The fth round of the World FIA GT1 Championship
took place last weekend at the Silverstone circuitin England. Following an eventful race marked by
many collisions (no less than 6 cars failed to cross
the chequered ag owing to accidents), the Nissan
GT-R driven by Michael Krumm and Lucas Luhr
(team JR Motorsports), for which Motul is a techni-
cal partner, won the day brilliantly!
This ne performance secured on home turf allows
the English team to place its two drivers at the head
of the driver standings, 9 points ahead of the duo
Piccini / Hohenadel (team Hexis Racing), now pla-
ced third in the driver standings after taking a so-
lid fourth at Silverstone. Less luck however for the
French teams sister car, as Clivio Piccione and
Christian Hohenadel were forced to abandon the
race following a collision whereas they were in the
top ve.
As for the three other contending Nissan GT-Rs, the
same thing happened to numbers 21 (Sumo Power
GT) and 22 (JR Motorports), which collided and un-
fortunately nished the race on the recovery vehicle.
Placed seventh, the Nissan GT-R driven by Hughes /
Bernoldi (team Sumo Power GT) escaped, for its
part, unscathed. Next race in Navarre, in Spain,on 3 July!

Guy Martin/Relentless Suzuki by TAS
Its off to a start! The week of the Tourist Trophy,
the most legendary road motorcycle race, for which
Motul is the ofcial lubricant supplier for the second
consecutive year, has indeed started.
While the rst races were dissimilar in style, on the
other hand, the performances by Guy Martin, the
famous rider of team Relentless Suzuki by TAS, for
which Motul is a technical partner, were extremely
regular. Indeed, after securing the third step of the
podium on Monday 6 June in Supersport race 1
(four 60 km laps were on the programme, in other
words a total of 240 kms and 1056 turns!) at the
wheel of his GSX-R 600, Guy Martin pulled off the
same performance again a few hours later at the
Superstock race.
Still at the Superstock race, note should also be ta-
ken of the ne sixth place taken by Cameron Donald
of team Wilson Craig Racing (also supported tech-
nically by Motul).
The second rider of Team Relentless Suzuki by TAS,
Guillaume Dietrich was making, for his part, his mai-
den outing at the Tourist Trophy. Nevertheless, after
giving himself two dreadful frights during the last
qualier, the French rider who takes part regularly in
the French Superbike Championship, quite simply
decided to prematurely put an end to his adventure
on the Isle of Man. Ive decided to stop before its
too late. Im sure to disappoint a lot of people. For
once Ill swallow my pride! My respect for TT riders
has only grown. Theyre well and truly on another
planet he explained to justify his decision.
Pending the Pokerstars senior, the major race, Mo-
tul riders will be back on the road this Wednesday
for Supersport race 2.

OCBC Corporate Karting Challenge
Inaugurated in 2009, the Kartright Speedway kar-
ting facility located in Singapore opened its doors
for the rst time to the public on 1 October of the
same year (cf. Motul Sport News no. 4). An auda-
cious challenge for the investors which soon proved
to be a genuine success.
Indeed, in less than 2 years, with the help of a group
of partners including Motul, this karting complex has
shown the growing enthusiasm for motorsports in
the region. No less than 20,000 enthusiasts have
already had a go at experiencing the joys of racing
during the various rental sessions or else at the va-
rious corporate events such as for instance the
OCBC Corporate Karting Challenger, the rst race
of which took place on 28 May this year.
Following this ercely fought 4-hour elimination
round, it was Aston Martin Drakar Racing Team
which won by crossing the chequered ag after
clocking 293 laps, in other words one lap ahead
of its closest contender. Like the second, third and
fourth-placed teams, the riders of the winning team
have won their tickets to the grand nal to be held on
15 October in the presence of eight other teams.

David Gaviria & Thomas Puerta/Team LTD racing
One week after being the star attraction at the World
Superbike at Salt Lake City, the AMA Pro Racing
riders were back at the Road America circuit (Wis-
consin) for the 4th round of the American Superbike,
Supersport and Sportbike Championships.
It was in the Supersport category that Motuls colours
shone particularly: one of the teams receiving techni-
cal support clinched two podiums last weekend!
In effect, thanks to its Colombian riders David Gaviria,
winner of the Saturday race and Thomas Puerta, third
of the Sunday race, LTD Racing YES Yamaha placed
its riders at the head of their respective championship
(West and East divisions). A situation which allows
Gary Medley the highly experienced team manager
to even hope for a happy end to the championship
if his riders maintain their level of performance and
concentration.
In Sportbike, Huntley Nash, also contending on a LTD
Racing Yamaha R6, is progressing little by little in the
standings after placing 13th and then 12th. Goal: the
top 10 at the next meeting in Barber in 10 days !

Motul Classic Car Meeting/GAZ GL-1 1938
Located 400 km to the southeast of Moscow, Nizhny
Novgorod is the third Russian city after Moscow and
Saint Petersburg. It is also the legendary bastion of the
Russian car group GAZ set up in 1929 thanks to coo-
peration between Ford and the Soviet Union.
It was therefore natural to organise there the rst of
a series of events to celebrate the car makers 80th
anniversary. Proudly supported by Motul Russia, this
meeting grouped at the end of May the makes nest
models patiently restored by enthusiasts or major col-
lectors. Among the exhibited models, the legendary
GAZ MM truck or else the GAZ-410 and GAZ-23 (tted
with a V8 engine) were of course present.
Nevertheless, everyone, cameramen included, were
looking at one and the same vehicle: a GAZ GL-1 fresh
from the makes restoration workshops after three
years of reconstruction made possible using photos
and drawings. Launched in 1938, the GAZ GL-1 is in-
deed the very rst Russian sports car. Produced on
the base of the GAZ-M1 (itself derived from the Ford
V8-40), the GAZ GL-1 could reach 161km/h!

Romain Stampers /Team RaceSpirit
The second round of the UIM Jetski World Cham-
pionship was held during the weekend of 28 and
29 Mai in Sardinia in the bay of Arbatax.
As at the rst round that took place in Doha
(cf. MSN 10), team JetSpirit, supported technically
by Motul, gave an explosive performance by clin-
ching a double win!
In the F1 top category, Jeremy Poret put his stamp on
the 2011 championship by winning this Italian round
and also by strengthening his lead in the overall stan-
dings. For her part, Julie Bulteau, who was leading
the championship before this second round, had to
satisfy herself with a 3rd place following a penalty in a
race she led from start to nish.
The ne performance of the weekend is to be credi-
ted to Romain Stampers who won in Freestyle for the
rst time of the year in this championship, thanks in
particular to gures with maximum amplitude.
As for the Run F1 category, note should be made of
Franky Zapatas poor performance at the wheel of his
MZR: he couldnt fully defend his chances as he was
forced to abandon after a mechanical glitch.
All these riders will be present for the third round of
the UIM World Championship on 4 and 5 June at
Ghuisonacce in Corsica.
