The press launch is the culmination of 14 months of hard work undertaken by a team of likeminded, determined motorsport professionals. These professionals have worked tirelessly to develop a truly unique product offering in the competitive world of motorsport.
The team consists of four separate specialist organizations:
- Manufacturer ADESS AG headed by Stéphane Chosse
- G PRIVATE Racing headed by Helmut Gay
- Circuit Mallorca headed by Beatriz Perello, Helmut Gay and Didi Zuber
- ALL-SPORTS Racing School headed by Helmut Gay, Sebastian Grunert and Didi Zuber
The press launch was attended by government dignitaries of Mallorca, local and international press and professionals from the world of motorsport all brought together for a press launch and car unveiling at Circuit Mallorca´s professional, purpose built, pit lane presentation rooms.
The enthusiastic audience listened to a short introduction by the corporate heads before witnessing the first unveiling of the ADESS G PRIVATE Racing 03-LMP3 car.
The all new LMP3 car will be piloted by G Private Racing Team drivers. The lineup consists of the vastly experienced Jürgen Alzen bringing his extensive track record in endurance racing, Sebastian Stahl the SEAT Leon cup champion with A1GP and considerable endurance race experience and the highly experienced Sebastian Grunert with a 20 year CV in circuit and road racing, winner of various championships and cups. Grunert is also the resident chief driving instructor at Circuit Mallorca.
The close cooperation of the four corporate entities gives arise to a unique set of circumstances:
- With the manufacturer and race team located under the same roof there is the opportunity for a wealth of information sharing, leading to a creative and technical hot bed of ideas.
- The ideas generated can be tested instantly, extensively and directly given the pit lane location at Circuit Mallorca.
- All lessons learned and technological advancements can be passed directly to customer teams.
- Given the favorable climatic conditions in Mallorca the opportunity to test and put ideas into practice is 365 days a year.
- The future customers of these specialist LMP3 cars will benefit directly from the know-how of G-PRIVATE Racing with access to their extensive racing experience providing a service virtually comparable with direct factory support.
- Initially the project will create 10 to 12 jobs in Llucmajor, Mallorca.
- Another significant advantage over the competition will be the permanent track side availability of our in house LMP3 car which will be made available for testing directly on the in house Circuit with the support of the established ALL-SPORTS Racing School.
G PRIVATE Racing has also been successfully competing for many years in GT and endurance race series throughout the world. They operate 5 fully equipped race trailers each customized for either a one or two race car set up.
The long established G PRIVATE racing base is located in Krumbach, Schwaben, Germany where race preparation takes place for cars in the various European series.
The LMP3 ADESS-03 car will be constructed in the purpose built, pit-side garage in Mallorca in addition to the ADESS headquarters in Munich, Germany.
Whilst Circuit Mallorca provides ideal facilities for testing of the new cars there is a process under way to extend the circuit, particularly the back straight, to facilitate high speed aero testing and new events. The track will then have a total length of approximately 5.2 km and importantly a back straight in the region of 1.5 km.
Combining the newly enlarged circuit and the 12 months availability presents unique opportunities for manufacturer, race team, and private customers alike.
Production of ADESS-03 LMP3 race cars is now fully under way at Circuit Mallorca.
