Ce enkrat dosezes vse, potem je mozno, da pac dobis obcutek, da se zelis nekoliko povleci. Tega letos nismo doziveli samo pri Michaelu Schumacherju, temvec sedaj tudi pri sportnemu direktorju Renaulta, Patu Symondsu. Po drugem dvojnem naslovu zapored in odhodu Fernanda Alonsa, se zeli sedaj ocitno povleci iz prve linije mostva. Njegov naslednik naj bi bil dosedanji inzenir Fisichelle, Alan Permane. Na zacetku naslednje sezone bo Pat Symonds sicer se prisoten, tako da bi ta menjava potekala brez neprijetnih sunkov.

Nek neimenovani vir iz Renaulta je to novico ze potrdil: "Spremembe znotraj mostva so del planiranega prehoda na sezono 2007, ko bo mostvo nastopilo z novo voznisko zasedbo. K temu je potrebno dodati, da bo Renault svoje motorje dobavljal tudi mostvu Red Bull Racing, kar bo zahtevalo dodatno osebje tako na dirkah kot tudi na testiranjih."

Symonds bo opravljal novo vlogo, ki bo blizu sefa mostva Flavia Briatoreja. Zaradi Permanejevega napredovanja, bodo premesane tudi pozicije na mestih dirkalnih inzenirjev. Vendar se ni odloceno, ali bo nekdanji Alonsov inzenir Rod Nelson v naslednjem letu prestopil k Fisichelli ali pa bo na novo zacel z Heikkijem Kovalainenom.

Nadaljnje spremembe zadevajo se naslednja podrocja: Sef motornega oddelka Denis Chevrier, bo sedaj skrbel za Renault in Red Bull Racing, nekdanji Fisichellin dirkalni inzenir Fabrice Lom pa bo koordiniral osebje ob dirkaliscu. Po mnenju neimenovanega vira naj bi bile te spremembe potrjene tekom zimskega obdobja, v veljavo pa bodo stopile na prvih testiranjih leta 2007.

racING: Dutch bank invests heavily in F1

Posted Nov 14th 2006 5:31PM by Noah Joseph
Dutch financial giant ING is investing heavily in F1 to promote its banking services with the same fast-paced, cutting-edge, dynamic image sought after by every F1 sponsor. However, unlike other companies that start small, ING aims to make a splash that no spectator could miss. There are a number of ways companies can get their name into grand prix racing, and it seems ING has checked all the boxes.

For starters, ING will be the new title sponsor of the reigning world champs Renault, replacing outgoing tobacco company Mild Seven as the French team's principal patron for the next three seasons (at least). That title sponsorship cost Japan Tobacco $60 million for 2006, a sum which was likely exceeded in ING's deal given Renault's back-to-back world titles.

Not enough? ING will also be the title sponsor at the Australian Grand Prix next season, replacing Foster's beer for the next three years. As with the Renault sponsorship, the Melbourne deal will put the bank's moniker in the name of the race: 2007 Formula 1 ING Australian Grand Prix. ING was also rumored to be assuming title sponsorship of the Belgian Grand Prix – the closest race to its home base – to the same effect as its Australian sponsorship, but ING has dismissed this as pure speculation.

Still not enough? The Dutch bankers have also confirmed that they'll be advertising track-side at no less than twelve grands prix next season, including Australia and Belgium plus Malaysia, Spain, Canada, France, Britain, Germany, Hungary, Italy, China and Japan. That means we'll be seeing the world's top drivers whizzing by the ING lion at more races next year than not.

Now there's corporate presence you can take to the bank.
