[ALMS] Round 1 - Sebring 12 Hours

[Marco23]

c'è anche scritto che era uno scherzo! ahahahaha

Caspita, ma questo tipo non ha niente da fare, oltre che inventarsi i tempi? Mah...Vabbè, non resta che attendere le qualifiche a questo punto per vedere i tempi.

[Frango]

Beh, senza sapere che era uno scherzo, stavo per rispondervi che i tempi nei test privati lasciano il tempo che trovano...
Le Ferrari 575 nei test fuori campionato erano imprendibili

Sembra da 2m ma è solo un illusione ttica data dall'assenza della "carenatura" nella parte posteriore

Dr. Wolfgang Ullrich (Head of Audi Motorsport)
"Sebring is an important test for the 24 Hours of Le Mans for us. Experience shows that the track is very hard and mercilessly reveals any problem a car has. Therefore it’s particularly important to compete with a newly developed car here. It goes without saying that we hope to be able to gauge the performance of our new Audi R15 TDI from the race, you can only do this when you compete against your competition – and this is the case at Sebring.”



Ralf Jüttner (Technical Director Audi Sport Team Joest)
"We are not as well prepared as we would like to be – but this is actually always the case with a new car. Unfortunately, it hurt us a lot this year that the tests in Europe were affected constantly by bad weather and we have not run in hot conditions like we can expect at Sebring. Furthermore, for the first time we did not test at Sebring before the race – which means we have no experience whatsoever with the Audi R15 TDI on the track. Luckily there is an additional test on the Saturday before the race which we will use. The grid isn’t particularly large at Sebring this time, but the quality is incredible, especially in the LMP1 class. Two Audis, two Peugeots, two Acura/Hondas as part of a grid of 28 cars – it’ll be a hot race!”



Lucas Luhr (Audi R15 TDI #1)
"I’m really looking forward to Sebring! It’s a race of great tradition. It’s a great feeling to compete as defending LMP1 champion at the opening race of the American Le Mans Series season. The target is clear: We want to win! But it won’t be easy. The Audi R15 TDI is in action for the first time in race trim. The competition is strong. We come to Sebring with a few question marks and we’ll see for real exactly where we stand next week. I’m convinced that the R15 TDI will handle even better in Sebring than the R10 TDI. The R10 TDI wasn’t a bad car, but whoever knows Audi knows that every new Audi is even better.”


Mike Rockenfeller (Audi R15 TDI #1)
"I was involved in the development of the Audi R15 TDI for the first time from the very beginning. It was a new and fantastic experience for me. I’ve driven in three tests but we were very unlucky with the weather. We had a hard time during the Sebring race week last year. I hope that we’ll be in a significantly better position this year with the new R15 TDI. It’s clear that Sebring is another test for us, but it’s time to compete against the others on track. I’m interested to see who has made the best of the change in regulations.”


Marco Werner (Audi R15 TDI #1)
"We await Sebring with enormous interest and especially in two respects: Sebring traditionally opens the season, but is also the first race for our Audi R15 TDI. We are really intrigued to see just where we stand with the new car compared to the competition. To start with such a long and hard race is obviously a challenge. Nevertheless, we are targeting the ninth Sebring victory for Audi. It would be fantastic to win the race. I’ve driven six times at Sebring and have won half of my races.”


Dindo Capello (Audi R15 TDI #2)
"Sebring is the first real test for our new Audi R15 TDI. We’ve previously had fantastic debuts at Sebring, both with the R8 and also the R10 TDI. Our goal is to continue this streak. However, we know that it will be particularly difficult this year. We are a behind schedule with our test program since we had bad weather at almost every test. The conditions in Sebring will be completely different. I’m convinced that the R15 TDI will immediately be quick but we have a lot of work as far as the fine tuning is concerned. My personal goal is clear: After three Sebring victories I want to get the ‘Poker’ – which is what we call four wins in Italy.” [/b]


Tom Kristensen (Audi R15 TDI #2)
"Sebring is a very special race held in incredible surroundings with a great atmosphere, a race I have been able to win four times. I sat in the winning car on the debut of both the Audi R8 and Audi R10 TDI – obviously I also hope to be in the same position on the race debut of the new Audi R15 TDI. Dindo (Capello), Allan (McNish) and my other team mates are just as impressed with the R15 TDI as I am. The car is pretty cool. Sebring will show who did their homework properly over the winter and where we stand in comparison to Acura/Honda and Peugeot – obviously also with regard to Le Mans. I’m also really looking forward to Friday evening: The film ‘Truth in 24’ which documents so impressively our Le Mans victory is shown on ESPN. We’ll all watch it as preparation for the race.”

Allan McNish (Audi R15 TDI #2)
"My target is to claim the first victory for the Audi R15 TDI on its debut. This means that we cannot afford to make any mistakes as the competition is very, very tough this year. We’ll have to run at a fast pace. The new Audi R15 TDI has a smaller, lighter engine, but there is an enormous amount of work going on in the background to compensate as best as possible for the restrictions enforced by the regulations. The new car has a better weight distribution and it more agile as a result. The aerodynamics have also been optimized. The R15 TDI is a huge step compared to the R10 TDI which won the 24 Hours of Le Mans three times in succession. I’m looking forward to Sebring and its unique atmosphere with more than 160,000 spectators, the majority of which camp at the track throughout the entire week. Sebring is the world’s second biggest sportscar race.”

Sìsì, l'ala della Peugeot è da 1.6. Cmq è vero, io inizio a non stare più nella pelle per questa prima gara della ALMS che, con Peugeot e Audi iscritte, sarà una delle più belle di tutto il campionato, ma dopotutto...That's Sebring!
