23.01.2022 A Fórmula Vee irá realizar neste sábado (8/6), em Interlagos, o GP Niki Lauda, em homenagem ao piloto austríaco. Um dos maiores nomes do automobilismo mundial, ...tricampeão da Fórmula 1, Lauda iniciou sua carreira nas pistas na FVee. Ele morreu no último dia 20 de maio, aos 70 anos. Niki Lauda competiu na FVee europeia pela Kaimann Racing Team há exatos 50 anos, em 1969. Na época, esta era a principal categoria para a formação de pilotos no automobilismo mundial. Em seguida, ele disputou a Fórmula 2 e chegou à F1, onde se consagrou como um dos maiores pilotos de todos os tempos. O GP Niki Lauda terá duas provas em Interlagos, que serão válidas pela 5 etapa do Campeonato Paulista da categoria. O piloto que somar mais pontos nas duas corridas receberá o troféu em homenagem a Lauda, entregue por Wilson Fittipaldi Júnior, que competiu e conviveu ao lado do piloto austríaco em provas da F2 e F1 nos anos 1970. Wilsinho foi o criador da Fórmula Vee no Brasil, na década de 1960. Atualmente, ele é consultor técnico da categoria e instrutor de jovens pilotos. Além de competirem juntos, criaram uma forte amizade. Nunca vi um piloto reclamar dele. Sempre foi uma pessoa muita respeitosa, com uma capacidade técnica enorme para pilotar e acertar carros, e que dirigia com muita lealdade, lembra Wilsinho. Não corremos na mesma equipe, mas tínhamos uma boa amizade. Sempre que possível, na sexta-feira do fim de semana de provas, saíamos para jantar. Para esta prova especial, a Fórmula Vee terá um carro estilizado, como o que era pilotado por Niki Lauda em 1969. O modelo terá a mesma cor verde e os patrocinadores que apoiavam o piloto austríaco na época. As provas do GP Niki Lauda, sábado, em Interlagos, serão às 11h10 e às 13h35. Antes, às 8h55, será realizado o treino classificatório. Na sexta-feira, acontecem dois treinos livres, às 8h e às 12h05.

20.01.2022 SANDOWN // No show without punch! Third gear went bang - box full of gears but all in the wrong spot. Bloody Rod

20.01.2022 SANDOWN // It has been an eventful day for Team WA. Rod had a big off through the esses and unfortunately ended up in the wall. Thanks to the sportsmanship of our FVA community, many hands made light work and Rod was able to head back out on track for R3 - but had to retire early. It was fierce competition in the 1200’s with Mackenzie and Kathy pushing hard and progressing throughout the weekend.... Dave Caisley showed competitive pace throughout the weekend whilst struggling with a few mechanical issues. Superstar Cody Hill was a top performing WA competitor finishing just outside the top ten in 11th. Danny and Apes both tackled their weekend at Sandown with the support of Reynolds Racing and JRD. Danny made some great progress and got quicker throughout the weekend while Apes gave the wall a little love tap in R2 this morning but set a PB in her lap times and finished the weekend where she started in 20th. All in all another great weekend over East and looking forward to Sydney Motorsport Park in a few weeks. Thanks to Formula Vee Association of Victoria - FVAV for hosting a ripper event.

09.01.2022 One of the great benefits of our annual poster is we are left with a pictorial history of drivers and cars of the past. This one from 2006 season, recently block mounted by Kathy Lisson, highlights some absolute legends of the club. Take a walk down memory lane to 2006, a Nationals year in WA

09.01.2022 You know it doesn’t matter where around the world you race Formula Vees, the fundamentals, competition, inclusion, help and friendships are the same both on and off the track.

01.01.2022 Live in 5 Race 3 on VTV Facebook Page

01.01.2022 A fantastic write up in Auto Action this week as it clearly shows the competitiveness of Formula Vee racing in WA. Last corner of the last lap of 2020 for the 1600’s and no quarter given, mainly because they had every quarter of the track covered. 4 wide in the braking zone for Turn 7.......was never going to work. ... But in motor racing it ain’t over til it’s over. Bring on 2021.

01.01.2022 Rod Lisson asked for this to be posted. Someone please tag him. Very glad he walked away and I’m completely amazed the car made race 3.
