Bij het Hollywood aan de Rijn van Nicky Hofs is het nooit saai. De middenvelder van weleer stond in 2004 al eens aan de afgrond met zijn club, maar redde het vege lijf in de nacompetitie tegen degradatie. Met nog 14 speelrondes te gaan staat zijn Vitesse op de laatste plaats in de Eredivisie en waar hij vroeger de meubelen redde als voetballer moet hij dat nu doen als assistent-trainer. Ooit hoopt hij als hoofdtrainer voor de groep te staan en daarvoor heeft hij zich de afgelopen jaren enorm ontwikkeld. Als mens én trainer.

Dass Gert Volker Hildebrand vielfältige Einblicke in seinem Beruf als Autodesigner bekommen hat, davon konntet ihr euch ja bereits in der letzten Folge überzeugen. Heute reden wir über seine Stationen bei SEAT, warum er von der Möglichkeit, das Design der MINI-Familie zu verantworten, aus den Nachrichten erfahren hat und wie es ist, eine chinesische Automarke mit zu entwickeln.

Gert Volker Hildebrand war sicherlich häufig zu rechten Zeit am richtigen Ort, was aber auch nur funktioniert, wenn man dann auch liefert. Das hat er nicht nur einmal getan und so stammt aus seiner Feder zum Beispiel das Design des Golf 3 (mein erstes Auto), der Countryman aber auch so "gewöhnliche" Autos, wie der Dauer Porsche 962, die Straßenversion des Le Mans - Dauersiegers! Er war aber auch bei Opel, später bei SEAT und war außerdem für die MINI-Markenfamilie verantwortlich, also Clubman, Countryman, Coupé, Roadster und weil das alles noch nicht reicht, war er noch viele Jahre als Designchef in China. Es gibt vieles zu erzählen, so viel, dass ich die Folge teilen musste. Heute reden wir also in etwa über die Stationen, die Gert Volker Hildebrand bis Mitte der 90er Jahre erlebt hat.

This week's episode centres on the murky, oft overlooked and eternally understudied subject of Pre-Event and Performance Testing, an essential undertaking for any rally team seeking to make its mark in any given championship, from the Clubman level right up to the WRC. Joining us to help demystify this dense, delightfully technical subject we're delighted to once more welcome Richard Browne, the former Prodrive and current VW Motorsport engineer - and the individual who helped us debut Rally DNA way back at the start of the year. Richard was kind enough to give us almost an hour and a half of his valuable time to discuss the intricacies of test schedules, component destruction testing, the influence a driver's personality and experience can make on how a given PET plays out, and much else besides. It all makes for a fascinating insight into a world most of us will have precious little first-hand experience of and probably seldom think of, yet one that's a key component of successful rallying in the modern era.

In deze barre tijden ontvangen wij in de digitale studio van Radio Camataru een speler uit de gouden jaren van sc Heerenveen: Ronny Venema!    Presentator Hielke Biemond en sidekicks Frank Beenen en Redmer Wijnsma staan met onze laatste doelpuntenmaker in de Champions League stil bij de huidige sportieve crisis. In hoeverre bood de zesde competitienederlaag op rij – 3-1 bij PSV – perspectief op betere tijden? Wordt de hand van Ole Tobiasen zichtbaar? En de belangrijkste vraag: komt het nog goed?   In het tweede gedeelte van de uitzending staan de heren met clubman Venema stil bij zijn huidige werk in het Abe Lenstra Stadion. Sinds eind vorig jaar is hij geen accountmanager meer op de commerciële afdeling, maar haalt hij de banden met de Friese amateurclubs aan en probeert hij ook nieuwe voetbalscholen op te zetten. Wat denkt hij op die manier bij te dragen aan de toekomst van sc Heerenveen?   Zoals alle gasten ontkomt ook Venema niet aan een kijkje in zijn ziel tijdens de Tien van Redmer. We eindigen traditiegetrouw met een vooruitblik op de volgende wedstrijd, thuis tegen FC Utrecht. Dat alles en veel meer hoor je in deze nieuwe uitzending van Radio Camataru!        

2022 is SC Heerenveen vooralsnog niet erg gunstig gezind. Na het vertrek van Joey Veerman is er drie keer op rij verloren, van FC Twente, Go Ahead Eagles in de beker en zelfs van de gedoodverfde degradatiekandidaat PEC Zwolle – in het eigen Abe Lenstra Stadion nog wel. En vers van de pers, net voordat we beginnen met de opnames horen we dat trainer Johnny Jansen het veld moet ruimen… Presentator Marcel Koppers probeert samen met sidekicks Frank Beenen en Redmer Wijnsma en hulp van medesupporters Sander Eising en Jelger de Kroon de gang van zaken te duiden. Is het ontslag van clubman Jansen terecht? Wat voor perspectief staat zijn opvolger te wachten en wie zou eventueel interessante opties kunnen zijn voor sc Heerenveen? Uiteraard wordt er (weliswaar korter dan normaal) ook nog teruggeblikt op het duel met PEC Zwolle, worden er hoe dan ook weer vier spelers genomineerd voor Camataruaan van de Week en is er weer een In de Korte Hoek! Tot slot werpen we een blik op de transfermarkt, waarin Thom Haye vooralsnog het voornaamste doelwit is. En wat kunnen we eigenlijk verwachten van Bologna-huurling Sydney van Hooijdonk? Dat en nog veel meer hoor je in deze nieuwe aflevering van Radio Camataru!

To ensure you don't miss any #TimelessClassic episodes, please subscribe wherever you listen to your podcasts. In our seventh episode Gordon May, Royal Enfield Historian and Overland Traveler, and our host for this episode speaks with three riders from South Africa who have had numerous adventures and fascinating experiences on their Classic motorcycles. Joining him in this episode are Fred Strydom - Based out of Mossel Bay, Fred rides a 2016 Classic 500 Chrome which he has personalized with a few custom bits and affectionately named it Brumby after Elyne Mitchell's novel The Silver Brumby. Some of the bits he's added on the motorcycle range from a custom exhaust, Clubman handlebars, Metzler Tourance tyres and a self-made headlight grill besides tons of handcrafted leather accessories which add to the classic appeal of the motorcycle. In his twenty years of riding, he's had five different motorcycles and always found them feeling like machines till he laid his hands on the Classic and discovered that this motorcycle had a 'personality. He finds his Classic closer to a living animal demanding attention and endlessly generous with what it has to give. He strongly believes that once that bond is forged between the Classic and its rider, it's next to impossible to break it Lesley-Ann Green - Lesley has had have had several bikes but loves her Classic 500 as she finds it something very different from the other machines she has ever seen. And to boot, she has 2 Classics which she says is described as a touch of madness coined by her fellow biking friends. Many of her motorcycle adventure moments have been around her Royal Enfield Classic, moments of unadulterated joy as she calls them. She remembers showing up at the South African touring company RETZA in her pink skirt, blue denim, and adventure riding boots to check out the motorcycle which became her 2nd Classic 500 . Her first one was a maroon-chrome Classic 500 and she added another Black to her kitty. Keith Robbertze - A resident of Cape Town, South Africa, Keith rides a black Classic 500 black adorned with some custom detailing. He is not new to the world of Royal Enfield and has had great adventures on his Bullet earlier, riding around the countryside in Swartberg along with his other biker friends on adventure bikes. For him, a ride up any difficult hill to climb on top and admire the view around is much like a million dollars. His enthusiasm is so inspiring that recently his son also bought himself a Royal Enfield Classic 500 so that both of them can ride together. There's no stopping Keith when he gets started with stories about his customized Classic and his numerous adventures on the motorcycle as evident in this podcast too.

Sue Stockdale talks to Terry Scannell, a volunteer Motorsport UK race official who is the Permanent Clerk of Course for the Sports 2000 Championship. Terry explains what it's like being in Race Control and having overall responsibility for the general conduct and control of a race event, and how he deals when unexpected situations like a change of weather, which can make life a little trickier for everyone involved. Terry Scannell began marshalling on track as a Flag / Incident Marshal in 1969 and went on to assist Steve Bradley with running Karts in 1972 and Mark Dunham in Formula Ford 1600; then from 1973 running a fleet of Van Diemen Formula Fords, F2000 and a Lotus 69 F2 Chassis in Formula Atlantic. Over the years he has worked with other race teams, including assisting Colin Thorpe to run Ralt RT1, Argo JM6, Chevron B34, B38, B47 and March 773 F3 cars in the British F3 Vandervell Championship and European F3 Championships, and other F3 and F2 cars in the Monoposto Championship, winning this Championship outright in 1982 and 1984. He has concentrated for the last 20 years being a volunteer Motorsport UK Clerk of Course working with clubs such as MSVR, HSCC, CSCC, BRSCC and MGCC, and is currently Permanent Clerk of Course for Sports 2000, Clubman's Sports Prototypes, Monoposto Championship, Teideman Championship and F3 Cup.About Sports 2000: The Sports2000 Championship has been established since 1977 and features three championships - Duratecs, Pintos and Historic Pintos. Over the years several of the drivers have gone on to compete in British Touring Cars, Le Mans, F1 and other international series.

At the end of the day, they're our customers from the point of view of the club organizing the meeting”.‘When I was 14, I started marshalling at Snetterton as a flag marshal/Incident marshal which you could in those days at that age. There were no such things as safety cars, red flags and if there was an incident, we jumped down off the bank and dealt with it right in the middle of the actual race.'‘It's basically very similar to the race director role in F1. You're having to make decisions based on what you're seeing happen, dealing with sudden changes of circumstance.'‘I'm not one of those Clerks of the Course that locks myself in a dark room all day and never talks to drivers unless I'm printing out a judicial form with a penalty. What I really enjoy is the part of getting out in the paddock.'‘I do find is one that helps to build a degree of respect between the competitors and the Clerks in that we actually try to understand their situation.'‘We want to get the right answers for all the drivers concerned and make sure that everybody gets their full enjoyment of the meeting in the right manner.'Support for this podcast comes from Broad Town Brewery – the microbrewery in Wiltshire with big ambitions. www.broadtownbrewery.co.uk Sound Editor: Matias De EzcurraProducer: Sue Stockdale

Very oddly shaped show for you guys this week. Todd took the helm 100% this week, with Chad and AJ. Skipping news this week, they spent some time talking about driving MINIs, fast, in a controlled environment. AJ was on the west coast at the BMW Driving Center in Palm Springs, Todd did a Miles Ahead event in Kansas City and Chad even took the DT Mule out for some track time.

Episode 105-There's no way that's attached... Cars inspire judgements. Sometimes they're quick, and you pay a compliment that isn't well received.

Lucía Castellano Vega and Inés Mongil Echandi is the team of directors behind the lovely short doc., Clubman 13.3.13. The piece trails one man whose work ethic, dignity, and elegance reveals itself by his own words and actions. For over sixty-years, this man devoted himself to men’s wear. His sense of honor and duty reflected. The story is so simple it feels like a caress, a gesture. What gets us up each day? How come we live and for what? What is our purpose? How does time change and alter what we do and focus on? What happens when circumstances change and we must take a different course? Clubman 13.3.13 addresses these themes. A poetic story about lifelong commitments but also about a changing labor market and workforce. The protagonist holds to his work ethic because he knows only it, will save him. As long as he has his will to live there is always something to do. Inés and I talk life, finding stories, elegance, and dignity. #clubman13313 #clubman #santurce #shortdoc #womendirectors #work #menswear

Mercedes GLC Si guida come una Classe C, ma fuoristrada non tradisce la regola della “G”. Tanta tecnologia al servizio di comfort e sicurezza ed addirittura un “concierge” personale per risolvere ogni problema...questo e molto altro è l’ultima frontiera per Mercedes ed il suo nuovo SUV compatto non fa differenza. Lancia Ypsilon Si rinnova nell’immagine esterna, negli interni e nell’infotainment. La “più amata” dalle italiane è sempre lei, da quel lontano 1985… Formula 1 In Formula 1 molte cose stanno cambiando velocemente e il 2016 potrebbe vedere dei mutamenti epocali sotto diversi punti di vista. Campionato Italiano Rally Al Rally di Roma Capitale si impone Scandola su Skoda battendo al fotofinish la Ford di Basso. Con il 3° posto di Andreucci Peugeot è ad un passo dal titolo tricolore costruttori. E a seguire le News di Autolink MINI Clubman L’unica cosa che rimane sono le caratteristiche Split Door che si aprono su un ampio un vano bagagli che può ora variare dai 360 ai 1.250 litri. E’ la nuova MINI Clubman che cresce in dimensioni, abitabilità e comfort. Abbandonata la soluzione della porta posteriore asimmetrica con apertura controvento in favore di una soluzione con le classiche 5 porte, la terza generazione (seconda dell’era BMW) di Clubman diventa quindi una vera e propria wagon senza perdere però le caratteristiche di handling e piacere di guida tipiche di MINI. E’ già ordinabile con prezzi che vanno dai 24.800 della Cooper 3 cilindri in allestimento base, ai 31.600 della sportivissima Cooper S da 192 cavalli top di gamma. Non manca una versione Cooper D disponibile anche in allestimento business con cambio automatico. Collezione Automobili Lamborghini Riproporre il DNA delle sue inconfondibili supercar in una linea di abbigliamento che comprende capi casual e sportivi, ma anche classici e rigorosi: è questo il tema sviluppato dalla nuova Collezione Automobili Lamborghini. Tutti i capi sono accomunati da grande qualità, materiali innovativi e design dalla forte personalità. Audi A4 Dopo il debutto all’IAA, la 9ª generazione dell’Audi A4 (berlina e Avant) è già in prevendita con prezzi a partire da 33.800 Euro, in consegna da novembre. La nuova A4 è stata totalmente riprogettata. È più leggera fino a 110 kg, più aerodinamica con Cx pari a 0,23, più potente del 25%, più parca nei consumi del 21% e più spaziosa, e si presenta con un corredo tecnologico degno dell’ammiraglia A8. Sono fino a 30 i sistemi di assistenza alla guida, 7 i motori al lancio, 4 gli assetti disponibili per un’offerta aggiornata nel segno dell’innovazione continua. Tra i nuovi motori 4 e 6 cilindri spicca l’eccellente 2.0 TDI ultra da 150 CV che emette soltanto 95 g/km di CO2. La nuova generazione di A4 è più silenziosa e spaziosa (+24 mm per la testa davanti, +23 mm per le gambe dietro; 480 litri il bagagliaio) e presenta dotazioni di serie al top in termini di sicurezza e comfort. Ford F150 Super Duty Si rinnova il maxi pick up F-450 Super Duty, un autentico best seller negli Stati Uniti.

Hyundai and Kia are being sued for patent infringement with their hybrid technology in the Sonata and the Optima. MINI is showing off a utility version of the Clubman called the Clubvan before it premieres next month at the Geneva Motor Show. February car sales in the U.S. are expected to be near 1.1 million units which translates to a SAAR of 14.3 million units. All that and more, plus a look at a sports car that’s coming out of Mexico called the Mastretta MXT.

MINI: 10 anni di successi MINI ha festeggiato con una mostra alla presenza di vip e stampa alla Triennale di Milano il decennale della nuova MINI by BMW Group. Due lustri durante i quali la nuova era MINI ha saputo rinverdire i fasti di quella ideata da Sir Alec Issigonis che negli anni sessanta divenne un’autentica icona del mondo automobilistico, ma anche delle tendenze modaiole. Il Gruppo BMW ha saputo cogliere l’attimo e ha deciso che l’inizio del nuovo millennio rappresentava il momento ideale per rilanciare il brand britannico. Ma l’idea del ritorno MINI risale alla seconda metà degli anni novanta, subito dopo che BMW rilevò il Gruppo Rover, all’epoca proprietario del marchio inglese. I progetti, creati da Frank Stephenson, furono affidati al designer Gert Volker Hildebrand, il vero papà della MINI del terzo millennio. Gli appassionati non avrebbero accettato una rivoluzione totale, fu quindi consequenziale il ricorso alle forme della vettura del passato, ovviamente interpretate in maniera moderna. La prima MINI della nuova era fu presentata in anteprima al Salone di Parigi dell’autunno 2000 e l’entusiasmo con il quale venne accolta da pubblico e critica convinse BMW che era arrivato il momento tanto atteso del lancio nei concessionari. La MINI era motorizzata con un 4 cilindri benzina di 1,6 litri da 90 CV per la One e da 115 CV per la Cooper. Il 2002 è l’anno del debutto della pepata Cooper S da 163 CV e due anni dopo esordisce l’inevitabile versione a gasolio, la One D con motore 1.4 da 75 CV a consolidare i già ottimi risultati di vendita. Il 2004 segna anche il debutto della Cabrio con tetto elettrico in tela e gamma motoristica della Hatchback ad esclusione del diesel. Le prime supersportive targate John Cooper Works da 200 CV risalgono al 2005, un anno prima dell’introduzione della seconda generazione, serie che presenta inediti motori 4 cilindri. Nel 2007 è la volta della versione a carrozzeria allungata Clubman dotata di una singola porticina con apertura controvento sul lato passeggero. Lo studio Crossover Concept anticipa poi le linee del 4° modello di gamma, la Countryman, prima 4 porte MINI e prima a superare i 4 metri di lunghezza, oltre a risultare la prima MINI con trazione integrale ALL4 (optional). E veniamo ai giorni nostri con la più potente variante diesel targata SD e con l’imminente lancio della prima MINI Coupé due posti secchi (esordio l’1-2 ottobre) ad esaltare ancor di più il celebre go-kart feeling della Casa. Dieci anni di successi testimoniati dai 2 milioni di esemplari prodotti ad Oxford e da una serie di partnership nel campo del design, del cinema e della moda. Se nel 2001 il claim del rilancio MINI recitava “Is it Love?”, oggi a quella domanda possiamo rispondere “Yes!”. MINI ha attecchito anche in Italia, terzo mercato europeo e quinto al mondo per volumi di vendita (più di 200 mila unità). Ma la storia MINI non si ferma e fervono già i preparativi per il debutto delle novità 2012 Roadster e Paceman.

MINI Cooper SD È la MINI Diesel più potente e forse anche la più divertente da guidare. La nuova Cooper SD offre prestazioni da vera sportiva accompagnate da un’erogazione di potenza davvero travolgente. Ha una coppia massima addirittura superiore a quella della bomba Cooper S John Cooper Works. La guida di MINI Cooper SD risulta così sempre gratificante e trova la sua sublimazione sui percorsi misti, dove, a prescindere che ci si trovi al volante di una Hatchback, di una Cabrio, di una Clubman o di una Countryman, fa valere la sua erogazione inesauribile abbinata in un mix travolgente alle consuete doti di agilità che hanno reso celebre MINI. MINI SD rappresenta l’ultima evoluzione della specie MINI Diesel e ne rappresenta il top per prestazioni e piacere di guida. Acceso il motore ed inserita la marcia non si può non restare colpiti: una sinfonia di emozioni ed una piacevolissima sonorità di scarico appena percettibile, avvolge il guidatore come la sinfonia musicale dal titolo “Tre suoni in movimento” composta dai musicisti Vince Pastano e Antonello d’Urso di Fonoprint che trae ispirazione dal suono pieno ed ovattato del quattro cilindri SD e del resto della apprezzatissima gamma diesel. Una gamma di sonorità e di prestazioni tra cui scegliere. Questo per quanto riguarda l’acustica. A tutti gli altri sensi ci pensa il classico go-kart feeling e la generosità di MINI.

Mini Restyling Dopo aver già rivisto la scorsa primavera i motori a benzina, MINI rinnova ulteriormente la gamma composta dalle versioni berlina tre porte hatchback, Clubman e Cabrio con due propulsori a gasolio totalmente nuovi. Si tratta dei 4 cilindri turbodiesel di 1,6 litri common rail da 90 CV per la One D e da 112 CV per la Cooper D. Entrambi vantano consumi ed emissioni di CO2 da record: rispettivamente 3,8 litri/100 nel ciclo misto e 99 g/km. La massima efficienza ecologica dei diesel non inficia le prestazioni, tanto che la Cooper D arriva a sfiorare i 200 km/h di velocità massima. Le novità già apportate sulla gamma benzina hanno riguardato l’introduzione delle versioni cosiddette “Minimalism” che si articolano sulla One da 75 e 98 CV. L’offerta è completata dalla Cooper da 122 CV, dalla Cooper S da 184 CV e dall’immancabile supersportiva John Cooper Works da 211 CV.Il lancio commerciale della rinnovata famiglia MINI è previsto per il prossimo 18 settembre. I prezzi della hatchback sono compresi tra 17.200 e 29.950 Euro, quelli della Clubman tra 20.150 e 31.950 Euro e quelli della Cabrio tra 22.450 e 33.750 Euro. Altra importante novità è il debutto della motorizzazione diesel sulla MINI Cabrio con la Cooper D da 112 CV. Per sottolinearne un carattere ancor più spiccatamente sportivo, il Gruppo BMW è intervenuto nella sezione più bassa della minigonna anteriore, mentre le cornici delle luci di posizione e dei fendinebbia presentano una forma tridimensionale più modellata. Il paraurti posteriore della Cooper S Clubman presenta ora un’apertura più generosa tra i due terminali di scarico che riprende la forma delle prese d’aria.Con l’obiettivo di incrementare il comfort e la sicurezza, oltre al fascino tipico e senza tempo della gamma, la famiglia è offerta con numerosi equipaggiamenti innovativi. Per la prima volta, MINI è disponibile (a richiesta) con l’Adaptive Light Control, sistema che consente un’illuminazione della carreggiata a seguire l’andamento della curva. Venduta in oltre 1,7 milioni di esemplari dal 2001, la famiglia MINI si arricchirà a breve con Countryman, il suo primo crossover (anche a trazione integrale). In attesa delle versioni Coupé e Roadster.
