Mick Schumacher is the third rookie of the 2015 season

German Formula 4 got a new champion. This became Marvin Dienst, who won the title two races before the end of the season. Mick Schumacher, the son of seven-time Formula One world champion Michael Schumacher, certainly received the most attention in the series. The German recorded his first victory in only three races in his first season, but later he was quite inconsistent, and he often got involved in collisions with other racers. Although he was considered one of the best rookies at the start of the season, he was overtaken by David Beckmann and Mike David Ortmann at the end. Little Schumacher is thus the third best rookie of the season, which he finished in tenth place overall. He scored 24 points in 92 races, which is more than his teammate Harrison New

The first kilometers in the new race car dispelled doubts

Rally, WRC

Tim Novak and Uroš Ocvirk recorded the track at the German World Rally Championship and met the Ford Fiesta R2T and its competitors for the first time at the official test (the so-called Shakedown). First impression? Great! “I drove Shakedown five times and even though we tested a combination of different tires, it was faster each time. Although we didn’t look at the time achieved at all, as I was driving a Fiesta and DMACK tires for the first time, I ended up in the golden middle. Of course, most of the reserves are in fast corners, but the race will be long and it would be stupid if it took off from the track in the first kilometers, "said Tim from Germany. He also said that the position of the Ford Fiesta R2T, with which he will compete in the DMACK Fiesta Trophy Cup, is almost better than in the Škoda Fabia R2, and the engine pulls nicely from 4.000 to 7.000 rpm.

The accident at the ADAC Cup race in Aichwald apparently left bigger consequences on Klemen's wrist than the first investigations showed. After a collision with a competitor who fell in front of him, Klemen injured his wrist in a race in Germany, but after an examination by a doctor in Slovenia, he decided that he had to heal the injury well, so he did not go to the MXGP race in Sweden, but missed there will also be a race in Latvia this weekend. “I have to heal the injury well, my wrist is very stressed while driving, and if I don’t heal it well, it will hinder me in the rest of the season. I'm sorry that I have to miss two races, but it doesn't go any other way, "said Klemen Gerčar.

A solid weekend was not rewarded with points

motocross

In the tenth race of this year's MXGP Championship in Germany in Teutschenthal, Klemen Gerčar was not rewarded with new points, although he missed them only by a hair. And this after very solid rides on Saturday and again on Sunday mornings. In the first run, she was 24th in front of an extremely large number of spectators at the track, and in the second run she advanced to 21st place, which was not enough for new points. “I started very solid on Saturday, from run to run, from lap to lap I was able to step up the pace, I improved the times, and most of all I can be satisfied with the qualifying race. It was still a good feeling on Sunday morning, but things didn't go well for me at the race. Unfortunately, the races then have a bit of their own logic, but that’s part of the competitions. When I manage to pass the ride from training and when I am less stressed

Gerčar founded his motocross team

Other sports

Klemen Gerčar, last year's world champion of the MX3 series, has created his motocross team 62 MotorSport, which will compete in all European competitions of the World Motocross Championship, as well as in the ADAC Championship, which takes place on Slovenian and German tracks. Klemen will perform under the watchful eye of one of the best coaches of the sport, Harry Everts. Despite numerous offers, Gerčar joined forces with Husqvarna, which supported him in creating his own team, which is also the first Slovenian team in history to compete in the FIM World Championship and the MXGP series. According to Gerčar, his own team should bring at least three advantages. One is to save a lot of time when there is no need to coordinate plans with another team, and at the same time you have instant access to the workshop, engines and spare parts. The weakness is the strain
