The ING Renault F1 Team confirms its 2009 driver line-up - 5 NOV 2008
The ING Renault F1 Team is pleased to announce that it will field an unchanged line-up next season
with Fernando Alonso signing a two year extension for 2009 and 2010, and Nelson Piquet confirmed
for a further season.
“We are happy to confirm both Fernando and Nelson for next season,” commented Managing Director, Flavio
Briatore. “This gives the ING Renault F1 Team one of the most exciting driver pairings with the perfect blend of
youth and experience. Fernando’s commitment for the next two seasons confirms the faith he has in the team
and we are delighted to continue working with him. He has been a big asset throughout this difficult season and
his leadership and talent, matched with the team’s hard work and determination, have paid off with our recent
performances, which have placed the ING Renault F1 Team back among the top competitors of Formula 1.”
Fernando Alonso commented: “I have decided to stay with the ING Renault F1 team because, as I have often
repeated this season, they have always been my first choice and I feel very happy and comfortable with them.
It’s a very close-knit team with a competitive and winning mentality, and also a relaxed and warm attitude, which
suits me perfectly.”
“After a difficult start to the season, we have overcome our difficulties and constantly improved our
performances,” continued Fernando. “My back-to-back wins in Singapore and Japan, and my recent second place
podium finish in Brazil, have proved how competitive we can be. In the past we have won championships
together, as well as going through tough moments, but we are now determined to show that we can repeat that
success together in the coming seasons.”
Nelson Piquet added: “Obviously I am delighted to have the opportunity to race for the ING Renault F1 Team for
a second year. Although I have had a tough year, I have learned a lot from my rookie season and I will aim to
put that experience to good use next season. I want to thank the team for their support this year and for the
trust they have shown in me for the future. I’m already excited about 2009 and looking forward to working with
the team over the winter so that we can start next season strongly.” |
