Planetlemans talks to Gianmaria Bruni
Gianmaria Bruni has started 2008 with a series of wins on the Ferrari 430 GT. Both FIA-GT and LMS events have seen him already on top of the podium so the young Roman is feeling pretty positive and confident at this time.

Planetlemans talks to Jonathan France
A dream treasured for years that finally comes true.

But let’s look back at the origins of it all and how an ambition became a reality[…]

Patrick Long talks to The Tour and Planetlemans
Passionate oval racing fans in the US will try and tell you that the likes of Dale Jnr or Jimmie Johnson are the greatest racing drivers from the good ‘ol US of A, others may point to Scott Speed being the 1st driver to have reached (and left!) Formula One in more than a decade but those in the know will tell you about a young man who is making a name for himself as one of the best Sportscar drivers around. […]
Planetlemans talks to Christian Klien
He was a revelation in Formula 1 impressing a lot of people right from the start, it is hard to believe therefore that Christian Klien does not have a permanent seat in a top team…but this has changed just recently.
