    Press Release OCTOBER 06, 2013 Podium lock out for Renault power in Korean Grand Prix Sebastian Vettel wins Korean Grand Prix for Infiniti Red Bull Racing­Renault, four seconds ahead of Kimi Raikkonen. Lotus F1 Team’s Kimi Raikkonen and Romain Grosjean finish second and third to make podium 100% Renault powered. Third all­Renault powered podium this season. Vettel has led 209 of the past 213 racing laps. Vettel’s win gives him a mathematical chance to seal championship in Japan. Renault­powered drivers locked out the podium in today’s Korean Grand Prix, with Sebastian Vettel (Infiniti Red Bull Racing) winning the chaotic race from Lotus F1 Team’s Kimi Raikkonen and Romain Grosjean. The perfect podium result is the third time this season that the podium has been 100% Renault­powered.* Vettel – whose pole position yesterday took Renault’s total of F1 poles to 208, equal with Ferrari’s record – opened up a comfortable lead at the start ahead of Grosjean, who had jumped ahead of Hamilton on the first corner. The pair built up a cushion of several seconds over the battles behind and were able to pit and rejoin in formation. Vettel remained in front despite two different safety cars but Raikkonen got the jump on Grosjean before the second safety car period. The Finn had a standout race from P9 on the grid, overtaking Rosberg, Hamilton, Alonso, Hulkenberg and finally his team­mate to score his second consecutive podium. Mark Webber started from P13 as a result of a grid penalty but quickly found himself into the top ten racing with Alonso and Raikkonen.

For more than 115 years Renault has embraced the challenge of motorsport in multiple guises. It recognised the value of competitive activities for technical and commercial gain: in December 1898 Louis Renault drove the Type A Voiturette up the steepest street in Paris, the rue Lepic. The first orders for the ground-breaking car with direct drive flooded in. In 1902 the nimble, lightweight Type K, fitted with Renault’s first 4-cylinder engine, took victory in the Paris-Vienna rally. Again, many more cars were sold. Going through the years, in 1977 Renault introduced the first-ever turbocharged car to F1.

Mit umso ehrgeizigeren Zielen geht Audi Sport in die Saison 2016: Die Marke mit der roten Raute hat die Titel in der Fahrer-, Hersteller- und Teamwertung fest im Visier. „Wir hatten im vergangenen Jahr das schnellste Auto“, sagt Dieter Gass, Leiter DTM bei Audi Sport. „In zehn der 18 Rennen hatten wir die Nase vorn und haben damit mehr Rennen gewonnen als unsere beiden Wettbewerber zusammen. Es war schmerzhaft, dass wir am Ende keinen der drei Titel holen konnten. Das wollen wir 2016 ändern.“ Die Technik der DTM-Renntourenwagen ist per Reglement „eingefroren“, deshalb ist der Audi RS 5 DTM gegenüber dem Vorjahr technisch unverändert. Dennoch haben die Ingenieure von Audi Sport am Auto weiter gearbeitet.
