  • Dossier De Presse 2018 // AVANT-PROPOS
    Dossier de Presse 2018 // AVANT-PROPOS Pour le Groupe Renault et ses collaborateurs, voir Renault tracer à nouveau sa route vers le sommet de la F1 est une immense source de fierté. Le sport automobile fait partie intégrante de notre ADN et des courses de Formula E en ville au rallye jusqu’à la F1, nous y avons toujours obtenu des résultats exceptionnels. Renault Sport Formula One Team vise une répétition de ce formidable passé. 2017 a confirmé que nous sommes sur la bonne voie. Nous sommes une équipe en pleine progression. Nous avons deux pilotes talentueux aux dents longues. Le site d’Enstone est revitalisé et les effectifs ont déjà augmenté de plus de 35 %. À Viry, notre engagement à long terme dans plusieurs disciplines nous permet d’élaborer un vrai projet pour nos infrastructures. Jusqu’ici, nos efforts se sont traduits avec succès en piste. En 2017, nous sommes passés de la neuvième à la sixième place du championnat, sans oublier que nous avons conclu l’année avec la quatrième voiture la plus rapide de la grille. La réussite de notre programme en seulement deux ans témoigne du sérieux du projet établi dès la genèse de l’écurie et du travail accompli par Cyril et l’ensemble des équipes de Renault Sport Racing. Je suis convaincu que notre troisième saison nous rapprochera de notre objectif à long terme : les victoires et la lutte pour les titres mondiaux. Nous sommes également satisfaits des résultats que nous observons en dehors des circuits. Les nouveaux propriétaires de la discipline ont lancé de nombreuses initiatives ayant contribué au développement du sport tout en s’impliquant toujours plus auprès des fans.

  • It Was an Englishman, Louis S. Sanson, Who Designed and Developed the Interlagos Circuit, Which Opened Its Gates in 1940
    It was an Englishman, Louis S. Sanson, who designed and developed the Interlagos circuit, which opened its gates in 1940. The area was sparsely populated at the time, close to the two great water reservoirs of the city (hence the name, ‘between the lakes’) and the plans were quite ambitious including a hotel and a spa. Only the circuit was built but, of course, not in its present configuration. On May 12 1940, the track was inaugurated with 7.900 meters by then. With nearly 15,000 spectators watching, Arthur Nascimento Jr. won the race driving an Alfa Romeo. Our very beloved Chico Landi arrived in second place driving a Maserati. He kept racing at the circuit until his retirement in 1974. The first international race was held in 1947 and the winner, the Italian Achille Varzi also drove an Alfa Romeo, Chico Landi arrived in second place in his Maserati. Thirty-two years after the first race, on March 30, 1972, fifty thousand spectators saw Carlos Reutemann win the first modern Formula 1 race at the Interlagos circuit in Bernie Ecclestone’s Brabham. In the next year, Brazil definitely joined the selected group of countries on the calendar of the FIA Formula 1 World Championship. Many people think that Interlagos made it possible for motorsport to develop in the country offering a world class circuit for the various new categories that needed a home. In 1980, the Brazilian Grand Prix moved to Rio de Janeiro seeking better conditions and there were rumors that Interlagos would be turned into a housing project.

  • Interlagos. More Than 70 Years of History
    INTERLAGOS. MORE THAN 70 YEARS OF HISTORY It was an Englishman, Louis S. Sanson, who designed and developed the Interlagos circuit, which opened its gates in 1940. The area was sparsely populated at the time, close to the two great water reservoirs of the city (hence the name, ‘between the lakes’) and the plans were quite ambitious including a hotel and a spa. Only the circuit was built but, of course, not in its present configuration. On May 12 1940, the track was inaugurated with 7.900 meters by then. With nearly 15,000 spectators watching, Arthur Nascimento Jr. won the race driving an Alfa Romeo. Our very beloved Chico Landi arrived in second place driving a Maserati. He kept racing at the circuit until his retirement in 1974. The first international race was held in 1947 and the winner, the Italian Achille Varzi also drove an Alfa Romeo, Chico Landi arrived in second place in his Maserati. Thirty-two years after the first race, on March 30, 1972, fifty thousand spectators saw Carlos Reutemann win the first modern Formula 1 race at the Interlagos circuit in Bernie Ecclestone’s Brabham. In the next year, Brazil definitely joined the selected group of countries on the calendar of the FIA Formula 1 World Championship. Many people think that Interlagos made it possible for motorsport to develop in the country offering a world class circuit for the various new categories that needed a home. In 1980, the Brazilian Grand Prix moved to Rio de Janeiro seeking better conditions and there were rumors that Interlagos would be turned into a housing project.

    7. El largo y tortuoso camino Cuando el frágil y recalcitrante Motori Moderni se dignó, por una vez, a no romperse, y permitió al Minardi de Adrián Campos completar su última vuelta al circuito de Jerez en el Gran Premio de España de Fórmula 1 de 1987, los (pocos) aficionados españoles que veíamos la carrera desde las tribunas del trazado andaluz lo celebramos como si hubiese ganado la carrera. En realidad, la había concluido en la decimocuarta posición, último de los que la aca- baron rodando en pista, y a cuatro giros del ganador, el Williams- Honda de Nigel Mansell. Pero, después de doce intentos, frustra- dos casi siempre por averías de aquel propulsor que de moderno sólo tenía el nombre, llegar a la meta era toda una victoria para el piloto valenciano, que se convertía de ese modo en el primer español en terminar una carrera del Mundial de Fórmula 1 en una década. Campos se unía así a una muy corta lista que habían iniciado Paco Godia y Alfonso de Portago en los años cincuenta y en la que su predecesor era Emilio de Villota. El madrileño lo había logrado diez años antes, cuando para aspirar siquiera a cruzar bajo la bande- ra a cuadros había que conseguir primero el derecho a tomar parte en la carrera. Algo que no era nada fácil en la segunda mitad de los años setenta, con numerosos equipos privados peleando por hacer- 129 Daniel Ceán-Bermúdez Pérez se sitio en las parrillas de salida de cada Gran Premio. Los intentos de Villota por abrirse paso en aquel Mundial de 1977 fueron uno de los focos de atención en mi temprana afición a la Fórmula 1.
