Oι ιταλοι αποδεικνυουν και επι του πρακτεου οτι διαθετουν τους πιο δυνατους diesel παγκοσμιως διαλυοντας τον ανταγωνισμο.

THE ALFA 147 JTD SCORED ITS THIRD CONSECUTIVE VICTORY IN THE DIESEL CLASS OF THE NURBURGRING 24 HOURS, CONFIRMING THE SUPREMACY OF THE MULTIJET INJECTION SYSTEM IN ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE CONDITIONS

The Alfa Romeo 147 JTD scored its third consecutive victory in the Diesel Class of the 24 Hours of Nürburgring, confirming the supremacy of the Multijet injection system in almost impossible conditions.

With two Golden Serpents – a symbolic reference to the traditional Alfa Romeo shield – already adorning the flanks of the cars, last weekend’s results added a third trophy to the collection. The Alfa 147 JTD 20V Multijet secured its third consecutive win at the 24 Hours of Nürburgring, in the hotly contested Diesel Class.

At the helm were former F1 driver Michael Bartels, former DTM driver Timo Scheider, Stefan Neuberger (head instructor at the Alfa Romeo Sports Driving School) and Herbert Schürg (Alfa Romeo test engineer). The Alfas easily dominated their 23 rivals in the Diesel Class, scoring an excellent 13th place in the overall classification, out of a total 216 entrants, ahead of many petrol-driven cars, some of which with more than twice the horsepower.

Just as it had done in the previous two 24 hour events, the Alfa Romeo 147 JTD made full use of the reliability and thrift of its state of the art Multijet injection technology. In conquering its third Diesel Class victory, the JTD completed 124 laps of the tortuous roller coaster ride through the Eifel hills: a demanding endurance test lasting 3,147 kilometres, during which the five cylinder turbodiesel ran with chronometric precision.

Each driver change was also perfectly executed by the Alfa Romeo Sports Division precisely on the time limit (2½ hours per shift). The few unscheduled pitstops were caused by changes in the weather. Repeated, violent downpours and temperatures around freezing reconfirmed Nordschleife’s reputation as the “Green Hell”, forcing teams to make frequent changes from slick to rain tyres and vice versa.

“The 147’s setup was a great advantage in these awful conditions” said Michael Bartels, who is also currently engaged in the FIA GT, driving a Maserati MC-12, “in both the wet and the dry, we were always able to drive at the limit”. If Bartels and his team-mates were not deterred by the weather, the approximately 180 thousand fans who lined the over 25 kilometres of track were equally determined.

The second car fielded by the Alfa Romeo Sports Division, the Alfa GT 1.9 JTD 16V Multijet, was less fortunate, however. Powered also by a turbodiesel unit, the coupe had finished the qualifying sessions in second place, behind the Alfa 147 JTD, but an off-track crash in the early stages of the race made an engine change necessary.

The car, driven by actress Eve Scheer, Bernd Ostmann (editor in chief of the motoring magazine “auto motor und sport”), touring car racing specialist Franz Engstler and the man from Alfa Romeo, Karl-Heinz Kalbfell, only returned to the track after a significant delay. “I still really enjoyed the 24 Hours again, because it is an expression of authentic motor sport', commented Kalbfell, after his third time participating in this, now legendary endurance race.

33rd ADAC Zürich 24 Hours of Nürburgring, Nordschleife, May 7 and 8, 2005; “Diesel Class” standings (24 cars entered): 1. Bartels/Scheider/Schürg/Neuberger Alfa 147 JTD 124 laps, 2. Haider/Kutsch/Hiltscher/Kraus BMW 330d - 4 laps, 3. Rattunde/Lloyd/Moore/Bolz VW Bora TDi - 8 laps

THE ALFA ROMEO 147 HAS WON ITSELF ANOTHER IMPORTANT TITLE BY CLAIMING THE PRESTIGIOUS ANNUAL '24 ORE DI AUTO' HELD AT THE MISANO CIRCUIT

The Alfa Romeo 147 has won itself another important title by claiming the prestigious annual '24 Ore di Auto' held at the Misano circuit.

The race, held on the 11th and 12th of May, was organised as usual by 'Cars' magazine on the Adriatic Misano race track, and the winning car this year was a 1.6-litre TwinSpark powered Alfa 147.

This latest endurance victory comes just weeks after a JTD-powered Alfa 147 scorched to victory in the Nuerburgring 24 Hours, its third consecutive win in what is self-billed as the 'world's toughest race'. A former winner of highly prestigious 'European Car of the Year' award, these two latest victories prove that the Alfa 147, recently given its mid-life update, is just as dynamically fresh as ever.

The specialist Italian review publication each year organises a marathon twenty four hour race that puts to the test high-volumes models in order to determine their levels of reliability, durability and of course performance. This year the magazine chose petrol and diesel engined models from the hotly-contested C-segment, picking twenty one cars from eleven different manufacturers. All the cars chosen had 115 bhp available. As well as the Alfa 147 1.6TS, other strong rivals for the race included a Renault Megane 1.6 16v, Audi A3 1.6 FSI, Toyota Corolla 1.6 VVT and Honda Civic V-TEC Sport.
The driving duties were entrusted to a number of leading Italian and foreign motoring journalists, which included three of the top European specialist car magazines: Autocar from Great Britain, Autovisie from Holland, and ViBilagare from Sweden.

The journalists were joined by regular test drivers, and all drivers rotated between the cars over the twenty four hour period. Television coverage was provided by the cameras of Motor RAI TG2.

Always pushing the cars to the limit, the only stops permitted by the organisers were regular pit visits to change the pilots, refuel the cars, and to change the Michelin-supplied 'control' tyres and the brakes. The winning Alfa 147 1.6TS completed 642 laps of the Adriatic circuit which equated to 2606.5 kilometers. During the 24 hours they replaced the front brake pads once and the front tyres three times. The car used 626.1 litres of petrol during the run, which meant that the Alfa 147 travelled 4.163 km per litre of petrol.

IL 24 ORE DI AUTO, MAY 11/12, 2005 - RESULT: PETROL CATEGORY:

1st Alfa Romeo 147 1.6 TS 642 laps (2606.5km) av. speed 108,542 km/h, 2nd Honda Civic 1.6 V-TEC Sport +4 laps, 3rd Citroën C4 Coupé 1.6 16V +7 laps, 4th Toyota Corolla 1.6 VVT-i +11 laps, 5th Mazda 3 1.6 16V +12 laps, 6th Ford Focus 1.6 Ti-VCT +13 laps, 7th VW Golf 1.6 FSI +15 laps, 8th Audi A3 1.6 FSI +16 laps, 9th Renault Mégane 1.6 16V +19 laps, 10th BMW 116i +21 laps

Αυτό είναι σωστό, μάλιστα αν δεν κάνω λάθος χρησιμοποιούσε τέτοιους κινητήρες σε αγώνες.
Το τι έγινε μετά πάντως δεν έχω ιδέα, φαντάζομαι έληξε η πατέντα ή κάτι τέτοιο οπότε και το πήρε η Honda. Σε συνδιασμό με τα ανθηρά οικονομικά του gruppo τότε... πολύ θέλει?
