  1. The Formula One circus will be back to outwit and outlast each other this weekend at the British Grand Prix - to take place at the iconic Silverstone circuit. But just seven days after - certain teams will return to lend their support to the Motor Sports Association's inaugural Go Motorsport Live! on the July 7th - which also happens to be the German Grand Prix. With free public access, Go Motorsport Live! has been introduced as part of National Motorsport Week (U.K.) to encourage more people to get involved in all areas of motorsport. A wide range of enthusiast motor clubs, championships, teams and other organisations will provide displays and offer advice to help newcomers get started in the sport, whether as a competitor, volunteer or spectator. So essentially it sounds like one of those open houses we have here by the Air Force or Home Team only this time its all about high octane and two pairs of wheels. Visitors to Go Motorsport Live! will not only be able to see one of the Marussia F1 Team's cars up close but they will also have the chance to win factory visits to both the Sahara Force India and Mercedes AMG Petronas Formula One teams. Sahara Force India is situated opposite the entrance to Silverstone and will be offering 50 lucky visitors a unique opportunity to visit the F1 team's headquarters. There will also be a chance for four Go Motorsport Live! visitors to win a factory tour at Mercedes AMG F1 at a later date. As a further attraction to Formula One fans, Silverstone will be offering hot laps on the southern section of its Grand Prix circuit as well as tours of its imposing new Wing pits. Visitors will even be offered the chance to stand on the F1 podium.
  2. Marussia is it's name and no matter how they've tried to make the car seem harmless and dainty in their promotional efforts, the name of the company and the design language the car speaks never stops reminding you that the car is born in mother Russia. And most likely would run you to the ground if you stopped by the showroom and didn't end up signing on those dotted lines for one. Started by a popular singer, television new anchor and theater actor, Nikolay Fomenko also found time to become an FIA N-GT champion and to start Russia's very own supercar company! Just from it's looks it's easy to see the influences that went into the design. Reventon lights on a very Zonda front, subtle zonda cockpit bubble and a very Enzo rear-end drives home the design direction the designers took, a fighter jet, yet again. And with the Tesla, Marussia is banking on incorporating hybrid technology in all their plans for their models and will could be possibly sourcing a 3.5 petrol engine from Nissan-Renault. With the battery though, Marussia will be looking towards more established companies in acquiring a battery employing nanotechnology (to combat the paralyzing cold weather in Russia). I think the car looks beautiful though. There's just something about the mish-mash of designs that actually seems to be distinguishing the Marussia as it's own. Update: Marussia announces a major partnership deal with Virgin with their Formula 1 team. AND Cosworth will be supplying ENGINES to the team. Is anyone seeing a link here? Marussia...I really hope you make these baby's in RHD. Here's a link to one of their promo's.
