Aston Martin working out of “Portakabins” ahead of F1 factory move

The new Silverstone headquarters will be ready imminently, with some office operations moving by the end of this month. Meanwhile, the wind tunnel will influence car design from 2025.
Aston performance director Tom McCullough reckons the team will gain most significantly from the greater communication the new factory will allow, with the current multi-site set-up “disjointed” as colleagues from …Keep reading

ETRC: season kicks off at magnificent Misano

ETRC: season kicks off at magnificent Misano

Sport news

Reigning Champion Norbert Kiss began last season’s title campaign by taking the pole position and the first victory of each of the two race days. The Hungarian ace will be looking to start his 2023 title defense in very much the same way. 

After winning the championship titles for two consecutive years, Kiss’ rivals are looking to turn the tables and challenge the Hungarian for the crown this season.

Jochen Hahn and Sascha Lenz, who have been Kiss’ closest competitors over the last couple of years, along with the Spanish three-time series titlist Antonio Albacete, as well as the likes of ever-formidable competitors Steffi Halm and André Kursim will all be looking to dethrone Kiss in 2023.

The new season also sees the introduction of the Goodyear FIA European Young Drivers’ Champion category, open to any driver under the age of 30. The aim of the new category is to boost the prospects of young truck racing drivers and to find the FIA ETRC stars of tomorrow. 

The highly successful Innovation Camp returns to the paddock this season, showcasing the latest sustainable developments and alternatively powered vehicles in the industry. 

The efforts of the Goodyear FIA ETRC to make truck racing more sustainable and to utilise its platform to accelerate the switch to and acceptance of alternatively powered heavy goods vehicles have been recognised by an independent Motorsport Sustainability ranking. The Goodyear FIA ETRC was ranked 16th overall out of 105 globally recognised two- and four-wheeled motor sport championships, acknowledging the efforts of the series to reach net zero by 2038 and utilising its platform to drive change in the haulage industry. 

The 2023 season is angling up to be as competitive and exciting as 2022 was. Tune in to watch the action from Misano live across the Goodyear FIA ETRC channels from Saturday.

What Ferrari’s floor update path reveals about its F1 2023 priorities

Rather than chasing an out-and-out performance deficit between itself and Red Bull in all conditions, it has had to get on top of why it appears to be close to its rival in qualifying but is far adrift in the race.
There is no straightforward answer to it, as it is not a simple case, like Mercedes has, of realising its concept does not work and it needs to head in another direction.
That is …Keep reading

A total of 23 rivers – including the Santerno that runs within metres of the Imola paddock – burst their banks following the heavy rain in the region at the start of this …Keep reading

Bottas in talks to help collapsed KymiRing project

The track project was originally conceived in 2007 and by 2019 was ready to host a small MotoGP test ahead of a full motorcycle grand prix the following season as part of a five-year contract with promoter Dorna Sports.
But the first two attempts at running the event were lost to the COVID-19 pandemic, and any plans to run the race behind closed doors were hurt by incomplete construction of the …Keep reading

How McLaren’s F1 hopes rest on a game of millimetres

The team was open, ever since it first revealed its 2023 challenger, that the launch specification was not where it wanted to be, and that a new development path was needed.
The first fruits of that labour appeared at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, as McLaren introduced a revised floor that had some very alternative treatments around the edges.
The fact that the McLaren updates appear visually …Keep reading
