Icona Vulcano, a flaming car, elegant ambitious project

The Icona Vulcano car, presented at the Private Motor Show in 2013, continues to fuel desires. Published in a single copy, which costs around €3 million, it could be a limited run if investors are waiting for.

The Icona Vulcano, a flamboyant car design

Developed in China by an Italian company, who wished to be closer geographically of the world’s largest car market, the Icona Vulcano has all the characteristics of traditional Italian race cars.

Declined in bright red, it reveals a synonym of an aggressive and energetic leadership resolutely sporting lines. However the vehicle has more elegant look thanks to its fine features, its bonnet and wings have been slightly refined.

The glittering allure of the Icona Vulcano is reminiscent of the most famous car brands dominating the circuit, like Ferrari or Bugatti. The concept car is still apart from its competitors by its exclusive appearance. Samuel Chuffart, designer at the helm of this ambitious project, says it wants to differentiate from mass production cars. The car is expected to be released in only five copies by fall 2014.

Two high-tech engines for Icona Vulcano

Two high-powered engines were considered for this car out of the ordinary. The first is a 790 horsepower V12 engine, called H-Turismo. With this system, developed by Claudio Lombardi and inspired by Formula 1, the Icona Vulcano happen to easily reach 930 horses. This process would also allow to pass the exercise of 0/100 km/h in less than 3 seconds and reach 200 km/h in under 10 seconds.

A second hybrid engine, of 3.8L biturbo and named H-competizione, has in turn had being imagined to be coupled with two electric motors to increase it to 870 horses and go from 0 to 100km/h in just 2.9 seconds.

According to Samuel Chuffart, other technologies could also be implemented to increase the power of the vehicle by the beginning of its production.

Exclusive models of Icona Vulcano should be sold at a price of $ 3.8 million.

Mercedes: one-two victory in Bahrain and Hamilton defeats Rosberg in epic desert duel

 

The 2014 F1 season continue this weekend with the third round, and first one in middle east, precisly in Bahrain with The Bahrain Grand Prix : In Arabic: جائزة البحرين الكبرى‎.

Before heading to results let’s catch up some history of the race.

The third round of the 2014 season was outstanding in every sense, from Mercedes’ breathless intra-team battle for victory to Force India springing a surprise and surging onto the final step of the podium.

There were fights throughout the order: Daniel Ricciardo rescued fourth for Red Bull, despite starting from 13th, while Williams’ Felipe Massa and Valtteri Bottas hounded four-time champion Sebastian Vettel – and each other – in the fight for sixth. McLaren were also in podium contention until late technical woes, while Esteban Gutierrez escaped unharmed from being pitched into a barrel roll at Turn 1. We take a team-by-team look back on Sunday’s action at Sakhir…

Mercedes got a one two – Lewis Hamilton wins & Nico Rosberg gots P2. Amid all the calls for changes to the new regulations, Mercedes made the best response they could by letting Hamilton and Rosberg run mano a mano in an epic fight for victory, producing the most exciting race yet of the new formula. The intervention of the safety car on lap 40 compromised Hamilton and favoured Rosberg, who’d opted to do his middle stint of medium tyress ready for a late-race charge on softs when Hamilton would be on the slower rubber. But in a tremendous duel the Englishman just fended off the German. Both described the race as one of the toughest they’d ever driven.

As we said the race was outstanding in every sense. As Sauber had a brutal race, with Sutil taken out in a silly incident with Bianchi on lap 18, and Gutierrez out on his head when Maldonado simply ran into the side of him in Turn 1 just after the Lotus driver had exited the pits. Esteban Gutierrez retired on lap 40 after that spectacular accident. Fortunately the Mexican was unharmed.

F1 2014 Malaysian Grand Prix result: Hamilton’ domination leads Mercedes to one-two in Malaysia, Rosberg secure his championship lead, Sebastian Vettel came third

It seems that this year is the German Mercedes year, with one win on the first Grand Prix in Australia, they follow up with a second one here in Malaysia.

The 2014 Formula One season has finally kicked off in Australia, which is been held two weeks ago at the Melbourne Grand Prix Circuit at Albert Park in Melbourne.

And today was the season second round in Sepang International Circuit in Malaysia time for the 2014 Malaysian Grand Prix.

The 29-year-old Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 star from Hertfordshire motored to a lights-to-chequered flag victory round the Sepang International Circuit near Kuala Lumpur this morning (Sunday), his first win in Malaysia. Lewis Hamilton had never won in Malaysia, until a crushing drive in Sepang on Sunday finally rectified that after an eight-year quest. The 2008 world champion was never troubled, taking the lead from pole position at the start and calmly controlling the race from Mercedes team mate Nico Rosberg, who eventually finished 17.3s adrift in second. Hamilton also added fastest lap to round off a near perfect weekend.

He crossed the finish line an emphatic 17 seconds clear of Silver Arrows teammate Nico Rosberg, as Mercedes claimed a podium one-two (The Silver Arrows’ one-two enabled Rosberg to retain his championship lead, but Hamilton now jumps up to second, 18 points adrift.) – the team’s first since Juan Manuel Fangio and Piero Taruffi at the 1955 Italian Grand Prix.

It was Hamilton’s second win for Mercedes and his 23rd Formula One career victory, and one of his most commanding.

Reigning F1 world champion, Sebastian Vettel also got his title defence off the ground, but was a beaten third, 24.5s behind Hamilton. The Red Bull driver challenged Rosberg very closely on one occasion and got within a second around the 34-lap mark, but dropped back after his fellow German repelled him, and later had to ease up to save fuel. Nevertheless, he received 15 points for his afternoon’s work.

Sebastian Vettel finished third for Red Bull, but the day belonged to Hamilton, who drove a faultless race from the front of the grid – and was interviewed afterwards on the podium by Sherlock star Benedict Cumberbatch.

Ferrari driver Fernando Alonso took fourth place in the provisional results ahead of Force India’s Nico Hulkenberg.

Jenson Button was sixth for McLaren, with Williams’ Felipe Massa seventh. Valtteri Bottas took eighth for Williams with McLaren rookie Kevin Magnussen ninth. Daniil Kvyat completed the top 10 for Toro Rosso.

Hamilton’s victory was the 15th for the Silver Arrows in Formula One and the 101st for Mercedes-Benz power. Cars powered by Mercedes also dominated the top 10 in Sepang.

The 2014 Malaysian Grand Prix winner said: “I’m incredibly happy today. This is my first win in Malaysia after eight attempts and to do it for our Petronas family in their home country makes it even more special.

“One-two finishes don’t happen very often and this is a real achievement for the team.” Malaysian Grand Prix winner Lewis Hamilton Said.

“It’s all down to the team. They have done a fantastic job and I have to say a huge thank you to everyone here at the track and back at our factories who have been pushing non-stop to get the car where it is.”

Hamilton took the chequered flag with an advantage of 17 seconds and set the fastest lap of the race on lap 52. However, he said it wasn’t as comfortable as the statistics suggest.

“The race was tougher than it perhaps looked today and the conditions here always make it a great challenge,” said the 2008 F1 world champion.

“But I was able to look after the car, the tyres and the fuel and still keep a bit of pace in hand which made my job that little bit easier.”

F1 2014 Drivers’ Championship (After Malaysian Grand Prix)

• 1 Nico Rosberg              43 points
• 2 Lewis Hamilton         25
• 3 Fernando Alonso    24
• 4 Jenson Button          23
• 5 Kevin Magnussen    20
• 6 Nico Hülkenberg     18
• 7 Sebastian Vettel      15
• 8 Valtteri Bottas           14

• 11 Jean-Eric Vergne     4
• 12 Daniil Kvyat                3
• 13 Sergio Perez             1

With Rosberg following up his Australian GP victory with another podium, Mercedes have overtaken McLaren in the constructors’ championship.
