2007 FIA European Touring Car Cup - Adria, 28 Oct 07 - Page 4

JMeissner · 17 Oct 2007, 09:32 (Ref:2042476)

I would say that the SEAT's will be strong here. They have a much lighter car compared to the BMW's and from what I have heard the track will suit the SEAT's quite well.

redshoes · 20 Oct 2007, 12:28 (Ref:2045327)

Latest entry list has the following changes:
#20 Yuriy Odud will now drive a Ford Focus (ex-Hotfiel car) rather than an Audi
#23 is now Emmet O'Brien in the second Poulsen Motorsport BMW 320si

Additons:
#30 Alessandro Canali (ITA), Zerocinque Motorsport BMW 320i (S2000)
#31 Massimo Arduini (ITA), Team GPS Mercurio Honda Civic Type-R (SP)
#32 Giulio Valentini (ITA), GP Motorsport Alfa Romeo 147 (SP)

Delete the two Avtodom Racing BMW Russia cars (#28/29) and Mikhail Kozlovskiy's S1600 entry (#73)

Valker · 20 Oct 2007, 12:42 (Ref:2045342)

+ #57 Arkadi Pavloski (Aimol Racing Opel Astra) moved from SP to S2000.

redshoes · 20 Oct 2007, 12:51 (Ref:2045347)

Missed that one, although it's not a change of class. Arkadi Pavloski takes over from Veronika Shemyakina but remains in SP.

It's misprint - Pavlovskiy is in SP.

Alfa Fan · 25 Oct 2007, 20:47 (Ref:2051497)

Interesting to see him back. Wonder if its a pre-cursor to a full-time program with James next year in the BTCC?

Aunt Sally · 25 Oct 2007, 21:05 (Ref:2051510)

Yeh. That would be good.

The possiblity of two teams of Brothers racing!

Alfa Fan · 25 Oct 2007, 23:52 (Ref:2051601)

Would the other two be the Britnells?

He's certainly been away from touring cars for a while- didn't he do a bit of FIA GT, then go off racing in Russia?

Robbe · 26 Oct 2007, 11:24 (Ref:2051906)

First test on wet track, only 19 drivers out.

and Janis Horeliks fastest!

Valker · 26 Oct 2007, 11:59 (Ref:2051937)

Mörth fastest in 2nd test session:
http://mstworld.com/MSportEvent.aspx...Adria,%20Italy

Sodemo · 26 Oct 2007, 12:17 (Ref:2051949)

Why are there so many Russian (and Italian) drivers just out of interest?

Robbe · 26 Oct 2007, 12:23 (Ref:2051952)

Italian drivers are there because the event is in Italy, and it's the final weekend for their national championship.

Russian drivers are there because they have money (Petrishin, Smetsky) or see good chances to win something (Lvov, some SP drivers)

But I have no clue why so many drivers are leaving out the practise sessions.

bf1 · 26 Oct 2007, 14:37 (Ref:2052045)

Anyone know if it will be broadcast on the internet? €sport.com maybe?

Pretty spaced out don't you think?

JMeissner · 26 Oct 2007, 20:48 (Ref:2052354)

Drying conditions remember. But the field is quite spread out performance wise anyway...

Hazard · 27 Oct 2007, 10:56 (Ref:2052569)

Nykjaer fastest from O'Brien in the final (and now dry) practice session...next up is qualifying.

Hazard · 27 Oct 2007, 13:37 (Ref:2052657)

Qualifying is complete.

A Honda 1-2, with Engstrom taking pole from Moller (where'd his pace come from?).

Ceresoli's SEAT is 3rd, as the Swedish Chevrolet's of Morth and Lundgaard line-up 4th and 5th, with O'Brien's BMW 6th - starting just ahead of his old car, the mean green SEAT of Nykjaer.

Well its actually the Danish Chevrolet team from DTC, altho Mörth is Swedish but Lundgård is Danish.

I think it can be 2 interesting races tomorrow, especially race 2 with reversed grid when the winniers have to claw their way back up again. Anyone know if Eurosport will stream the races?
