How Lando nailed one-stop strategy, Ferrari's mixed weekend + Bortoleto's personal best - 2025 Hungarian GP Review

Nine-time Le Mans winner, Tom Kristensen, and Fox Sports Mexico journalist, Diego Mejia, join Tom Clarkson in the Budapest paddock to dissect a thrilling strategy battle at the Hungarian Grand Prix. After losing two places at the start, how did Lando Norris make the one-stop strategy work to take his fifth victory of the season? What did the guys make of Oscar's late lunge into turn 1 on the penultimate lap? Lando joins the pod briefly to share whether he did anything in the car to avoid contact with Oscar. And with just nine points separating the McLaren teammates with 10 races left, who's the momentum with going into the summer break? Charles Leclerc took a shock pole position on Saturday, so why did he end up finishing off the podium after leading from the start? Did Ferrari get his strategy wrong? And after Lewis Hamilton described himself as ‘absolutely useless' following another disappointing qualifying session, where does the seven-time World Champion go from here?  George Russell secured his sixth podium of the season and his first since winning in Canada. Why were Mercedes quicker in Hungary after a difficult European leg of the season? And how will the news that Max Verstappen is staying at Red Bull in 2026 help Russell and Kimi Antonelli going forward? Also on the agenda: Gabriel Bortoleto's career-best finish in P6, Aston Martin's incredible turnaround from Spa and a disappointing weekend for Red Bull.

Published in The New Yorker January 7th 1966. The Story of Ferrari by Stuart Codling Enzo Ferrari: Power, Politics and the Making of an Automobile Empire  by Luca Dal Monte Enzo Ferrari: The Man and the Machine by Brock Yates Go Like Hell: Ford, Ferrari, and Their Battle for Speed and Glory at Le Mans by A.J. Baime Selected highlights:  1. He who travels fast, carries little. 2. All masterpieces bespeaks the character of its creator 3. "When the driver steps on the gas I want him to shit his pants." 4. It is obvious that a Ferrari is the product of a sort of automotive watch-maker. 5. Ferrari has never taken a vacation in his life. 6. Racing is a profession for men who do not wish to die in bed.  7. If there was one essential quality about the man it was his ironbound tenacity, his fierce devotion to the single cause of winning automobile races with cars bearing his name. From 1930 onward, for nearly sixty years, hardly a day passed when this thought was not foremost in his mind. Win or lose, he unfailingly answered the bell. In that sense his devotion to his own self-described mission was without precedent. For that alone he towered over his peers. 8. “I was back where I had started. No money, no experience, limited education. All I had was a passion to get somewhere.” 9. Ferrari had two fundamental talents. He was an agitator of men and he was an absolute marketing genius.  10. "A Ferrari must be desired. It cannot and must not be perceived as something that is immediately available; otherwise, the dream is gone." 11. "I have never considered myself a designer or an inventor, but only one who gets things moving and keeps them running. My innate talent was for stirring up men." 12. Enzo Ferrari was the consummate manager of men— not docile, soft men, but proud, fiercely competitive, egocentric men.  13. He was a pathological competitor. A man with a diamond-hard will to win at all costs. 14. When asked how he wanted to be remembered, he replied: "As someone who dreamt of becoming Ferrari." 15. Ferrari was animated by an extraordinary passion that led him to build a product with no equal. 16. "I had the stubborn determination to capture the trust of those who work with me."  17. “I should not have married because a man dominated by a passion such as mine, can hardly divide himself in half and be a good husband. If I had listened to my wife, I would have been a clerk in a bus company.” 18. He understood that showmanship is salesmanship.  19. They were cars built by Italian artisans, every detail down to the steering wheel handcrafted using some of the same methods used to make Roman suits of armor and the royal carriages of the ancient kingdoms. 20. When asked about the root of his mania, his obsession with victory, Ferrari said, "Everything that I've  done, I did because I couldn't do anything less. One day I want to build a car that's faster than all of them, and then I want to die."

Hemos hecho vídeos de la historia de muchas marcas… pero nos faltaba nada menos que Audi. La historia de esta marca es larga y complicada así que la voy a hacer “a mi manera”, contando brevemente cómo nació la marca y repasando los 10 coches que a mí me parecen claves en su historia… a ver qué os parece la idea. Aunque la historia de Audi se puede remontar a 1899 cuando nace la marca Horch, semilla de la actual empresa, la Audi moderna nace en realidad en 1965 cuando pasa a formar parte del Grupo VAG o Volkswagen AG. En el vídeo damos un repaso a los años que van de 1899 a 1965. Aquí vamos con el listado de coches. 100 coupé C1 (1969). ¿El primer Audi Premium? Podría estar en esta lista el 100 berlina, que ya contaba con muchas de las cualidades de este coupé, pero es que esta marca desde el principio ha cuidado los modelos deportivos y coupés, esos que la han ayudado a tener la imagen de marca tan buena que ahora tiene… y esos que esta, lamentablemente, abandonando. Quattro (1980). Y todo fue diferente. Clave, porque su enorme éxito en competición, el hecho de cambiar por completo la tecnología en el mundo de los rallyes, y sus éxitos pusieron a la marca en primera fila como marca tecnológica y capaz de hacer coches muy sofisticados y eficaces… y como decía, fue el comienzo de la tecnología “Quattro”, con distintas tecnologías, hasta el día de hoy. 100 C3 (1982). Aerodinámica e inyección directa. Este 100 fue probablemente el primer coche de serie que llevaba los cristales enrasados con la carrocería, uno de los motivos de que su CX se situase en el 0,30, muy notable en su momento. Luego en 1989 llegó el motor turbodiésel de 2,5 litros con inyección directa, los famosos, para bien y para mal, TDi… recordad el “dieselgate”. A8 (1994). Chasis de aluminio y tracción total. En 1994 ni BMW ni Mercedes ofrecían una buena tracción total y una carrocería de aluminio para compensar el sobre peso de la tracción “Quattro”. Este modelo asestó un duro golpe de imagen a su competencia. RS2 Avant (1994). Con la ayuda de Porsche. Este break, o Avant como los llama Audi, era y es un verdadero devorador de las autopistas de velocidad libre en Alemania. Porsche ayudó en la puesta a punto del motor y del bastidor. El motor era un 5 cilindros de 2.226 cm3, 20 válvulas y un gran turbocompresor de forma que se alcanzaban los 315 CV. A3 (1998). Crecer por abajo. Este coche me parecía un Golf disfrazado de Audi y cuando lo probé me di cuenta de que no, era una declaración de intención es de Audi de que podía crecer hacia abajo, pero proponiendo coches con todo el ADN de Audi. Y ese A3 durante sus ya 4 generaciones, lo ha conseguido... TT (1998). ¡Te echamos de menos! Echo de menos al TT doblemente. Primero, porque tuve un TTS de la segunda generación con motor 2.0 TFSi de 272 CV y un excepcional cambio de doble embrague de 6 marchas… le echo de menos. Y todos le echaremos de menos porque ha dejado de fabricarse. R8 LMP (2000). ¡Cinco victorias en Le Mans! Este modelo fue el comienzo. En este momento Audi es la segunda marca con más victorias en las 24 horas de Le Mans, con 12+1, detrás de Porsche con 19. Y todo comenzó con este espectacular coche. RS4 B7 (2005). Lobo con piel de cordero. Y es que este coche, ya sea en berlina o Avant, parece un inocente coche familiar. Pero en su interior se esconde un motor de 4,2 litros y 420 CV combinado con la tracción total tipo Quattro. Se puede decir que Audi con este coche se reafirmó como constructor de coche de estética “inocente”, prácticos y con prestaciones de auténtico deportivo. R8 (2006). ¡Tiembla Ferrari! En realidad, este Audi seguía más el camino que abrió el Honda NSX que la gama Ferrari. Porque era un coupé de altas prestaciones, pero al mismo tiempo muy utilizable en el día a día, incluso confortable y amable. A esa “amabilidad” de su comportamiento colaboraba la tracción total. He probado estos coches en carretera y a fondo en circuito, en 2015, nada menos que Montmeló la versión V10 Plus de 610 CV… y me sorprende los “fácil” que resulta un coche de este nivel. Otro modelo que Audi ya ha dejado de fabricar… ya les diría a los “chicos” de Audi, ¿estáis seguros de lo que hacéis? Conclusión. Sinceramente a Audi le costó mucho esfuerzo ponerse a la par de las otras marcas Premium alemanas como BMW y Mercedes. Y lo consiguió a base de hacer buenos coches, de ser muy dinámicos presentando nuevos modelos de forma incesante y estando presente con modelos que son verdaderos “motores de imagen” para la marca. En cambio, últimamente, han estado un poco despistados o no han tenido mucho acierto. Su apuesta “a muerte” por los eléctricos, de Audi y de prácticamente todo el grupo VAG, casi ignorando a los híbridos, se ha mostrado todo un error.

¡Bienvenidos a un nuevo episodio de Desde el Paddock! Esta semana tenemos como invitado a una figura histórica del automovilismo mexicano: Luis “Chapulín” Díaz, piloto que abrió camino en las categorías estadounidenses, marcó época en resistencia y dejó huella en Le Mans. Desde sus inicios en el karting con Memo Rojas hasta sus años dorados en American Le Mans Series, repasamos su trayectoria completa, incluyendo la creación de Escudería Telmex y el intento por llegar a la Formula 1 a través de la Formula 3000.Durante la conversación abordamos por qué su generación creció apuntando hacia IndyCar y no hacia Europa, cómo fue su paso por Grand-Am e IMSA, y por qué 2009 con Fernández Racing marcó su cima profesional. También nos narra su experiencia en las 24 Horas de Le Mans y su visión actual como piloto de simulador, reflexionando sobre sus ventajas, sus límites y su valor real como herramienta formativa para los pilotos del futuro.Además, agradecemos a todos los que participaron en la dinámica de Aeroméxico Rewards. Recibimos cientos de respuestas y pronto los ganadores estarán recibiendo un correo con toda la información para acceder a su premio.

Su salida ocurre en medio de tensiones internas, fuga de talento técnico y una incapacidad de generar un segundo auto competitivo. La llegada de Laurent Mekies como nuevo Team Principal abre una nueva etapa: ingeniero de formación, con experiencia en la FIA y Ferrari, ahora tendrá la tarea de recuperar la cohesión del equipo, mantener a Max Verstappen a bordo y resolver problemas técnicos urgentes.El futuro de Verstappen vuelve al centro del debate. ¿Está su permanencia ligada a la salida de Horner o esta fue consecuencia del desgaste con su entorno? La supuesta reunión en Cerdeña entre Toto Wolff y Max ha alimentado todo tipo de especulaciones. ¿Qué haría cualquiera en su lugar: quedarse en Red Bull o abrir un nuevo capítulo?En Formula E, la doble fecha de Berlín dejó una victoria para Jaguar con Mitch Evans bajo lluvia y otra para Nick Cassidy con remontada desde el fondo. Sin embargo, la gran historia fue la coronación anticipada de Oliver Rowland como campeón de la temporada 2025 con Nissan. La consistencia y el control de carrera le bastaron para sellar el título con dos rondas aún por disputarse.En NASCAR, Shane van Gisbergen volvió a imponer su ley en circuitos mixtos. Ganó en Sonoma liderando 97 de 110 vueltas, sumando su tercera victoria del año y confirmando su estatus como el nuevo referente en este tipo de trazados. Chase Briscoe y Chase Elliott completaron el podio, en una carrera marcada por la estrategia en los pits, múltiples banderas amarillas y un In-Season Challenge que sigue elevando la tensión entre pilotos en busca de puntos clave.

He was made bishop by the Apostle Peter and sent to Gaul as a missionary. Some believe that he was Simon the Leper, whom the Lord healed, later named Julian in Baptism. In Gaul, despite great difficulty and privation, he converted many to faith in Christ and worked many miracles — healing the sick, driving out demons, and even raising the dead. In time the local prince, Defenson, was baptised along with many of his subjects. He reposed in peace.

Los coches del GR 5 "Silueta"… ¡Excesivos! ¡Brutales!

¡Como me gusta este podcast! ¡Como me gustan estos coches! Excesivos, brutales… sencillamente son, para mí, los coches de competición en circuito más espectaculares de la historia. Fruto de un reglamento poco restrictivo… no como los de ahora… Si conoces los “Silueta” te va a interesar mucho este video, pero si nos los conoces… ¡te va a interesar más! Te lo prometo. Lo primero que hay que hacer, porque quizás alguno no lo sepa, es responder a esta pregunta: ¿Qué es un coche “silueta”? Lo primero que hay que decir es que los “silueta” son coches del entonces llamado Grupo 5, pero no todos los grupo 5 son coches de la categoría “silueta”. Los Grupo 5 nacieron en 1966 e inicialmente eran coches nacidos para la competición. Te pongo algunos ejemplos: Alfa Romeo TT33TT/12, Alpine Renault A442, Ford GT40, Ferrari 512 M/S, Matra Simca MS670 o Porsche 917 por citar unos ejemplos… coches preciosos y que, seguro, merecen otro video para ellos. Pero en 1976 y hasta 1982, época de mi adolescencia y juventud, nace la cuarta y última generación del Grupo 5 y estos son los “silueta”. La FIA creó esta categoría para coches derivados de la calle, pero ampliamente, yo diría que muy ampliamente, modificados. La federación exigía que el capó, parabrisas, puertas completas y techo fueran los mismos que en el coche original. Pero lo demás, incluidos los pasos de rueda y la parte posterior era libre. El motor debía contar con el bloque motor original y en la posición original. Es decir, no podías hacer un 911 con motor delantero, pero sí ponerlo más bajo o más adelantado y prepararlo a fondo, incluso aumentando la cilindrada o añadiendo “turbos” a placer siempre que el bloque fuese original. Lo mismo sucedía con la suspensión, debía ser de igual sistema, pero de diseño y componentes libres. Había exigencias en cuanto a normas de seguridad, pesos mínimos y dimensiones, pero en general las normas eran muy “laxas” y ello dio lugar a verdaderos monstruos de la competición… ¿Qué no te lo crees? Vamos a ver unos cuantos… 1. BMW 3.0 CSL (1972). Uno de los primeros trabajos del departamento M fue la fabricación de un coupé de la serie E9 para ser preparado para competición. 2. Lancia Stratos Turbo (1976). Terminada su etapa en los Rallyes el Stratos tuvo una segunda oportunidad en los circuitos de la mano del reglamento de los silueta… pero no tan exitosa. 3. Chevrolet Corvette Greenwood (1976). He elegido de este modelo la versión denominada “Spirit of Le Mans 1976”. Este coche, como un Ferrari que veremos más adelante, participaba dentro de una categoría de la norteamericana IMSA. 4. Porsche 911-935 (1976). Uno de los “silueta” por excelencia. Y en el caso concreto del 911-935 de nominado “Moby Dick” probablemente el más brutal de todos y al que dedicamos un video completo titulado “Moby Dick: el Porsche Turbo más brutal” que te animo a que lo veas. 5. BMW 320i Turbo (1977). El CSL era demasiado grande y demasiado antiguo así que BMW pensó en un más manejable serie 3, pero eso sí, con turbo y una potencia que según algunas fuentes llegaron a los 900 CV… 6. Ferrari 512 BB LM (1977). Este coche corrió Le Mans encuadrado en la categoría norteamericana IMSA… que fue prohibida en esta prueba en 1983. 7. Toyota Celica LB Turbo (1977). El apoyo de Toyota Alemania al preparador, muy prestigioso, Schnitzer, hizo posible que naciese este modelo que declaraba 560 CV para un peso claramente por debajo de los 900 kg. 8. Ford Capri Turbo Zakspeed (1978). Ford quiso competir en la categoría “hasta 2 litros” del Grupo 5 “siluetas” y para ello encargó al prestigiosos preparados Zakspeed un motor de 1.4 litros para montar en un espectacular y aerodinámico Ford Capri. 9. Lancia Beta Montecarlo Turbo (1979). Lancia tenía una base excelente, como era el coupé Montecarlo con dos plazas y motor central, para crear un silueta destinada al Grupo 5 de la FIA. 10. Mazda RX-7 252i (1979). El grupo 5 “Silueta” tuvo continuidad en Japón una vez acabada su vida en Europa, en el Campeonado del Mundo FIA. Y hubo muchos coches japoneses preparados bajo este reglamento. Conclusión. Siempre digo lo mismo: Los reglamentos actuales son tan estrictos y tan detallados que dejan poco a la imaginación… antes no era así y eso producía coches como estos, como los Grupo B, como los prototipos y Formula 1 de los años 70 y 80.

No hay duda: El Renault 5 es un mito. Y a ello ha colaborado su estética muy innovadora en su momento, su fiabilidad, su confort… y sus éxitos en competición. En particular en los rallyes, donde sus modelos de dos ruedas delanteras motrices ya destacaron, pero con la llegada del Turbo, llegaron victorias y títulos. #coches #renault #motorsport Renault, en mi opinión, ha hecho bien dos cosas, con el R5 y en general. Apostar por la competición para mejorar sus productos y su imagen. Y elegir pilotos no solo muy competentes, sino, además, muy carismáticos. Es este caso hay que destacar a Bruno Saby, Guy Fréquelin, especialmente al malabarista Jean Ragnotti, y a nuestro Carlos Sainz. Todos ellos brillaron a los mandos de diversos R5. Antes de entrar a hablar del “curriculum” del R5 en los rallyes, ya sabéis que Renault ha reeditado este modelo en versión eléctrica… os adelanto que lo probaremos a fondo durante un mes y os contaremos nuestras sensaciones y conclusiones. Conviértete en miembro de este canal para disfrutar de ventajas: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBG3pvXhocK7_GjeIx2sUeg/join El R5 aparece en 1972 y se puede decir que su éxito es inmediato. En Francia se puede decir que arrollador, pues entre 1974 y 1983 fue el coche más vendido… increíble. A pesar de la modestia de su mecánica inicial, a pesar de no ser en realidad más que un R-4 con una bonita carrocería obra de Michel Boué, desde siempre el R5 quiso tener una cierta vocación deportiva. No olvidemos que en esos años Renault a finales de los 70, Renault vence en Le Mans, lo hemos contado recientemente en el video titulado “Renault gana a Porsche … y tu coche lleva turbo”, y apostaba por la F1… Pero tanto los prototipos de Le Mans como la F1 se disputan con coches cuya estética queda lejos de los coches de calles que el cliente puede comprar. En cambio, en los Rallyes se corre con coches que los espectadores pueden identificar con el suyo o que el que pueden comprar… Y Renault decide competir también en rallyes. En 1977 participan en el San Remo con el R5 Alpine, aún sin turbo, donde obtienen un prometedor séptimo puesto… y deciden acudir la primer rallyes de 1978: El Montecarlo. En esa edición del rallye de Montecarlo el equipo Fiat y Lancia presentaba una armada potentísima. Frente a toda esa escuadra italiana se oponía el Porche 911 de Jean-Pierre Nicolás, que era del equipo privado de los hermanos Almeras y los dos Renault 5 oficiales, de apenas unos 130 CV, pilotados por Guy Fréquelin y Jean Ragnotti. Esperaba un duelo entre Fiat y Lancia cuando de repente que encontré con un amigo mío que no sé cómo se había enterado y me dijo: Los R5 van segundo y tercero en el Montecarlo… honestamente no me lo creí. ¡Bendita nieve! Porque ese año nevó mucho en Montecarlo y sobre la nieve a los Fiat 131 les faltaba motricidad, ya sabéis motor delantero y propulsión trasera, y a los Lancia Stratos les sobraban caballos y “mal carácter” … conducir un Stratos sobre la nieve debe ser algo mucho más que complicado. Por fin, en 1981, con el implacable Jean Ragnotti a sus mandos, el R5, en su variante Turbo de motor central, consigue su primera victoria.A pesar del Grupo B, a pesar del Audi Quattro, a pesar de toda una oleada de modelos del Grupo B, sobre todo el Peugeot 205 Turo 16, la mayoría con tracción total, el R5 consigue en su terreno predilecto, el asfalto del Tour de Corse, y con su piloto predilecto, Jean Ragnotti, vencer las ediciones de 1982 y de 1985. Se suele olvidar que la última victoria del R5 en el Mundial de rallyes no fue en el Tour de Corse, sino en la edición de 1986 del Rallye de Portugal… fatídica edición. El piloto portugués Joaquim Santos se salió del tramo con su Ford RS200 arrollando a una multitud de espectadores con un terrible resultado: Tres fallecidos. La retirada de muchos equipos, en señal de duelo, propicio la victoria de otro piloto portugués, Joaquim Moutinho al volante de un R5 Turbo privado.

Why This Episode Is a Must-Listen Are classic cars just vintage machines, or rolling works of art? And are they a smart investment for the future? In "Classic Car Restorations: Reviving Automotive Legends," the Inspired Money panel explores how restoring classic cars is about passion, heritage, and innovation. Whether you're an investor, enthusiast, or simply curious about the intersection of culture and craftsmanship, this episode delivers powerful insights that will change the way you see collectible cars. Meet the Expert Panelists Matt DeLorenzo is a veteran automotive journalist and author with over 40 years of experience, having served as editor-in-chief at Road & Track and Autoweek, and as a senior editor at Automotive News and Kelley Blue Book. A founding juror of the North American Car of the Year awards, he has authored multiple books on iconic American vehicles, from the Corvette to the Dodge brand legacy.

William Heynes shared how true restoration is “about building the car for what it deserves,” not just tailoring it to the owner's preferences. At his shop, the ultimate goal is authenticity. Sometimes a restoration can involve thousands of hours and years to achieve original perfection. Market Trends and Smart Collecting Rupert Banner demystified current auction markets, noting a shift toward modern collectibles and younger buyers. He stresses the value of detailed provenance and emphasizes: “There is so much more value in just owning something and enjoying it... the car may be a conduit to new opportunities, relationships, and experiences.” Cars as a Reflection of Identity and Community Tamara Warren explored how classic cars are powerful symbols of personal legacy and social connection. "To be a collector is actually to be a steward of a legacy," she noted, highlighting the responsibility and joy of carrying forward the story of each car, brand, and community. The Future: Innovation Meets Heritage Matt DeLorenzo and the panel tackled the balance between preservation and modernization, think EV conversions, restomods, and the ethics of “continuation” models. As Matt put it: “Even if there's the rise of the self-driving car, people look at automobiles as a form of recreation... it's a lifestyle, it's a community that's not going to go anywhere.” Call-to-Action Here's your one assignment for the week: Find a car that has personal meaning to you, whether it's a car you grew up with, saw in a movie, or admired from afar, and dig into its story. Look it up, read about it, maybe even check the market. You might discover a connection that turns into a future project, or at the very least, a deeper appreciation for what makes these vehicles legendary.  Find the Inspired Money channel on YouTube or listen to Inspired Money in your favorite podcast player.

Renault gana a Porsche… Y tu coche lleva turbo

En este podcast contamos con la colaboración de Airbnb https://www.airbnb.es/. Te voy a contar algunas experiencias que he tenido disfrutando de sus servicios, que seguro te van a dar buenas ideas a la hora de viajar. Abre el capó de tu coche: ¿Lleva turbo? Seguramente. Entre el 70 y el 80 por ciento de los coches habituales lo llevan. ¿Conoces el efecto mariposa? En 1978 un Alpine Renault A442B ganó a Porsche en Le Mans. Pues bien, esa victoria es la “culpable” de que tu coche lleve turbo. ¿Qué no te lo crees? Dímelo al acabar de ver este podcast. Me gustan las historias y esta es muy, pero muy buena. Cuenta como unos ingenieros con ingenio la “liaron” … pero bien liada. Tanto Alpine como Gordini eran dos empresas que colaboraban con Renault y ambas participadas por la marca. Alpine estaba especializada en hacer coches deportivos, pero en el mundo del Motorsport su especialidad eran los chasis para muchas disciplinas diferentes. Por su parte Gordini se dedicaba a los motores y daba su nombre a las versiones más deportivas equipadas con los motores preparador por ellos, como el inolvidable R-8 Gordini o el ineficaz R-12 Gordini… De estos coches hay que hablar. Pero ese será otro podcast. Campeonato Europeo de 2 litros. El Mundial de Resistencia y muchos campeonatos de menor rango, como el europeo, tenían la cilindrada tope limitada los 3 litros, como la F1. Pero había una categoría de 2 litros que Renault disputo y acabó venciendo en el año 1974, dejando un buen sabor de boca, pues era una forma de desmostar que los Renault eran rápidos y fiables. En esa época el “coeficiente de equivalencia” si usabas un turbo era en el Mundial de Marcas y la resistencia de 1.4 a 1 y en la F1 de 2 a 1. Es decir, que existía la posibilidad de montar un turbo al motor V6 a 90 grados de 2 litros. Como diría mi madre, “se juntaron el hambre con las ganas de comer” porque coincidieron en el tiempo dos jóvenes ingenieros con nuevas ideas, como era el caso de Bernard Dudot y François Guiter con un ingeniero-piloto como era el caso de Jean-Pierre Jabouille, con el título de ingeniero y grandes dotes como piloto. Al Alpine A441 Sport de 2 litros se le instaló un turbo y en su debut en los 1.000 km Jabouille acompañado de Larousse ganaron a la primera… pero luego la fiabilidad fue un verdadero quebradero de cabeza. ¿Qué se estaba haciendo mal? ¿O simplemente era imposible hacer un motor turbo fiable? Tras analizar la situación la conclusión fue que la desconexión entre el equipo de Chasis de Alpine y el de motores de Gordini era un grave problema. Estaban distanciados físicamente, Alpine en Dieppe y Gordini a 200 km en Paris. Pero aún estaban más distanciados en su filosofía de trabajo. Así que en 1975 nace Renault Sport que absorbe a ambas empresas y las unifica bajo una sola dirección. Los coches pasan a denominarse Renault-Alpine y no al revés. Y deciden asaltar Le Mans. Los Renault-Alpine de resistencia se mostraban rápidos pero frágiles… En las 24 Horas de 1977 dominaron los entrenamientos y la carrera, pero uno tras otros fueron cayendo. Y es que 24 horas son muchas. Pero 2, son pocas. Y 2 horas es el máximo de duración permitida en un G.P., de F1. Los ingenieros estaban sorprendidos de la potencia que se podía conseguir con el turbo y convencieron a los jefes de que mejor era irse a la F1… a pesar del coeficiente 2 a 1. Esos chicos, además de ser ingenieros brillantes, tenían una capacidad de convicción impresionante. Y convencieron a los mandamases y a mediados de 1977 Renault entra en la F1 con el RS01, que también se rompía una vez sí y otra también. Pero Renault no quería salir de Le Mans “por la puerta de atrás” sin conseguir una “turbo-victoria” pues no está de más recordar que quien ganaba en esos años era Porsche con motores turbo, ¡refrigerados por aire! Y que no se rompían. Así que a finales de 1977 la dirección de la empresa dio una orden muy clara para 1978… …¡hay que ganar en Le Mans! El año 1978 fue trepidante en Renault, pues ya sabéis que, salvo excepciones, Le Mans se disputa en el mes de junio. Se hicieron test intensivos en Paul Ricard, test en diversos aeropuertos, incluso se cerraron autopistas para simular las condiciones de la recta de las Hunaudières… Y llegó el fin de semana del 10 y 11 de junio de 1978…

The Learning Leader Show with Ryan Hawk Go to www.LearningLeader.com for full show notes This is brought to you by Insight Global. If you need to hire 1 person, hire a team of people, or transform your business through Talent or Technical Services, Insight Global's team of 30,000 people around the world have the hustle and grit to deliver. www.InsightGlobal.com/LearningLeader Larry Connor is an entrepreneur, non-profit activist investor, and adventurist. In business, he is best known for founding The Connor Group, a real estate investment firm, and growing it from $0 to $5 billion in assets. Outside of work, Larry lives an adventurous life. Within a 12 month period Larry did something that had never been done before. He completed 3 dives to the deepest part of the ocean (the Mariana Trench) AND traveled to the International Space Station as an astronaut. In addition to that, Larry is a private pilot and was part of a Le Mans racing team that has won championships. “At The Connor Group, we don't have, and never will have, a mission statement. We have culture. When you have the latter, the former is not necessary.” The culture is built on 5 core values, on which we don't compromise: Do the right thing People count Live the Circle of Success Think long-term, not short-term Relentless pursuit of excellence “We exist, quite simply, to be the best.” “We don't hire for experience. We don't hire for knowledge. We don't care where you went to school. We hire for personality traits. Especially in leadership roles. You have to have the big 6. You have to have all 6. They are: 1. Be able to motivate and inspire others. 2. Self-accountability and ability to hold others accountable in an honest, direct manner. 3. Organizational multi-tasking. The speed of the game is fast. 4. Cultural fit. 5. Grit. Doing the thing that others say are impossible. 6. Work orientation. If you want to come in at 8:30, take a 90-minute lunch, and leave at 4:30, The Connor Group is not for you. “People never outperform their own self-image. So aim high!” “Mediocre people don't like high achievers and high achievers don't like mediocre people.” “By definition, if you want to be exceptional, you have to be different. If you're like everybody else, you're going to end up like everybody else.” In 2008, Larry said, “We simply decided we weren't going to participate in the global recession.” 3 P's - People, Plan, Process People's performances are measured through daily, weekly, and monthly IAMs (Individual Accountability Meetings). Clear expectations and clear management. When I asked him about becoming a billionaire, Larry immediately jumped to the impact he's having on others. “There are far more important standards than money. How well have you treated your associates? Have you made them better people? How much have you done to help other people? Have you made a difference?” All of that is available to all of us regardless of us being a billionaire or not. The company headquarters are next door to a hangar that houses a working model of the “Wright B Flyer” - The Wright Brothers' first production airplane.

But just how good was his performance in the 24 hours, and how did Ferrari's third squad, which also featured Ye Yifei and Phil Hanson, beat its more acclaimed two factory cars?Also, did this year's Balance of Performance in the top class make Ferrari's route to a third successive victory too simple - and how much of a concern is one of its cars being disqualified post-race for a technical irregularity?
