Carrera Cup Deutschland:  Armindo claims championship concept,
Engelhart celebrates first get

Stuttgart. The Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland deducted the season with a turbulent, cliff-hanger race. The ecstatic winners from the final round are Nicolas Armindo and Orlando Engelhart, the Nick Tandy as the less than fortunate loser. For Frenchman Armindo, fifth place throughout Hockenheim was enough to win the championship. ?The idea?s a dream be realized,? said the 28-season-old. Christian Engelhart?ohydrates elation was no a smaller amount enthusiastic. In his 3rd season contesting Germany?utes fastest brand trophy series, the German (MRS Workforce PZ Aschaffenburg) was pleased with his first earn.

Second place in the 22-lap sprint went to the guest driver pertaining to Hermes Attempto Racing, Jeroen Bleekemolen. The Dutchman gave chase for you to Engelhart in the lover of the race, nibbling away at their advantage lap for lick until, with four runs around to go to the flag, Bleekemolen was nearly glued to the backed bumper of the innovator?s 911. The duel between the two fair rivals during the last ten minutes was a display of motorsport at the finest. At the hole, Bleekemolen, as the increase champion of the Hayundai Mobil1 Supercup, was simply 0.2 seconds shy of the 23-year-old German. Trailing both the in third was yet another guest driver and frailty-champion of the 2009 Carrera Cup season, Jan Seyffarth (Germany) from Group SMS Seyffarth Motorsport.

Notch Tandy, however, left Hockenheim deeply disappointed. For the five-time winner in 2010, everything went very completely wrong right from the begin. With too much tire spin, the Briton acquired away badly from minute, and found himself involved in the start turmoil at the first corner. Shortly before entering your Motodrom, a rival strike his 911 in heat of the battle. Via this collision he was forced into the starts. Tandy was the hottest but by far only some of the victim of the thrashing finale. Guest driver and pole-sitter Ren Rast (Germany, Farnbacher Sporting PZN) was holding a specific lead when he slipped on coolant on the track and the journey into the gravel entice at the Motodrom entrance damaged his 911?s fan belt, signalling the tip of his charge. The british isles?s Sean Edwards (Staff Deutsche Post by tolimit), who had taken on the race from 4th, also fell victim for the skirmishes of the initial two laps.

2011 Porsche 918 RSR Concept

Porsche 918 RSR ? rushing laboratory with even higher-performance hybrid generate

Stuttgart. Dr. Ing. they would.c. F. Porsche AG, Stuttgart, is carrying on to extend its functionality and high efficiency understanding via intensive development are employed in the field of hybrid technology. With the Rolls royce 918 RSR, the supplier of sporty premium cars is presenting a substantial-end synthesis of 2010's successful hybrid methods. The two-seater mid-engine coup 918 RSR clearly reveals what happens when the technology fitted in the particular 911 GT3 R hybrid and the design from the 918 Spyder are used in a modern, innovative super sports car.

With it is highly-efficient flywheel gatherer, the 911 GT3 Third hybrid racing car proved to be an attention magnet through competition racing on this Nrburgring Nordschleife circuit, through the American Le Mans String races (ALMS) in Route Atlanta/USA and the particular ILMC run in China's Zhuhai. It exhibited its massive performance potential under realistic motor rushing conditions against top rivals. The 911 GT3 R Hybrid, referred to in the camera as the "Race Research laboratory" actually surpassed the large expectations of Porsche Motorsport. Competitiveness, high reliability and exemplary fuel efficiency combined with top efficiency underscored the Porsche technicians' essense of generating additional electrical power in an intelligent approach. The 911 GT3 R Hybrid obtains its extra power from its unique vehicle dynamics when stopping. Porsche is now transplantation this technology into your mid-engine coup 918 RSR, the engine sports version of the actual 918 Spyder concept vehicle.

From the tradition proven by classic Porsche long-distance race vehicles such as the 908 long-tale hen house (1969) and the 917 short-tail putsch (1971), the Porsche designers created a link to the postmodernism of the "style follows function" philosophy. Within the 918 RSR, the lines' elegant flow is definitely dominated by muscular steering wheel arches, dynamic air consumption and a pulpit-like cockpit. A noticeable fan wheel between the particular ram air intake pontoons and a rear mollycoddler with RS Spyder size additionally emphasise the rushing laboratory function. The new "liquid metal chrome orange" colour which has already been created underscores the molded curves of the varieties, whilst the typical Audi hybrid orange colour on brake calipers and your bodys longitudinal stripes lends exceptional touches.

Motor racing technologies also dominates within the particularly light, torsionally firm carbon fibre-reinforced plastic-type material (CFRP) monocoque. The V8 engine is a further development of the direct injection engine from the actual successful RS Spyder racing car and now offers the output of precisely 563 hp at twelve,300/rpm in this 918 RSR. The electric motors on the 2 front wheels each lead 75 kW, i.at the. a total of one humdred and fifty kW, to the optimum drive power of precisely 767 hp. This additional power, which is made during braking, is saved in an optimised flywheel gatherer.

In the 918 RSR, the two electric motors offer some sort of torque vectoring function using variable torque distribution for the front axle. This in addition increases agility and improves steering response. Mounted upstream of the rear axle, the mid-engine is integrated with a racing transmission also based on the RS Spyder race car. This further developed six-speed constant-mesh transmission with longitudinally mounted shafts and straight-toothed spur armor and weapon upgrades is operated using a pair of shift paddles behind the particular racing steering wheel.

The actual vehicle's functional equipment underscores its puristic motor racing character. Whether or not it's the characteristic doors which often open obliquely upwards, air intake in the ceiling between the wing opportunities, the quick-action a lock on the front and rear CFRP lids, both the roof-mounted aerials regarding pit radio and telemetry, the RS Spyder-like small, outside front flics or mid-air splitters beneath the the front lip or no-profile racing slicks on 19" wheels with central locking, the vehicle is usually clearly recognised as a great experimental racing laboratory.

Contrary to the 918 Spyder principle car, unadorned racing setting predominates in the inner surface of the 918 RSR. The figure-hugging bucket seat's darkish leather covering cites a history of the gentleman driver; the gear flashes on the sporting steering wheel and any recuperation display on your steering column in the front of the display screen supply the pilot with information. Instead of the particular futuristic, ergonomically avant-garde centre console together with touch-sensitive user user interface from the 918 Spyder concept car, the particular 918 RSR's cockpit is split by a modest console with rocker knobs. Instead of a minute seat, the flywheel accumulator is positioned to the best of the console.

That flywheel accumulator is a motor whose rotor moves at up to thirty seven,000 rpm to store rotation energy. Charging takes place when the two electric motors about the front axle reverse their function during braking processes and operate as generators. At the push of the mouse button, the pilot is in a position to call up the strength stored in the incurred flywheel accumulator and utilize it during acceleration or running over manoeuvres. The flywheel can be braked electromagnetically in this example in order to additionally supply up to 2 x 75 kW, i.e. a total associated with 150 kW, from it is kinetic energy to both the electric motors on the front axle.

This additional strength is available for close to eight seconds when the machine is fully charged. In the successful 911 GT3 Ur Hybrid, this additional energy can also be employed as a consumption support depending on the race situation, e.g. to delay pit stops or reduce the fuel tank volume and then the weight of the car or truck.

With the new 918 RSR racing laboratory, Porsche is now elevating this motor racing hybrid concept to an data-based level. In the 918 RSR, "Porsche Wise Performance" equates to exploration into methods for additional sustainable efficiency improvement under the intensified conditions of the particular race track, lap periods, pit stops and dependability ? a metier in which usually Porsche has been representing its success for over 60 years.

Finally, this starting number, 22, gives homage to the wedding anniversary of a further victory. Back in the days and nights when overall victories in Le Mans were not even an entirely routine subject within the Porsche racing department, the pilots Dr. Helmut Marko and Gijs van Lennep were the first to cross punch the finishing line with 1971's 24-hour classic. The distance record collection by their Porsche 917 short-tail hen house ? 5335.313 kilometres (3315.21 miles) with an average speed connected with 222.304 km/H (138.13 mph) ? did not remain unbeaten for a long time, but for exactly ixl years until 2010. Right at that moment, the 917 in the actual Martini colours was furthermore an experiment and far ahead of its period: a magnesium space figure set new standards with Porsche's lightweight construction area.
