    Pierre Lundin /CTIC China Team /Moore - Mercury

    Supported technically by Motul, the CTIC China Team

    participated on 5 March in the F1 H20 World Cham-

    pionship 2011 in Doha.

    On this occasion, everyone from Philippe Chiappe

    or Pierre Lundin, the two drivers of the team, to Eric

    Chan, team manager, was motivated to get it right

    and forget as soon as possible the various mechanical

    glitches encountered last year.

    The Franco-Chinese team more than succeeded in

    its endeavour! After securing the second best time in

    the tests and warm-up, Philippe Chiappe managed to

    position himself among the top teams during the race

    and nally clinched third place behind Team Qatars

    two drivers.

    Despite the boats good set-up and the quality of the

    work put in by all the team during the winter, this result

    is above all Philippes achievement because, although

    he suffered a power steering breakdown, he managed

    to hold the competition back for 15 laps and podiu-

    med for the sixth time in his career.The second round

    of the season is to be held in Portimao (Portugal) on

    22 May.

    Philippe Chiappe off to an excellent start!

    New Spyker C8 Aileron GT

    Spyker Squadron, the racing division of the famous

    supercar manufacturer, Spyker created in 1898, an-

    nounced on 1 March it had chosen to focus its resour-

    ces in 2011 on its next generation of GTs.

    Based on the all-new Spyker C8 Aileron and develo-

    ped to meet the new GT Endurance regulations intro-

    duced by the Automobile Club de lOuest (creator and

    organiser of the famous 24 Hours of Le Mans), this

    new GT will start racing as of 2012.

    As a technical partner of this prestigious OEM, Motul

    will participate in the development of this exceptional

    car. The aim will be to make it at least as good as the

    C8 Laviolette GT2 which, it should be recalled, won

    two second podium steps during the 2009 Le Mans

    Series Championship and secured a superb fth place

    in its class in Le Mans.

    This sabbatical year will also be devoted to contacting

    new teams wishing to enter the new Dutch GT in the

    nest Endurance events in 2012.

    Last, it should be noted that, depending on demand

    received by the end of the rst season, a GT3 variant

    could also be developed quite quickly.

    Supported technically by Motul, the Reece Bancell

    Association puts a lot of effort into helping young

    riders compete in various Australian motorcycle racing

    championships.

    Among the riders helped by the association, the young

    Mike Jones is participating in the Australian Supers-

    tock 600 championship of which the second round of

    the season was held at Symmons Plains on 6 March.

    A racing weekend which the association will not easily

    forget as its young prodigy quite simply made it into a

    perfect one!

    In effect, after clinching pole position, winning the three

    races of the weekend and establishing the new lap

    record, Mike Jones also took the lead of the cham-

    pionship, 34 points ahead of his closest rival, Mark

    Wilkinson.

    The 7th edition of the Mark Hahn Memorial Havasu

    300 race has just taken place on 26 February in the

    United States. Very popular (more than 45 teams

    on the start line!) despite difcult February conditions

    on Lake Havasu, this jetski endurance event, of which

    Motul is a partner, has been organised since 2005

    in remembrance of Mark Hahn, a major watersports

    gure in the United States, who died while racing.

    This event is the endurance race for all Jetski drivers

    and recalls in many ways the philosophy of the Le

    Mans 24 Hours car race:

    - A Le Mans-type start.

    - A very long circuit (10 miles to be crossed 30 times)

    - A teams race (2 drivers for sitdown jetskis and

    3 drivers for standups)

    - Prime importance of the refuelling strategy and

    management.

    - Very high average speed (65 mph for the winner)

    Thanks to the Carlier/Pastorello duo, Kawasaki won

    for the 4th time in 7 years!
