Sports Car Challenge Varano

Attachment 16402
The 2006 Sports Car Challenge saw its first weekend of racing action on May 13/14 at the Autodromo Riccardo Paletti at Varano de’ Melegari in Italy. In the land of wine and Parmesan cheese, with the Dallara racecar factory and the Barilla pasta factory located nearby, you could call this the quintessential Italian racing circuit. At only 2.4 kilometers in length, it is nevertheless a demanding track for drivers and cars alike. Especially the cars took a beating this weekend.

With a few competitors deciding to give this first round a miss, among them Briton Mike Roberts who took part in a race in Britain instead, the field was down to thirteen cars for the qualifying session on Saturday, May 13. Czech newcomer Michal Pavlik experienced technical trouble with his Picchio that could not be remedied despite factory assistance, and Mobi Racing’s Klaus Wolfert also retired his MRP before the first race, with a blown engine.
