Let’s go and have a lap with me in the race car” Renault Sport Technologies Tél. : +33 (0)1 76 82 82 00 Z.A. Courtaboeuf Fax. : 33 (0)1 76 82 83 75 14, avenue des Tropiques Internet : www.renault-sport.com 91 978 Courtaboeuf Cedex - France 01.49 In the wet, this car is really enjoyable to drive. We are in the front straight…first corner, I am a slow here in 2 nd gear. You can probably go in 3 rd when it is dry…but for safety, you go in 2 nd . Keep in 2 nd for 3 rd and 4 th corner. Little bit of oversteer on the exit but then there is a blind downhill…very slippery here and then you have to be very careful for this corner in 2 nd gear, it is like you’re coming back. Traction is a problem here on the exit… And then this corner, it is the beginning of the back straight… so you have to be very quick out of there. In the dry you go flat but in the wet, you have to be very careful here, my car is sliding there. 02.40 Another hard braking for this sharp right in 2 nd gear. Another difficult corner here with the traction. More or less, most of the corners are in 2 nd gear because I was trying to be very safe. As you saw there, a little bit of oversteer on the exit…here understeer then oversteer out on the way. This corner, you don’t see the entrance because it is a very tight corner. You have got a couple more corners here, it is like an S before the main straight. Also this right-hander before the main straight, you have to be careful to get the maximum speed as possible. I went a little wide there to try to get more traction. 03.29 And then you have this main straight, as you can see I am taking it very easy at this time. Trying to learn from the other drivers and not getting in their way. There is a hard braking in 2 nd gear again. This was a lap with Roberto Moreno” 03.51 VO: Moreno is a veteran of 42 Formula 1 Grand Prix. He also made his name in American Champ Cars, finishing 3 rd in 2000. Accustomed to Super Touring and Grand Touring cars, the Brazilian should have little trouble finding his way round this high-performance Saloon car. 04.17 ITV Roberto Moreno (In English) “I really wanted to get behind the wheels of a car for a while…Coming to all the races, seeing this great car, I asked my friend at Renault if there was an opportunity…I would take a chance although it has been 3 years since I drove competitively a car. The power of the Renault engine is fantastic and very well balanced with the grip from the Michelin tyres. It is a great category for a Saloon car…it is the best Saloon car I ever driven. I am very pleased with that team and it is now just a matter of doing some laps and getting used to it”. Renault Sport Technologies Tél. : +33 (0)1 76 82 82 00 Z.A.

  • Felix Rosenqvist
    FELIX ROSENQVIST TAKING A SUSTAINABLE VIEW ON MOTORSPORT A multiple title winner and frontrunner in every championship he ever contested, Sweden’s Felix Rosenqvist is one of the most exciting up-and-coming talents in international motorsport. The 2013 campaign saw Rosenqvist engulfed in a dramatic two-way scrap for the prestigious FIA Formula 3 European Championship title, eventually finishing second to Ferrari-backed Italian Raffaele Marciello. Rosenqvist also made history by winning the blue-riband Masters of Formula 3 event – Europe’s most important F3 race – for a second time. Felix Rosenqvist is backed by the official Mercedes- Benz young driver development programme. Following his 2013 achievements, he was ranked among the world’s top 50 drivers – all categories. Rosenqvist was the only Swede included on the list. 2014 sees the pursuit for F3 glory continue, along with expanded testing assignments for Mercedes in Germany’s premier touring car series, the DTM. AGE 22 LIVES Malmö/Värnamo (Sweden) HOBBIES Sports, music, movies CHAMPIONSHIP / TEAM FIA F3 European Championship / Mücke Motorsport CLUB Royal Swedish Automobile Club (KAK) FAVOURITE CIRCUIT Macau (Guia Street Circuit) FELIX ROSENQVIST INTERNATIONAL VOICES ”A laid-back dude outside the car but with an indomitable spirit and spectacular driving style in it. Add to that fantastic racecraft, and here you have a driver who would pretty soon become a Formula 1 fan favourite.” - AUTOSPORT, December 2013 “This guy is just brilliant – dead cool, very talented, very confident. I get blown away by how good he is.” - Peter Windsor, F1 Racing & The Racer’s Edge “An absolute talent.

  • Yokohama Rubber's Support for Motor Sports in 2014
    March 4, 2014 Contact: For immediate release Corporate Communications Dept. Phone: 81-3-5400-4531 Fax: 81-3-5400-4570 Yokohama Rubber’s Support for Motor Sports in 2014 Tokyo – The Yokohama Rubber Co., Ltd., announced today its plans for supporting motor sports events in 2014. Support for motor sports in Japan and overseas is a key element in the improvement and development of tire technology, globalization of the Company’s tire business and helps to raise recognition of the YOKOHAMA tire brand. In addition, participation in motor sports events enables the Company to contribute not only to the motor sports scene but also to the growth, development and revitalization of the automobile industry as a whole. YOKOHAMA looks forward to participating in many events this year. A brief summary of the main events follows. ■ FIA World Touring Car Championship (WTCC) YOKOHAMA has been the FIA WTCC’s official tire supplier since 2006. Since 2010, the Company has supplied the WTCC with its YOKOHAMA ADVAN racing tires, which use the Company’s proprietary orange oil compounding technology to enhance environmental performance while maintaining superior grip performance. Following a contract extension last year, YOKOHAMA is pleased that it will be supplying tires to the WTCC opening race (2013) WTCC through 2015, which will be our relationship’s 10th consecutive year. In 2014, new regulations for the racing cars have led to the introduction of a new car classification, TC1. Cars in this class will feature greater engine power and larger aerodynamic parts, increasing their speed. As a result, TC1 cars will use 18-inch tires with larger widths as well as inner and outer diameters than the previous norm, 17-inch tires, which will be used on TC2 class cars, which are built to previous specifications.
