2019 Formula 1 Heineken Italian Grand Prix, Sunday PRESS RELEASE 2019/09/08 2019 FORMULA 1 HEINEKEN ITALIAN GRAND PRIX, SUNDAY 2019 Formula 1 Heineken Italian Grand Prix, Sunday Renault F1 Team recorded its best points haul since its return to Formula 1 in 2016 with Daniel Ricciardo finishing fourth and Nico Hülkenberg fifth in the Heineken Italian Grand Prix at Monza. The double top five effort means the team takes home 22 points from Italy, the best return from a Grand Prix weekend since Fernando Alonso’s victory in the 2008 Japanese Grand Prix. For Daniel, fourth place is his best result in Renault colours, while Nico equals his best finish for the team in fifth. Nico made the brighter start at a raucous Monza, passing Daniel on the outside of Turn 2 on the opening lap and later Sebastian Vettel at Turn 4 to hold fourth position. Vettel regained the place soon after before Daniel overtook Nico on the main straight. Both drivers then advanced a position after Vettel’s spin. Nico pitted first on Lap 30 for Medium tyres, with Daniel boxing a lap later for the same compound. From there, Daniel enjoyed a quiet run to the flag with Nico holding on to fifth at the end. Nico Hülkenberg, started P6, finished P5: “I’m very pleased after that result. It feels nice to have a finish like this and hopefully it will bring some momentum for the remaining seven races. The team deserve it as it’s been a tough year for us with some difficult results and moments. It’s a nice reward for everyone involved for the hard work. For me, it was a straightforward race. I made a strong start with two overtakes and managed to hold good track position. From there it was about maintaining that, making no mistakes and keeping calm. I had some pressure at the end but I managed to fend that off. It was largely quiet and controlled and a very good team result with Daniel just ahead!” Daniel Ricciardo, started P5, finished P4: “We deserved that today. It matches my best ever result here in Monza and to do it with Renault is great. I saw the battles happening at the front and I thought there could be a big opportunity to score strong points. I’m really happy for myself and also for the team. To get the team’s best result since returning to Formula 1 in fourth and fifth at a power circuit really complements Renault and their hard work. The race pace was really good and it’s a nice reward for the team. The result is long overdue this year; I’m very satisfied now!” Cyril Abiteboul, Team Principal: “Today’s result is not only the best combined result for the team since its re­entry to Formula 1, but also a demonstration after Montréal and Spa the clear progress of the team and in particular on the power unit side that has been so openly criticised in the past. It is a demonstration that everything is so fluid with a competitive package. It is also an invitation to repeat these types of emotions, when our season has been far from a smooth ride so far. Our drivers have shown what they can do with a competitive car. They have been remarkable all the way through including in tricky situations. This result is good for the team as we also know there are very challenging circuits to come this season where we will be less competitive. But let’s take this for now.” For More Information: Christophe DEVILLE Motorsport Communications campaign Manager +33 (0)1 76 84 64 83 [email protected] GROUPE RENAULT PRESS OFFICE Tel.: +33 (0)1 76 84 63 36 [email protected] Websites: www.media.renault.com ­ www.group.renault.com Follow us on Twitter : @Groupe_Renault PRESS RELEASE 2019/09/08 2019 FORMULA 1 HEINEKEN ITALIAN GRAND PRIX, SUNDAY 2019 Formula 1 Heineken Italian Grand Prix, Sunday Renault F1 Team recorded its best points haul since its return to Formula 1 in 2016 with Daniel Ricciardo finishing fourth and Nico Hülkenberg fifth in the Heineken Italian Grand Prix at Monza.

  • Jules Bianchi, 25, Dies Nine Months After F1 Driver Crashed at Japanese Grand Prix
    Jules Bianchi, 25, dies nine months after F1 driver crashed at Japanese Grand Prix Posted by TBN_News On 07/20/2015 (3 August 1989 – 17 July 2015) Jules Bianchi was a French motor racing driver who drove for Marussia F1 in the FIA Formula One World Championship. Bianchi had previously raced in Formula Renault 3.5, the GP2 Series and Formula Three and was a Ferrari Driver Academy member. He entered Formula One as a practice driver in 2012 for Sahara Force India. In 2013, he made his debut driving for Marussia, finishing 15th in his opening race in Australia and ended the season in 19th position without scoring any points. His best result that year was 13th at the Malaysian Grand Prix. In October 2013, the team confirmed that he would drive for the team the following season. In the 2014 season, he scored both his and the Marussia's first points in Formula One at the Monaco Grand Prix. On 5 October 2014, during the Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka, Bianchi lost control of his Marussia in very wet conditions and collided with a recovery vehicle, suffering a diffuse axonal injury. He underwent emergency surgery and was then placed into an induced coma, and remained comatose until his death on 17 July 2015. Bianchi is the first Formula One driver to be killed as a result of an accident during a Grand Prix since 1994. Bianchi died from his injuries on 17 July 2015, aged 25. His death made him the first Formula One driver to be killed by injuries sustained during a Grand Prix since Ayrton Senna in 1994.

    F1 Digest 2009 – Japan Preview This is F1 Digest 2009 – Japan Preview. After the streets of Singapore, we turn our attention to the circuit at Suzuka. Vital Statistics The Japanese Grand Prix takes place at Suzuka on the 4th October 2009. The track is 5.8 kilometres which eQuates to 53 laps. Kimi Raikkonen holds the lap record, securing a 1:31.540 in 2005. The last race at the circuit was in 2006, when the GP switched to Fuji. Back in ’06, Massa scored pole position with a 1:29.599. The long range weather forecast show rain and showers building up to the weekend, when it may start to dry up. Sunday is supposed to be cloudy but not wet. 2008 in 30 Seconds Last year’s Japanese race at Fuji saw Lewis Hamilton on pole, alongside Kimi Raikkonen. Lewis overshot the first corner, forcing Kimi wide and he received a penalty for it. On the next lap, Massa and Hamilton collided, and the Ferrari was given a penalty. However, Hamilton came off worse, as he ended up towards the back of the field. Massa also had an incident with Sebastien Bourdais, with a controversial penalty for the Toro Rosso. In the end, it was Alonso who was victorious, joined on the podium by Robert Kubica and Kimi. Team by Team We’ll start with McLaren, who are on a bit of a roll from Singapore. It is Hamilton’s first race at this circuit, and he says: "It feels like I've been waiting my whole life to race at Suzuka ‐ so, as you can imagine, I'll be really excited when practice starts there on Friday morning.

Marco Simoncelli and Alvaro Bautista have been the most consistent finishers in the MotoGP 250cc category, each scoring in 13 of the 15 races this year and are first and second in the riders' standings with one race remaining, in Valencia at the end of October. With his third place finish in Malaysia mid-October, seconds behind Bautista at the chequered flag, it was Simoncelli who was crowned the 2008 250cc champion and the Italian celebrated by completing a helmet-less victory lap around the track. Simoncelli has scored five wins to Bautista's four so far this year, but the Italian has consistently finished on the podium. Mid-season he was on devastating form, finishing second to Mika Kallio in France, and then winning the Spanish and German Grands Prix, finishing second in Britain, and third at the Dutch Grand Prix.
