> World Championship race in Donington/England. In the first race, Marco
> Melandri and Leon Haslam made it to the top two positions of the podium.

> What does it all have to do with RTEMS? Optimizing the engine control
> unit behaviour for the race is vital to provide the best performance for
> the driver. BMW therefore developed a high speed data logger to collect
> more than 2MByte/sec of data for performance analysis. This data logger
> is using RTEMS to achive optimum real time behaviour and optimum speed
> during data storage and recovery.
>
> So surely RTEMS on its own did not win the race, but contributed its
> share to the success story. I think this is something we all can be
> proud of.
>
> The next race of the Superbike World championship will take place on 28.
> May in Salt Lake City. We are keeping our fingers crossed for the team
> to win again.

> wkr,
