am 3. From on 3 June 2011 at 18:50 │ Comments {0}

Both are on the road touring car series at the weekend, despite their distance. During the World Championships in Budapest makes a stop, try the British Oulton Park defeat.

After a four-week break, driving the BTCC her next race. The traditional route in Oulton Park is on the agenda. The course is located in the north of England, specifically in Cheshire, in the middle of a park landscape of the same building and is a traditional British lines. In contrast, as many airfield courses like Silverstone or Snetterton, we had here in the hilly landscape fashioned a course that is very demanding. This is partly due to the non-rich in every corner sized run-off areas, the other is the route that demands thanks to a number of blind curves a lot. Because it at Oulton Park but both fast and slow passages are, it is not easy to pick a favorite. To the BTCC has once again turned to the "BoP" screw.

Thanks to a terrific organizational performance by IMSA and ACO will be on Sunday evening Le Mans sports cars on both sides of the Atlantic at the same time be on the road.

Which has this year secured an appointment at the Hungaroring, a circuit that is known from Formula 1 for its many curves and few straight lines and the resulting Überholproblematik.
