ALMS - 1000Km de Road Atlanta (Petit Le Mans)

por Sérgio Carvalho

Saiu a lista para os 1000Km de Road Atlanta ou Petit Le Mans também conhecida por PLM pela ALMS, ao todo teremos 45 carros na pista e talvez algumas confirmações de ultima hora nesta semana, também é válida como rodada do LMIC (Le Mans International Cup, ou Mundial de Protótipos), que começou na rodada da LMS dos 1000Km de Silverstone, onde os pugs venceram os R15, pois o principal protótipo da casa germâmica sofreu um problema, alijando-o das primeiras posições, então esta prova deve ser o troco.

Depois de PLM, somente os 1000Km de Zuhai na China, que finaliza o LMIC deste ano, teremos 7 P1, 5 P2, 17 GT2, 1 GTH, 7 LMPC, 8 GTC na pista, entre os GT2 consta um grid expressivo, pois a Ford mandou um pelotão de carros para a etapa, outra presença é o Porsche 911 modelo híbrido que andou nas 24h do Inferno Verde e liderava quando abriu o bico e a vitória para as M3 que também devem lutar por uma vitória na classe, mas o 911 híbrido corre sozinho dentro de sua classe, mesmo assim o pessoal da fábrica deseja uma vingança particular

Nesta semana, alguns carros andaram testando em PLM, inclusive os R15 (fotos dos treinos) e trazemos um vídeo disponibilizado no site youtube.com com uma passada dos R15.

Os treinos começam na quarta-feira e entram semana adentro, e para o final de semana, o Speed Channel já confirmou que ira transmitir a prova ao vivo, e alguma parte pela web, pois há o qualy da Nascar, depois retorna para a telinha novamente...
