Last fall, Kimi Räikkönen and Antonio Giovinazzi, the two drivers of the Formula 1 team Alfa Romeo Racing ORLEN, worked on the final touches with pre-production versions of the Alfa Romeo Giulia GTA and Alfa Romeo Giulia GTAm in Balocco. Now Räikkönen returned once again to the Alfa Romeo proving ground in northern Italy to personally assess the final configuration of the most powerful sports sedan in the brand's history. The 2007 Formula 1 world champion gave the thumbs-up signal, judging, "I really like both models. We're dealing with a car that you can use in everyday life but also take to the racetrack. It's a lot of fun."

Mercedes-AMG celebrating its anniversary in the Spa-Francorchamps 24-hour race with three exclusive GT3 special editions

30 July 2021 38 Views

For Mercedes-AMG, this year’s TotalEnergies 24 Hours of Spa is all about a special anniversary: 50 years ago almost to the day, the classic race at the Ardennes circuit resulted into the first major success that put the still young AMG brand onto the major motorsport stage almost overnight. Hans Heyer and Clemens Schickentanz won their class and finished second overall with the Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL 6.8 AMG, a sensation that still has its effect on the Mercedes-AMG spirit to the present. As homage to the legendary red saloon car that defeated the opposition with the considerably lighter race cars back in 1971, Mercedes-AMG has developed the limited edition “50 Years Legend of Spa”. It includes all three GT3 generations that have been available since 2010. For maximum exclusivity, the number has been limited to one of each. Next to the iconic red livery, the three unique pieces incorporate further exclusive characteristics and specifications. The special editions as well as a replica of the legendary Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL 6.8 AMG are on public display for the first time during this year’s 24-hour race at Spa.

Ralf Brandstätter to Way to Zero Convention – Interview

3 May 2021 59 Views

At the first Way to Zero Convention, Volkswagen today gave details of its plans for decarbonizing the company and its products. The company intends to be net carbon neutral by 2050 at the latest. A new interim milestone is the targeted 40-percent reduction in CO2 emissions per vehicle in Europe by 2030 – substantially outperforming the Group target of 30 percent (baseline: 2018). As a result, an average Volkswagen would emit around 17 tons less carbon dioxide. As well as accelerating the transition to e-mobility, the production (including supply chain) and operation of electric cars is to be made net carbon neutral. Added to this is the systematic recycling of the high-voltage batteries from old electric vehicles.
