Start of the FFSA Camions season in a big style: Buggyra Academy France dominates Le Castellet
In the overall standings, Téo leads, Raphaël is second, and José Sousa underlined the Academy's strong performance by finishing fourth. "It was a rollercoaster weekend—full of emotions and plenty of action on the track. There were some setbacks, but that’s part of racing. As a bonus, Buggyra Academy France locked out the podium in the final race. Téo leaves Le Castellet as the overall winner. Compared to last year, this is a huge improvement," said Fabien Calvet, boss of Buggyra Academy France. Téo Calvet started the season’s opening race from pole position and successfully defended his lead, finishing 8.4 seconds ahead of Raphaël Sousa. "First race, first win. I'm really happy. There was a big fight behind me at the start, but the race settled down. I just focused on maintaining a consistent pace, and it worked," said the winner of the opening round. The afternoon race, which featured a reversed starting grid, was won by Thomas Robineau in a MAN truck. José Sousa took second place, finishing 7.9 seconds behind. Raphaël came in fourth, while Téo was forced to retire due to technical issues. "I started from eighth, but unfortunately I couldn't finish because of a steering problem," lamented Téo Calvet. He bounced back in the next race, held on Sunday. Once again, he started from pole and brought it home in first place. "It was a really good race. I started from the front and stayed there. We had a red flag, but I managed to keep my rhythm," said the Frenchman after securing his second win of the weekend. As the saying goes, the best was saved for last. The final race of the weekend, with another reversed grid, turned into a Buggyra Academy France showcase. The team’s drivers completely dominated the podium: Raphaël Sousa took the win ahead of his father José, while Téo Calvet completed the sweep in third place. "The fourth race was amazing—really incredible. It was a fight all the way through. Raphaël finished first, José second, and I came in third. It's just fantastic for the Academy. I'm so proud of the whole team," Téo added. The French Truck Racing Championship continues on 21–22 June at the Nogaro circuit, the home track of Buggyra Academy France. https://www.facebook.com/BUGGYRA https://twitter.com/buggyra_racing https://www.linkedin.com/company/buggyra-racing https://www.instagram.com/buggyra_racing/ https://www.tiktok.com/@buggyra

Beautiful Scenery and Challenging Terrain: Buggyra ZM Racing Kicks Off the “Chinese” Dakar
At the Taklimakan Rally — one of the world’s most demanding cross-country events — they have successfully completed the prologue and the first stage in a highly competitive field. “After a few weeks of logistical complications, we finally made it to the prologue. We've overcome all the issues along the way and we’re ready,” said Buggyra team principal Martin Koloc at the start of the event. The crew of the Red-Lined REVO T1+ GTR was immediately put to the test in both the prologue and the first stage. Aliyyah finished 9th out of 109 competitors in the prologue. Today’s 161 km-long section of Stage 1 proved to be even more challenging. “The track was very demanding. We had to stay extremely focused because it was easy to make a mistake. We had to change a tyre and got lost a few times. Since the briefings are in Chinese, we ended up crossing the wrong bridge and lost a lot of time. At the finish, we were given a 10-minute penalty for supposedly not crossing the line correctly, which pushed us down to 33rd place. But we’re not letting that get to us. I have a good feeling about the race so far and I’m really looking forward to tomorrow,” the young racer shared. “This rally is very different from what I’m used to. The language barrier is a big challenge, even with a translator. We’re also back to using a paper road book instead of an electronic one — so Seb definitely isn’t getting bored! But the scenery out here is stunning. If I weren’t driving, I’d stop and take pictures,” Aliyyah added from the bivouac. The total route of the Taklimakan Rally spans approximately 4,500 kilometres, with 2,350 kilometres of timed stages. The finish is scheduled for June 1st in Kashgar. https://www.facebook.com/BUGGYRA https://twitter.com/buggyra_racing https://www.linkedin.com/company/buggyra-racing https://www.instagram.com/buggyra_racing/ https://www.tiktok.com/@buggyra

The action-packed FACE OFF programme has started, with all the adrenaline and emotions that only racing can offer. Buggyra takes plenty of experience and two victories from the Red Bull Ring in Austria.
The very first duel between two teams, each consisting of a young hopeful paired with an experienced driver behind the wheel of a Mercedes-AMG GT4, took place at the Red Bull Ring over the weekend as part of the GT Cup Series. But in all motorsport the machinery has to play its part as well – and ultimately this was why the two crews were unable to race against each other. Young Czech racers Filip Nedoma (18) and Miroslav Mikeš (16) are taking part in this daring and unprecedented motorsport event. Both were down to race a Mercedes AMG GT4 in Austria matched with experienced professionals: Buggyra racers Adam Lacko and Martin Hudec. Hudec replaced Aliyyah Koloc, who is taking part in the demanding Taklimakan Rally in China. However, her twin sister Yasmeen Koloc, who works as a race engineer for one of the teams, was very much present in Austria to uphold family honour. Nedoma and Mikes are being assessed throughout the season using a specially developed internal evaluation system, whose metrics range from race performance to technical feedback and off-track development. After the first race, Team 29 (Nedoma's team) had accumulated 64 points while Team 55 (where Mikeš is a junior) totalled 18 points. However, the Buggyra squad had its first drama before racing even began, with the reserve Mercedes-AMG GT4 having to be deployed in Austria. The innovative FACE OFF programme has brought a healthy rivalry to the Buggyra pit wall. While Mikeš and Lack dominated the practice sessions, the races belonged to Nedom and Hudec. But even though one of the crews couldn't race, they all cheered on their rivals: underlining the fantastic team spirit in the pits. The packed programme started with Saturday's endurance event. The Hudec-Nedoma crew finished fourth in the GT4 class. Martin Hudec commented: "In the first half, I tried to keep the podium place and to get as far away from the Porsche behind us as possible; I was quite successful in doing that. But the safety car came out twice and erased the lead again. I basically wanted to give Filip as much margin as possible to keep our podium, but in the end it turned out the way it did." Filip Nedoma, who took over the wheel from his mentor, enthusiastically reported from the pits: "The opening race was amazing. I did a bit of rallying, but otherwise I enjoyed the whole thing!" Unfortunately, Lacko and Mikeš did not make the finish due to a technical issue. Adam Lacko said: “From the beginning it was one big mess. Already in the formation lap we were encountering problems and when we came to the start we were about 100 metres behind everyone else. Unfortunately, our car eventually stopped running, but that's racing: we have to deal with it," said Adam Lacko. Miroslav Mikeš didn't even get to drive. "Adam pitted early because of a technical fault, which the guys tried to solve quickly,“ he said. “By the time I was ready to go, the car was still out of action. So I didn't even complete one lap in the end.“ Sunday brought two 25-minute sprint races. In the first one, Filip Nedoma showed his class and deservedly took the trophy for the GT4 class win. "I am really happy,“ he said. “It was a great race right up to the finish. I fought tooth and nail with Owl in the Lotus. It was a tough but fair fight and we shook hands on the podium. It was a beautiful race and I'm absolutely delighted." Sunday's second race in the GT4 category was also dominated by Buggyra. This time, Martin Hudec was on the top step. "Right from the start, it was a race full of tension,“ he said. “Even the faster cars were somewhat slow; it looked like they were weak on the brakes. I think everybody was scared because it was quite slippery. As a result, blue flags and slower cars in the corners affected the class battles a lot. But I had a great time.“ Unfortunately, the second Mercedes was missing in the sprint races due to persistent technical issues, so neither Adam Lacko nor Miroslav Mikeš took to the track. "The guys tried all night to fix the fault on the car, but unfortunately it didn't work,“ said Adam Lacko. “There‘s still a problem that we haven't managed to identify. Mercedes told us not to risk it; and that the car could burn out completely. That’s clearly a risk to both us and the machinery, which isn’t the name of the game here. Of course we wanted to race, but unfortunately on this occasion we just couldn’t." But naturally his fighting spirit did not leave him. “We‘re not giving up,” he added. “Technical problems are just a part of motorsport and this is also an experience that comes with any racing career. But in less than a month in Lausitz, we will definitely be back stronger than ever." The next FACE OFF duel will be hosted by the Lausitzring in Germany from 14-15 June. https://www.facebook.com/BUGGYRA https://twitter.com/buggyra_racing https://www.linkedin.com/company/buggyra-racing https://www.instagram.com/buggyra_racing/ https://www.tiktok.com/@buggyra

Buggyra ZM Racing ready for Taklimakan Rally: Logistical and administrative hurdles overcome
After months of preparation and overcoming complex logistical and administrative obstacles, the team is ready to take on its first rally raid on Chinese soil. The Taklimakan Rally marks Aliyyah Koloc’s return to competition after her accident during the Abu Dhabi Desert Challenge in February. She had to withdraw from the Jordan Rally in March but used the time to recover and complete a multi-day test in the dunes of Dubai. She will compete in her Red-Lined REVO T1+ GTR, once again co-driven by experienced Frenchman Sébastien Delauney. “We had a very good test in Dubai a few weeks ago,” Aliyyah shares. “That helped me get back into the car. The rally will last two weeks, so I’ve been working on my physical endurance. I’m not sure what to expect, but I know it’ll be an amazing experience. I’m glad to have Sébastien [Delauney] at my side as he’s very experienced in unknown territory.” Challenging cultural barriers and food supply Organizing participation in a rally of this scale in such a remote part of China has required extensive groundwork. Martin Koloc, CEO and team principal of Buggyra ZM Racing, highlights some of the difficulties: “We have to fully operate the team from two of our workshop containers only, which creates a huge difference from other events we do. In the Middle East or Europe, we can rely on a mobile infrastructure of support trucks, fast response vehicles, and nearby factories, but here we have to be highly self-sufficient. The nearest Buggyra facility is 4,000 km from the rally HQ and it is not equipped to service rally vehicles.” Since mid-April, Buggyra has had personnel on-site in China to oversee customs and logistics, but the operations have still been complicated. “We only received the final customs stamp on May 14, a week before the rally starts!” says Martin Koloc. Communication styles, business culture, and language have also been challenging. Additionally, ensuring proper nutrition for the team became another major task. While Buggyra is familiar with Eastern and Central Chinese cuisine, the Inner Mongolian region, where the rally is held, offers limited familiar food options. “We decided to import our own food for the whole team,” explains Martin Koloc. “I let you imagine the administrative trail to obtain the necessary permissions…” Strategic presence in China Buggyra has previous experience in China, driving in various Chinese racing series, but the Taklimakan Rally marks the team’s first off-road race in the country. Buggyra’s decision to enter this event reinforces the team’s strategic interests in the region. “Motorsport is becoming more and more popular in China. We want to be part of this rally culture, especially since we run one arm of the Buggyra Academy out of Jinan,” says Martin Koloc. “Also, our naming partner, Zero Mileage Lubricants (ZM), is based in China. The rally is their communication highlight of the year, and they will launch a new product just one day after the rally ends in Kashgar, with nearly 1,000 guests attending.” Preparing with limited pre-event information “It is almost impossible to prepare well for this event,” says Martin Koloc. “For example, the organizers only announced the first bivouac location on May 14. As of today, we don’t even know the exact location of the start ramp! We’re preparing to improvise.” Second only to the Dakar in difficulty and length, the Taklimakan Rally will start in Aksu, near the Mongolian border in Northwest China, covering approximately 4,500 kilometers, including 2,350 kilometers of timed special stages. It will conclude in Kashgar on June 1. The terrain and remoteness of the region will test both human endurance and technical equipment.

Buggyra ZM Racing starts GT Cup season and FACE OFF program in Austria
Regular Buggyra ZM Racing driver Aliyyah Koloc will be replaced by Martin Hudec for this race as she will be participating in the Taklimakan Rally starting on May 19 in China. Announced earlier this week in Prague, FACE OFF is a season-long development initiative by Buggyra Academy designed to accelerate the growth of two young Czech drivers, Filip Nedoma (18) and Miroslav Mikeš (16). Each will share a GT Cup car with an experienced professional driver, competing under standard championship regulations while gaining valuable race experience. For the first round, Miroslav Mikeš will be partnered with 44-year-old experienced rally and circuit racer Martin Hudec. He will be stepping in for regular Buggyra ZM Racing driver Aliyyah Koloc, who is preparing for her first participation in the Taklimakan Rally in China starting next week. Filip Nedoma will race alongside Czech GT veteran Adam Lacko. “The Red Bull Ring will be the first opportunity to see how our young drivers and the team perform under race conditions,” said Martin Koloc, CEO and team principal of Buggyra ZM Racing. “This program is designed to offer significant development opportunities through real competition, not just simulators or tests.” Not just a driver development program The FACE OFF program is also intended to benefit the whole race team, providing practical experience to young engineers, mechanics, and support staff working alongside senior personnel. The two young drivers, Filip Nedoma and Miroslav Mikeš will be assessed throughout the season with the help of a specifically developed internal evaluation system, with metrics ranging from race performance and technical feedback to off-track development. “FACE OFF is not intended to be a championship within a championship,” said Jan Koubek, CEO of Buggyra Academy. “It’s fully integrated into the GT Cup Series, giving our drivers a realistic and safe environment in which to learn.” First race at the famous Red Bull Ring The GT Cup opener at the Red Bull Ring will serve as the first of several opportunities this season to follow the progress of Buggyra’s FACE OFF program in action. The Red Bull Ring is a very fast 4.318 km long track with long straights in Austria. The GT CUP Series has been holding races at the Red Bull Ring since 2016. The weekend will be split into a 1-hour endurance race on Saturday and two sprint races on Sunday. Qualifying for the endurance race takes place on Saturday at 10.10 am with the race starting at 5.50 pm. Qualifying for the sprint races will take place on Saturday at 1.25 pm with the two 25-minute sprint races starting at 9.20 am and 1.20 pm.

A short explainer showcasing how their impressive AI coaching solution works can be found at https://youtu.be/X2dVYSIZl14 As a spokesperson for Hitting Performance Lab explained, youth softball and baseball coaching have become more competitive and more demanding, resulting in coaches often needing to dedicate hours of planning to achieve the results players and parents are seeking.

Buggyra Academy Launches Groundbreaking FACE OFF Program: Four drivers, two cars, one journey
Not just with coaching or simulator training, but by putting them side by side with experienced pros in actual race conditions. Today in Prague, Buggyra Academy, part of Buggyra ZM Racing, unveiled its FACE OFF program, a bold and unprecedented motorsport masterclass tailored to young Czech racers Filip Nedoma (18) and Miroslav Mikeš (16). The two will race full-time in the 2025 GT Cup Series, each paired with a seasoned pro: Buggyra racers Aliyyah Koloc and Adam Lacko. “Since 2019, Buggyra Academy has been at the forefront of helping young racers, as well as young promising motorsport personnel, advance into professional motorsport,” said Martin Koloc, CEO and team principal of Buggyra ZM Racing. “Simulator training is important, but nothing beats the real competition. We wanted to give our Academy youngsters not just a one-off test or race; we wanted to fully immerse them in the real racing. But it is also a unique and important experience for the whole team, the engineers and mechanics, many of whom are still very young and will benefit from learning from the senior staff. ” The team chose the GT Cup Series specifically because of its competitive yet flexible format, offering the best environment for young drivers to learn under actual race conditions. Each driver pairing will compete as a team, following the official GT Cup regulations, but under the umbrella of the FACE OFF learning structure. To track progress, Buggyra has developed a unique internal points system based on race performance, progress in skills, and even fan votes to determine which of the two youngsters develops most over the season. “However, this is not a championship within a championship,” stresses Buggyra Academy CEO Jan Koubec: “We designed the FACE OFF program to be the most realistic learning environment possible where GT Cup Series rules and regulations fully apply. Our program is all about providing a safe yet competitive learning space for our two young drivers.” The FACE OFF program also includes intensive simulator training at Buggyra’s factory near Prague, and full behind-the-scenes access for the fans. From strategy meetings to race-day emotions, everything will be filmed and shared unfiltered on the team’s YouTube channel (LINK: https://youtu.be/hVH92I9ezPc ). The first race of the GT Cup Series, and thus the official start of the FACE OFF program, will take place at Austria’s Red Bull Ring from May 16–18.
