies to the family of the deceased and to the spectators who were hurt.

"Nissan would also like to thank everyone for the support they have shown for the fans involved, the team and for Jann Mardenborough."

German motorsport's governing body the DMSB has announced that GT3 cars have been barred from competition on the Nordschleife until further notice following the accident.

GT3 machinery has been the headline category in both the VLN and the 24 Hours.

NASCAR: Kurt Busch on pole at Fontana

Written By kolimtiga on Sabtu, 21 Maret 2015 | 23.01

Saturday, March 21st 2015, 01:11 GMT

Kurt Busch takes Fontana NASCAR pole 2015

Kurt Busch dominated qualifying for the fifth NASCAR Sprint Cup race of the season at Fontana, only his second event back after suspension.

The Stewart-Haas driver had topped the earlier practice session and set the fastest times in the second and final segments of qualifying to head team-mate - and winner of the last two Cup races - Kevin Harvick.

Busch had sat out the first three races of 2015 during a legal case over assault allegations.

Last year's Fontana polesitter Matt Kenseth managed third after setting the fastest time of the entire session in the first qualifying instalment, followed by David Ragan - subbing for an injured Kyle Busch in the #18 Joe Gibbs Toyota - and 2014 Fontana race runner-up Kyle Larson.

The most notable absentee from the final qualifying showdown was Joey Logano, who was only able to muster 13th and missed out on the final qualifying segment for the first time since Talladega last year.

Behind Logano and also missing out was Jimmie Johnson. The Hendrick Motorsports driver has five wins and a pole in 20 races at the track but struggled in Turn 1 and 2 during his second qualifying lap, leaving him 14th.

Last week's Phoenix runner-up Jamie McMurray had a difficult session and failed to progress past the first segment of qualifying. The Ganassi driver could only manage 26th.

Roush Fenway Racing particularly struggled on the aero-dependant Fontana track, with Ricky Stenhouse Jr its highest-placed car in 27th. Greg Biffle managed 29th and Trevor Bayne 36th.

Brett Moffitt qualified the #55 Michael Waltrip Racing car in 30th, after Brian Vickers was ruled out of the weekend following a recurrence of blood clots that interrupted his racing in 2010 and '13.

Front Row Motorsport is now onto its third driver change of the year after losing Ragan to Gibbs and Moffitt to Waltrip.

Chris Buescher took over the #34 Front Row entry and made his Cup qualifying debut in the process, taking 33rd.

Reed Sorenson and Travis Kvapil failed to qualify.

USC: Pla takes commanding Sebring pole

By Gary Watkins Friday, March 20th 2015, 22:41 GMT

Oliver Pla, Krohn Racing Ligier, Sebring 12 Hours 2015

Olivier Pla set two laps good enough for pole position aboard the Krohn Racing Ligier-Judd/BMW JSP2 in qualifying for the Sebring 12 Hours.

The Frenchman ended up on a 1m51.152s during the 15-minute prototype class qualifying session, which put him three tenths ahead of Ryan Dalziel's Extreme Speed Motorsports HPD ARX-03b.

Dalziel had trailed Pla by seven tenths, but he improved on his last flying lap to a 1m51.455s.

Pla said: "It is something special to be on pole at Sebring.

"The more laps we did, the quicker we went, and I think I had another lap in my pocket if I needed it.

"The track changed a lot because the wind was a lot stronger; it changed the balance and made it loose at the rear."

Joao Barbosa set the best time in a Daytona Prototype to line up third behind the two LMP2 cars in the lead Action Express Racing Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP.

The reigning Tudor United SportsCar champion finished on a 1m52.128s, putting him just ahead of Oswaldo Negri Jr in the Michael Shank Racing Ligier-Honda JSP2, which only just made qualifying after an engine change in the wake of final free practice.

The factory CORE Porsche team blocked out the front two positions in GT Le Mans with Frederic Makowiecki and Patrick Pilet.

Frederic Makowiecki, Sebring 12 Hours 2015Makowiecki jumped ahead of Antonio Garcia's Chevrolet Corvette C7.R to take the class pole with a 1m58.587s and then Pilet improved his best to put the #911 Porsche 911 RSR second with a 1m58.806s.

Garcia ended up third, his 1m58.828s leaving him just ahead of Rahal BMW driver Dirk Werner.

Martin Plowman led the way in the prototype challenge class with a 1m55.257s aboard the BAR1 ORECA-Chevrolet FLM09.

That put him a tenth up on Colin Braun in the CORE Autosport entry.

Jeroen Bleekemolen snatched pole for the GT Daytona class at the wheel of the Riley Motorsports Dodge SRT Viper GT3-R from Mario Farnbacher's Alex Job Racing Porsche 911 GT America.

The Dutchman crossed the line in 2m03.485s to eclipse Farnbacher's best by just five hundredths of a second.

The top two were more than half a second ahead of third-placed Spencer Pumpelly, who ended up on a 2m04.106s in his Park Place Porsche.

Pirelli says it would be difficult to commit to a contract extension that goes beyond 2016 until it knows Formula 1's plans for a rules revolution the following year.

Discussions have taken place over a rapid overhaul of car regulations that would result in wider cars, bigger tyres, 1000bhp and bodywork revisions for 2017 - but nothing has yet been agreed.

Pirelli, which became F1's sole supplier in 2011, said earlier this year that it would favour increasing tyre size to bring the "wow factor" back.

But with a tyre contract expected to go up for tender later this year for 2017 onwards, Pirelli motorsport chief Paul Hembery said that the Italian manufacturer needs plenty of notice of any changes.

"We want to see what is happening in 2017," said Hembery. "If you're going to have a tender process you want to know what you're signing up to.

"What sort of sport are we talking about?"

When asked if Pirelli would sign up without knowing what the rules will be, Hembery said: "It would be hard to, almost impossible to go to the board if there are changes in the offing.

"If you don't know what those changes are, how can you possibly make decisions costing a substantial amount of money? It would be a bit remiss to do that.

"We've not heard any more. When they do the tender process, which we believe will be in the next three months, then we would want that to include what is selected.

"We are happy to do the right thing for the sport. Do they want 19-inch tyres or do we want to stay with 13-inch?

"It's down to the sport, but it has a big impact in the amount of work involved, we need to know when we can do verification testing.

"If the changes are as they described, with 1000bhp and huge rear wings etc, you'd want to be do running in October and November the previous year."

DTM: Paffett: Race one pitstops unlikely

By Mitchell Adam Friday, March 20th 2015, 12:11 GMT

Gary Paffett, DTM

Former DTM champion Gary Paffett isn't expecting many pitstops during Saturday races in 2015, following the release of the series' new double-header weekend format.

Each event will feature a 40-minute race on Saturday and a 60-minute Sunday race, with grids set by standalone qualifying sessions.

The biggest difference, though, is that pitstops to change tyres will be optional on Saturday and mandatory on Sunday.

Paffett told AUTOSPORT that he believes teams will manage the shorter race so as to avoid stopping.

"I think everybody will," he said.

"There was some discussion as to whether the tyre supplier wanted to have a pitstop or not in a 40-minute race.

"But with the tyres we are using, the majority of the circuits are low deg, so I don't expect that in a 40-minute race anyone will want to make a pitstop.

"It's not going to be an advantage, competitiveness-wise, so I don't see anyone wanting to stop."

BETTER TITLE FIGHT PREDICTED

The Mercedes veteran, who switches to DTM newcomer ART Grand Prix for the 2015 season, is a big fan of the returning double-header format.

"I've been saying for years that we don't have enough races," he said.

Gary Paffett, DTM 2014

"First of all there's not enough actual races, so you don't get enough time to score points.

"If you have a bad race, or a failure, you can lose a tenth of your points and it's very tough to make that up over the course of a season.

"Now we have one less weekend, but we have 18 races, which is 18 opportunities to score points.

"I think the move to two races is a great decision.

"The length of the races, to us it doesn't really matter as long as we have one race with a pitstop for a bit of strategy, so it's not a problem to have a sprint race on the Saturday."

Audi's head of DTM Dieter Gass backed up Paffett's claims that the move to 18 races will be better for the title fight.

"One or two races without points does not automatically mean there is no longer a chance of winning the championship," said Gass, who described not stopping in the Saturday races as "basically not a problem".

"I'm assuming that we're going to see more drivers in the battle for the title for a longer time.

"We extensively discussed the new format for a long time. I think we came up with a good approach."
