LONDON : 4th August 2005: Some of the greatest and most legendary names in world
motorsport are preparing to be reunited in a ‘world-first’ Grand Prix Masters Series. The Altech Grand Prix
Masters of South Africa will be the inaugural event for the 2006 series and takes place in Kyalami on 11th –
13th November - a circuit Grand Prix racing last visited back in 1993.

The international cast of champions and characters boast a treasure trove of history between them and
include Emerson Fittipaldi (Brazil), Alain Prost (France), Ricardo Patrese (Italy), Alan Jones (Australia), Stefan
Johansson (Sweden), Andrea de Cesaris (Italy), René Arnoux (France), Jan Lammers (Netherlands) and
Christian Danner (Germany) to name but a few with other names due to be announced shortly. Between 14
and 16 cars are anticipated for the inaugural grid in Kyalami with the total prize fund for the opening race
being $500,000. The minimum age criteria is set at 45 years of age.

Brazilian racing legend Emerson Fittipaldi (twice F1 World Champion, Indy 500 winner, and CART Champion)
expressed his anticipation at the prospect of being reacquainted with his former adversaries: “I'm very excited
about the Grand Prix Masters World Series. Reuniting champions and great drivers from the past in a racing
environment where we'll have very powerful cars with minimal technological driver-aids will make for great
entertainment and fun for both the drivers and spectators alike. The ingredients for an extremely compelling
series are all here.”

Awaiting the arrival of the protagonists will be 600 brake horse power machines capable of exceeding over
200mph! The all-new single seater race car has been designed and built by Delta Motorsport
(Northamptonshire, UK). Powered by an 80-degree 3.5-litre V8 Nicholson McLaren Cosworth engine, the
Grand Prix Masters cars will produce in excess of 600bhp. Based on the highly successful Cosworth XB Indycar
engine, Nicholson McLaren have developed this normally-aspirated version offering more than 600bhp at
10,400rpm while maximum torque is achieved at over 320 lb ft at 7,800rpm. The engine combines compact
dimensions, minimum weight, maximum strength and awesome power output. The 650kg cars (excluding
driver) will be equipped with a six-speed paddle shift gearbox and at the opening race in Kyalami, drivers are
expected to be exposed to corning g-loads of around 2.5g! Electronic driver aids have been kept to a minimum
and a stable aerodynamic platform has been defined in an effort to maximise driver input, involvement and
overtaking.
