The outfit Wolf made its appearance in the world of

motor-racing back in 1976 when the Canadian Walter

Wolf founded the Walter Wolf Racing.
The team took part in four editions of the World
Formula 1 Championship between 1976 and 1979
competing with several drivers among which shine the
names of Jody Scheckter, Jacky Ickx, Chris Amon and
Arturo Merzario.
3 wins, one of which at the debut, 1 pole position, 2
fastest lap of the race, 13 podiums and 79 points are
the figures of that period.
In parallel to the Formula 1 commitment, in 1977 Wolf
built aclosed-wheels Can-Am challenger while in 1978
a Formula 3 single seater was produced in
collaboration with Dallara.

The brand Wolf with its characteristic golden-black

livery made its comeback in 2009, when the Italian
team Avelon Formula, led by Giovanni Bellarosa, after
buying Wolf’s rights, decided to start an innovative
project: the Wolf GB08.
The car, a class CN2 Sport Prototype powered by a 2
liters Honda engine has been produced with high
ambitions aiming to open a new era in the category.

MISANO WORLD CIRCUIT ON APRIL 25 OF 2010
 The track debut took place on the 25th April 2010 at
the Misano World Circuit in occasion of the opening
round of the Italian Prototypes Championship. Ivan
Bellarosa dominated the whole weekend securing the
pole position and getting the first of a long string of
victories. During the season the Wolf GB08 did not
have rivals and in October Bellarosa was crowned
Italian Champion after starting always from the front
row of the grid – three times from the pole – harvesting
two wins, seven second places and three fastest laps
of the race. In the very same month the first
International success was obtained in the Eurosport
Prototypes Series.

In 2011 Wolf GB08 proved to be the car to be beaten in

Europe. The works team Avelon Formula set the pace
in the Speed Euroseries where Ivan Belllarosa got the
title winning all six races in the calendar obtaining 97
out of the 104 points available. Some more success
arrived in the VdeV Proto Endurance Series and in the
Italian Prototypes Championship which boosted the
purchase orders of the Wolf GB08 by teams from all
over the world thanks also to a wide sales network.

 2012 started with yet another challenge, i.e. the 12
Hours of Abu Dhabi, where Ivan Bellarosa set the pole
position and ended the race on the podium together
with his lineup made by Guglielmo Belotti and Denis
Lian. The Speed Euroseries was again the main
commitment of the works team: the Wolf GB08
proved to be unbeatable allowing Ivan Bellarosa to
obtain the second title in a row alongside with the
Teams and Constructors titles. The car confirmed to be
also competitive in endurance races as it obtained a
podium in the 24 hours of Zolder, meanwhile
attracting the attention of VIP drivers like the
drummer of Travis Neil Primerose, that bought a Wolf
GB08 himself.

In in the 2013-2014 period the Wolf GB08 wins the

Portuguese CISP Championship and the Division 2 of
Austrian-German SCC, while the attention of the
factory is geared to the realization of new models to
meet the needs of the American and Asian markets,
starting the production also for hill climb races.
Among the various new models stands the Wolf GB08
F1 and GB08 SM, which gets the FIA Formula 1 2005
homologation.

Wolf to the success in Misano like the
South African did with F1
25TH APRIL 2010 11:29 AM

Ivan Bellarosa like Jody Scheckter. The comparison

may appear irreverent, however to the Avelon Formula
Team’s representative it must be recognized the
honour of having been able to repeat a historical
achievement for the Wolf brand that has come back to
races after years.
Prototypes Italian Championship first test held in the
morning in Misano. Bellarosa has succeeded with the
compared to the Wolf GB08. Bellarosa has taken grey
hair fans back to memories of the Jody Scheckter's
performance when he won the Argentine Gp in 1977
and allowed the entry of WR01 in the Walter Wolf
Racing team, thus gaining great admiration in the
Circus.
The Wolf GB08 is equipped with a carbon fibre frame
and with a 250 horsepower / two litres Honda engine.
Avelon Formula is the Italian structure that produces
this great car upon Wolf Racing Cars mandate, a
property of the American Group Gulf&Partners.

the Wolf is back

Wolf: The beast is out of the cage again !
The beast still bites. No longer in the F.1 Circus where it
hasn’t been running for 31 years, but now among the
Italian Prototypes. No matter where…Seeing the gold,
night dark blue colours win in the race track is always
giving emotion, no matter whether it is Jody
Scheckter or Ivan Bellarosa behind the wheel. in fact it
is the lasting of a dream which inflames! It's a fact that
this historic incendiary sparkle that had been able to
ravage the F1 Circus with its aggressive tale, still goes
on. And it shines with the light tones of nostalgia.
