This brings him to within a point of Michaël Rossi (TDS) in the overall standings of the Eurocup Megane Trophy. In last place at the end of the first lap, Rossi climbed to second position, the podium being completed by Sébastien Dhouailly (Team Lompech Sport). http:///en/world_series/megane_trophy/news.php?news=78386.html 05-07-2008 tcm:3-78386 Giedo Van der Garde (P1 Motorsport) is back again with a win at the end of a colourful race. The leader of the Formula Renault 3.5 Series held off pressure from Julien Jousse (Tech 1 Racing) right to the finish. Fabio Carbone (Ultimate Signature) finished third, to become the fourteenth different driver to mount the podium in just eight races! http:///en/world_series/formulaV6/news.php?news=78379.html 05-07-2008 tcm:3-78379 On terrific form in this race, Daniel Ricciardo (SG Formula) once again proved himself the man of the moment in Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0. Starting from pole position the Australian claimed his third victory in five races. His teammate Andrea Caldarelli (SG Formula) finished second benefitting from the retirement Valtteri Bottas (Motopark Academy) to take second place in the overall standings. http:///en/world_series/eurocup_2000/news.php?news=78372.html 05-07-2008 tcm:3-78372 Fabio Carbone (Ultimate Signature) followed his team’s rising fortunes the latest team to have joined the Formula Renault 3.5 Series. The Brazilian made a perfect job of qualifying to take the SuperPole ahead of Julien Jousse (Tech 1 Racing). http:///en/world_series/formulaV6/news.php?news=78364.html 05-07-2008 tcm:3-78364 After those at Spa-Francorchamps, Michaël Rossi (TDS) takes another two pole positions Eurocup Mégane Trophy. Dominant from the start of collective testing, the Frenchman left little hope for the competition as he put himself in the lead right from the word go. In the gentleman-drivers category, Jean-Philippe Madonia copied his team-mate, also taking the two pole positions. http:///en/world_series/megane_trophy/news.php?news=78358.html 05-07-2008 tcm:3-78358 Since the start of the season, Valtteri Bottas (Motopark Academy) has claimed every pole position in Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0. But things changed at Hungaroring as Daniel Ricciardo (SG Formula) brought home the two first pole positions ahead of team mate Andrea Caldarelli. For the first time, a qualifying session was between drivers who did not qualify in the super pole. It was taken by Adrian Quaife-Hobbs (BVM Minardi). http:///en/world_series/eurocup_2000/news.php?news=78343.html 05-07-2008 tcm:3-78343 Michaël Rossi (TDS) continued his love affair with the Hungaroring today, clocking the fastest time in both sessions of collective testing. Maxime Martin (Boutsen Energy Racing) took the second-fastest time, with Sébastien Dhouailly (Team Lompech Sport) in third. http:///en/world_series/megane_trophy/news.php?news=78332.html 04-07-2008 tcm:3-78332 Collective testing continued at the Hungaroring today. The Formula Renault 3.5 Series drivers spent most of the session honing their setups. Only in the closing minutes did the final standings take shape. In the end, Marcos Martinez (Pons Racing) clocked the best time, ahead of Giedo Van der Garde (P1 Motorsport) and Robert Wickens (Carlin Motorsport). http:///en/world_series/formulaV6/news.php?news=78316.html 04-07-2008 tcm:3-78316 After a wet start to the morning, the track dried with each passing lap. As a result, the two groups of Formula Renault 2.0 drivers did not enjoy the same track conditions. In any case, Daniel Ricciardo (SG Formula) and Valtteri Bottas (Motopark Academy) continued their current domination, clocking the fastest times in their respective groups. http:///en/world_series/eurocup_2000/news.php?news=78308.html 04-07-2008 tcm:3-78308 For the first time this season, Charles Pic is competing at a circuit that is not new to him. And the Tech 1 Racing made his experience count as he took the fastest time of this first day of Formula Renault 3.5 Series collective testing. In contrast, Robert Wickens (Carlin Motorsport) has never driven here before. That didn't stop him clocking the day’s second fastest time, however, just a few hundredths of a second behind Pic. http:///en/world_series/formulaV6/news.php?news=78288.html 03-07-2008 tcm:3-78288 After the fast Spa-Francorchamps and Silverstone circuits, the racing now turns to the serpentine Hungaroring. The challenge has changed, but the story was the same as Daniel Ricciardo (SG Formula), Valtteri Bottas (Motopark Academy) and Roberto Mehri (Epsilon Euskadi) took the lead right from the start of the four hours of collective testing. http:///en/world_series/eurocup_2000/news.php?news=78280.html 03-07-2008 tcm:3-78280 The duel between Daniel Ricciardo (SG Formula) and Valtteri Bottas (Motopark Academy) has only just begun if the no-holds barred racing witnessed at Silverstone between the early season in-form drivers is anything to go by. And there's a hefty line-up of forty-two race cars for this meeting, the first time this season that there will be a qualifying race for the 18 drivers who fail to qualify for the SuperPole. http:///en/world_series/eurocup_2000/news.php?news=78264.html 27-06-2008 tcm:3-78264 The Eurocup Mégane Trophy looks like being a very close contest this season. After Michaël Rossi's (TDS) clean sweep at Spa-Francorchamps, Maxime Martin (Boutsen Energy Racing) then took maximum points at Silverstone. Hot on the heels of these two men, Dimitri Enjalbert (Tech 1 Racing) would dearly love to do the same at Budapest. http:///en/world_series/megane_trophy/news.php?news=78259.html 27-06-2008 tcm:3-78259 With a 44-point lead over his nearest rival, Giedo Van der Garde (P1 Motorsport) has controlled the first part of the season perfectly. The Dutchman is not however about to take his eye off the ball. He hasn't won in three races and just like the other 25 Formula Renault 3.5 Series drivers, he'd love to go into the summer break on a high. http:///en/world_series/formulaV6/news.php?news=78251.html 27-06-2008 tcm:3-78251 A roaring success with the 110 000 strong crowd, this weekend’s British round of the World Series by Renault at Silverstone was also a resounding personal success for Maxime Martin (Boutsen Energy Racing) who carried off wins in both Eurocup Mégane Trophy races. In the championship standings, he closed the gap on Michaël Rossi (TDS) who is currently second behind Dimitri Enjalbert (Tech 1 Racing). http:///en/world_series/megane_trophy/news.php?news=76752.html 08-06-2008 tcm:3-76752 At just nineteen, Robert Wickens (Carlin Motorsport) has claimed his first victory in Formula Renault 3.5 Series thanks to a winning strategy. The Canadian finished ahead of Giedo Van der Garde, who picked up valuable championship points, and Salvador Duran (Interwetten.com Racing). http:///en/world_series/formulaV6/news.php?news=76745.html 08-06-2008 tcm:3-76745 The crowd watched with baited breath when for fifteen laps, Valtteri Bottas (Motopark Academy) and Daniel Ricciardo (SG Formula) matched each other pound for pound. In the final lap, the Australian saw his chance for victory in a truly memorable battle. In the end, Valtteri Bottas finished second in front of Andrea Caldarelli (SG Formula). http:///en/world_series/eurocup_2000/news.php?news=76738.html 08-06-2008 tcm:3-76738 In a race full of incident, poleman Maxime Martin (Boutsen Energy Racing) came out on top for the first time this season. When Michaël Rossi (TDS) ran out of fuel in the closing stages, Bernhard Ten Brinke (Equipe Verschuur) and Sébastien Dhouailly (Team Lompech Sport) took full advantage to secure their places alongside Martin on the podium. http:///en/world_series/megane_trophy/news.php?news=76731.html 07-06-2008 tcm:3-76731 Having started from pole position, Valtteri Bottas (Motopark Academy) kept his cool admirably, maintaining his lead for the duration of the race, to notch up his first race win in Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0. In contrast, second-placed Andrea Caldarelli (SG Formula) had his work cut out from start to finish to hold off Roberto Merhi (Epsilon Euskadi), Daniel Ricciardo (SG Formula) and Mathieu Arzeno (Epsilon Sport). http:///en/world_series/eurocup_2000/news.php?news=76724.html 07-06-2008 tcm:3-76724 From fifth on the grid, Salvador Duran (Interwetten.com) produced a mammoth effort to chalk up his first race win of the season. The Mexican driver was joined on the podium by two Spaniards: Marcos Martinez (Pons Racing) and Alvaro Barba (Prema Powerteam). http:///en/world_series/formulaV6/news.php?news=76707.html 07-06-2008 tcm:3-76707 Penalized for failing to slow down when the yellow flags were brought out, Dimitri Enjalbert (Tech 1 Racing) and Michaël Rossi (TDS), have been stripped of the pole positions they were initially awarded, to the benefit of Maxime Martin (Boutsen Energy Racing) and Michaël Rossi (TDS). The Belgian driver will now start from pole in both the weekend’s races. http:///en/world_series/megane_trophy/news.php?news=76702.html 07-06-2008 tcm:3-76702 In his element since the beginning of this meeting, Robert Wickens (Carlin Motorsport) has claimed his first pole position in Formula Renault 3.5 Series ahead of Giedo Van der Garde (P1 Motorsport). Van der Garde thus remains very much in contention at this meeting, unlike some of his nearest Championship rivals… http:///en/world_series/formulaV6/news.php?news=76696.html 07-06-2008 tcm:3-76696 Just as he did at Spa-Francorchamps, Valtteri Bottas (Motopark Academy) showed irresistible form in this morning’s qualifying session, winning pole position for both of the weekend’s races in comprehensive fashion. Dean Smith (Fortec Motorsport) also shone on his home patch, winning a place on the front row for race 1, while Andrea Caldarelli (SG Formula) will line up alongside Bottas in race 2. http:///en/world_series/eurocup_2000/news.php?news=76690.html 07-06-2008 tcm:3-76690 The new Méganes had their first outing at Silverstone today. In a highly competitive day of testing, each of the Eurocup Mégane Trophy's main contenders held the lead at some point. Michaël Rossi (TDS) ultimately clocked the fastest time, but Maxime Martin (Boutsen Energy Racing), Dimitri Enjalbert (Tech 1 Racing) and the rest were not far behind, and we look set for a close-fought weekend of racing. http:///en/world_series/megane_trophy/news.php?news=76672.html 06-06-2008 tcm:3-76672 After two days of collective testing, Salvador Duran (Interwetten.com Racing) clocked the best time overall, ahead of Marcos Martinez (Pons Racing) and Giedo Van der Garde (P1 Motorsport). With seventeen cars separated by less than a second, it will be a hard-fought battle for pole position! http:///en/world_series/formulaV6/news.php?news=76667.html 06-06-2008 tcm:3-76667 The dominant force in the first day of collective testing, Valtteri Bottas (Motopark Academy) confirmed his presence on the Silverstone track with an impressive lead in each of the day’s sessions. The Finnish leads Mathieu Arzeno (Epsilon Sport) and Daniel Ricciardo (SG Formula). http:///en/world_series/eurocup_2000/news.php?news=76663.html 06-06-2008 tcm:3-76663 With many of their rivals driving at Silverstone for the first time, Robert Wickens (Carlin Motorsport) and Fabio Carbone (Ultimate Signature) made their experience count on the first day of collective testing. Quick times abounded, leaving the outcome of the weekend's races hard to predict. http:///en/world_series/formulaV6/news.php?news=76640.html 05-06-2008 tcm:3-76640
