The last weekend of March, the rain was lashing the capital of Spain wanted to take "a breather" during the weekend. At least on the day on Saturday, perfect so we could get closer to the Circuit of Jarama and enjoy a great day of racing. As it has happened in recent years, the Jarama was the first test of popularity in his short calendar and thanks to the falling water, its pelouses had a very different to the usual Brown green. The V of V, Championship created by Eric Van of Vyver and that happens as the French Endurance Championship, came to Madrid and did with four of his five tests. Action on track almost every time.
Within the four categories present in the Jarama, the main dish was the career of four hours for the WP. As any good Championship gt self-respecting, the V of V has a grill well populated Porsche that rivaled that of a lone Ferrari F430 and crumbling three Mosler MT 900 still demonstrate that they are able to want. Although the presence of a team of world-renowned, imsa Performance Matmut, on the side of the highest made us think that this time, the balance would fall on the side of the Germans.
But if the Endurance GT-tourism is the Queen, the most spectacular category is which brings together classic cars. For the circuit of Jarama saw models with almost 50 years old. In 1965, was a Ford falcon that really dazzled us. While its huge V8, its large size and coarse movements might make us think the Madrid route atragantaria you, you could top from the beginning. That Yes, it could not with the Chevron, Elva or Lola, big dominators of the four-hour race.
As Caesar should give him Caesar, we must not forget the other two categories that were present at the Madrid route. The resistance for prototypes, endurance proto, told with Ligier, standard or Wolf trays with an origin 2000 cc Honda engine allow them to fly in the Jarama. Finally the challenge funyo. A few small trays with a 2.0 of origin Peugeot and 190 hp engine.
And while the title is French, the teams are almost all French and pilots are mostly of France, in the circuit of Jarama, the Spanish pilots were also present. On the one hand, Angel Amilibia and lluis pons in the category of Endurance Proto. While at GT we had up to five pilots. Carlos arimon (Champion of the CER in category D3), Oliver Campos-hull (champion of Spain of GT-Lights), Pedro Bastos, Eugenio Martinez and Javier Escobar. In this group we should also place a par Spanish, Kostas Kanaroglou (champion Spain GT-Lights) Greek.
