Introducing this year's McLaren Hondo MP4 / 31

Studio photos of this year's McLarn race car appeared online a few moments ago. It shows a taller side safety cell, and the S-duct, a system for reducing drag on the front wing, appears to be hidden in the nose of the car. However, although Woking claimed that they would aim for the narrowest possible rear, at first glance it does not seem that this would be any narrower than last year. Previously, we would say it is even slightly wider. The official presentation of the team will follow today around noon, when more information about the car itself will be known. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uOJDROEZ0p8

Ferrari unveiled this year's race car

formula 1

At two o'clock CET, the Ferrari team presented their car, recording the events around the presentation for this season under the slogan Ready-Set-Red. He will be sent to Barcelona a few hours after this important event. As we have already written, the car has been considerably updated compared to previous seasons. It was adapted to the racing style of Sebastian Vettl and Kimi Raikkonen. They changed the mounting, shortened the nose, narrowed the cover and restored the gearbox. The drive unit also deserved a renovation. We will see how all the novelties will work out on the track next week, but for now you can only see the first pictures of the new, this time red-and-white, race car. The most important men, who are enthusiastic about the car and have high expectations at the same time, were the first to speak at the presentation. See

Fiat 500X - Slovenian presentation

Automotive

Yesterday, the Slovenian presentation of the Fiat 500X took place, a new design crossover from the 500 model family, which represents the revival of the traditional Italian car brand. The new model enriches the family, which already consists of the 500, 500C, 500L, 500L Trekking and 500L Living models. These are vehicles that differ in mission and character, but have a common ancestor - the cult Fiat 500. The example of the legendary spiritual predecessor from 1957 is obvious, mainly due to a similarly designed front of the car. The new Fiat 500X is being built at the refurbished SATA factory in Melfi. It will be available in two versions with two different souls: the first is more urban and the second is more field oriented. It will be equipped with efficient diesel and petrol engines, three types of transmission (5 i

BMW x4 test vehicle

Automotive

Today I drove a new, unique BMW X4. This scaled-down version of the BMW X6 is a real feast for the eyes, as it attracts the eyes of passers-by with its sharp and aggressive lines. Under the hood, a 6L diesel engine with a displacement of 3.0L, 258 horsepower, and an excellent all-wheel drive system xDrive, successfully runs on all terrains. There are also three petrol engines with a displacement of 2.0L, 2.8L, 3.5L, and two diesel engines with 3.5L and 2.0L. Consumption of the car is good, given the factors that characterize it. With a consumption of around 6L / 100km, he is not exactly thirsty. However, it increases slightly at petrol stations, but not drastically. Around 8L / 100km, it is a very solid consumption for a city SUV. The seats are very comfortable, the steering wheel has a special sporty shape, these

GP2 represents DRS

GP2

The GP2 racing series of formulas will present the DRS (drag reduction system), which is mounted on the rear wing, in the 2015 season. This is a moving part that allows faster overtaking on some parts of the track, and was first introduced in Formula 1, in the 2011 season. The first tests will begin in October in Europe, on a production car, and later in the Middle East. The reason for this addition lies in Formula 1, as in Formula 1 drivers who previously drove in GP2 compete, so the leaders want to prepare them for a race car that has all these added features that GP2 race car has not had so far. “We’ve always said that we can see amazing racing in GP2 even without the DRS system, or any other device, but if we want to follow our mission of preparing drivers for Formula 1, we need to add

Competition is also present in the Lotus test

formula 1

Renault has sent an invitation to all Formula One teams using their engines for Friday’s unofficial test of Lotus ’E22 race car. Officially, it’s about filming promotional material, but teams can do up to 100 miles on non-racing tires at relatively low speeds that day. The French engine manufacturer will be able to gather some data in as many private tests as possible, after they did much less kilometers in official pre-season tests in Jerez than in Mercedes and Ferrari. Red Bull, Toro Rosso and Caterham, which use Renault powertrains in addition to Lotus, will send a representative to the E22 test on Friday, who will witness the operation of the improved engine, and will be able to share their ideas to solve together.
