The 2011 FIA GT1 world championship finale in San Luis was the end of an era, but also the dawn of a new one. The last hurrah for the expensive and increasingly long-in-the-tooth GT1 machinery that was due to be phased out for 2012, it marked the dawn of Yelmer Buurman’s successful GT career that
Vinales stormed to victory in last Sunday’s 2021 season-opener at Losail after surmounting a quartet of Ducatis and Yamaha team-mate Fabio Quartararo.
