Engine failures could cancel GP Masters race
A spat of 10 engine failures in the last two days has caused Grand Prix Masters race officials to scramble to rectify the situation or be forced to cancel this weekend's race at Silverstone. A crankcase redesign over the winter results in main crank bearings being starved for oil and the engines are spinning bearings or breaking cranks. The engine builder is scrambling to rectify the engine in order to get 15 cars ready for the race.
