Quartaro receives his new BMW M5 CS for being the poleman of the season

Yesterday he put on point and end to the 2021 MotoGP season in the GP of the Valencian Community, in the Ricardo Tormo de Cheste circuit. As you know, this year the champions have been Pedro Acosta, Remy Gardner and Fabio Quartararo in the Moto3, Moto2 and MotoGP categories respectively. In addition, this Grand Prix has been very special due to the goodbye of a motorcycling legend, Valentino Rossi.

But leaving all this aside, we could not forget about the BMW M Awards. You already know that for several years, the best classifier of the season in the queen category receives a very special prize. Specifically, he takes home a BMW M, which this year has been a brand new BMW M5 CS.

For the second consecutive year this award has gone to the hands of the French fabio quartararo, who in addition to taking his first world championship has been the driver with the most poles of the season. The pilot received this precious award last Saturday, handing over the keys to Carmelo Ezpeleta, CEO of Dorna Sports, and Franciscus van Meel, CEO of BMW M GmbH.

With five pole positions and 318 points for the BMW M Award classification, Quartararo has been the best "classifier" of the season.

What car does the French driver take specifically? Well, neither more nor less than a BMW M5 CS in color Brands Hatch Gray Metallic. We are talking about a very high performance car. This sedan has under its hood a 8 liter V4.4 with nothing less than 635 CV, being the most powerful car of the company. Among his figures, we can highlight a 0 to 100 in 3,0 seconds, from 0 to 200 in just 10,3 and a top speed limited to 305 km / h.

Many of you already know this, but it is important to remember that it is combined with a transmission 8-speed M Steptronic with Drivelogic and M xDrive system all-wheel drive, which in turn offers a 2WD mode to send all the cavalry to the rear axle. But not only that, being the CS version it has a specific tuning, uses high performance and lightweight materials, with parts in carbon fiber such as the bonnet, the front and rear diffusers, the spoiler or the mirror caps.
