Jenson Button Wants To Extend McLaren Contract!
Posted on August 30, 2011 by Admin
Jenson Button has told McLaren boss Martin Whitmarsh: I want to sign for another year.
A day after his brilliant drive in Belgium where he stormed through the field from 19th to take third, Frome flier Button urged his team principal to take up the option in his contract of another year.
Jenson Button said: "All Whitmarsh has to do is say yes, and I will say yes because I want to be here next year. It's up to the team as to when they approach me, but for me I'm the happiest I've been with the car."
Of the top four teams — McLaren, Red Bull, Ferrari and Mercedes — Button, 31, is the only driver without a guaranteed seat for next season

Ferrari Working Flat-Out On 2012 F1 Car!
Posted on August 24, 2011 by Admin
Ferrari is now working flat-out on the development of what it claims is a 'very innovative' 2012 car, even though it still holds out some hope that it can haul itself back into this year's championship fight.
Fernando Alonso's recent run of good form, which included victory in the British Grand Prix, has put him 89 points behind championship leader Sebastian Vettel and his only realistic hope of closing that gap down dramatically is if his Red Bull rival hits some trouble.
Ferrari team principal Stefano Domenicali says his team's approach right now is on simply trying to win each grand prix, and then in a few race's time the outfit can take a better look to see if there is still a chance of the title.
Meanwhile, he openly admits that the real effort at Maranello is on delivering a much more aggressive car design for next year, having realised the team was too conservative this season.

Alonso Thinks Silverstone Is Title Crunch Point
Posted on June 2, 2011 by Admin
Fernando Alonso reckons the British Grand Prix in July will be the key indicator of whether Ferrari has any chance of fighting for this year's world championship. After falling 74 points behind leader Sebastian Vettel as the reigning champion took his fifth win of the year in Monaco yesterday, Alonso expressed concern that his world title hopes were looking remote.
In his column on Ferrari's website, Alonso said that verdict was influenced by his initial disappointment at losing a race he was confident he could have won.

Fernando Alonso described it as “a special day” after he won his first race with Ferrari, describing his new employers as “the best team in the world”.
The Spaniard finished sixteen seconds ahead of teammate Felipe Massa, who thanked God and everyone who supported him through his accident after claiming his first ever podium place in an opening race.

Porsche Speedster Diecast Models!
Posted on April 4, 2011 by Admin
The Porsche 356 was the company's first production automobile. It was a lightweight and nimble handling rear-engine rear-wheel-drive 2 door sports car available in hardtop and convertible configurations. Design innovations continued during the years of manufacture, contributing to its motorsports success and popularity. Production started in 1948 at Gmünd, Austria where approximately 50 cars were built. In 1950 the factory relocated toZuffenhausen, Germany and general production of the 356 continued until April 1965, well after the replacement model 911 made its autumn 1963 debut. It is estimated approximately half of the total production of 76,000 356s still survive.

Audi R8 GT Diecast Model Soon To Be Released!
Posted on March 21, 2011 by Admin
The ultimate R8 has finally arrived. After repeated demands from Audi enthusiasts for a lighter and more powerful flagship supercar, engineering experts at the manufacturer’s performance arm Quattro GmbH have at last delivered it – and it’s called the R8 GT.
Packing featherweight bucket seats, a wafer-thin front screen and polycarbonate rear, carbon fibre bodykit, magnesium and aluminium parts, plus a 552bhp version of the 5.2-litre V10, the GT could be one of the most impressive sports cars ever. But is it better than the Porsche 911 GT3 RS? And can it justify its £142,585 asking price.
Well, there has certainly been no stone left unturned in its development. Specialists at Quattro GmbH have taken the lessons learned from the mighty R8 LMS racing car and applied them to a roadgoing version.
In addition to the use of that less weighty glass, sound deadening has been removed, the braking system is lighter and so is the battery. This strict diet means the car tips the scales at 100kg less than the standard R8 V10.

Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 To Be Released by Hot Wheels Elite!
Posted on March 1, 2011 by Admin
The wait is over ladies and gentlemen: Lamborghini’s next hypercar has made its world debut at the Geneva Motor Show, and dare we say what a hypercar it is! The new Bull God will feature an earth shattering 700hp V12 and the highest power to weight ratio of any car in its class. Yes, this is the new, long waited Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4.
Lamborghini is really good at creating sinister super sports cars, but it is equally as talented at naming them. According to the company, "Aventador" was the name of a bull that entered into battle on October 1993 at the Saragossa Arena, earning the "Trofeo de la Peña La Madroñera" for its outstanding courage. Having the courage to go up against a new world of super sports cars will be the name of the game for the new Lamborghini flagship. Today’s world is extremely high-tech and many new players have entered the arena. Lamborghini has been promoting its carbon-fiber monocoque technology and the Aventador’s 2.9 second 0-62mph, but will that be enough?
According to Stephan Winkelmann, President and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini. "The Aventador is a jump of two generations in terms of design and technology, it’s the result of an entirely new project, but at the same time it’s a direct and consistent continuation of Lamborghini’s brand values.
