But it was a good race. 02.53 Podium 02.57 GFX Full Page Final Results With Norman Nato putting in the fastest lap, Vandoorne nevertheless led from start – in pole position - to finish in this first race at the Nürburgring.

Courtaboeuf Fax. : 33 (0)1 76 82 83 75 14, avenue des Tropiques Internet : www.renault-sport.com 91 978 Courtaboeuf Cedex - France In 1997, the Korainen brothers started their own business in motor racing. After challenging their national championships, in 2005 they decided to join the Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0. It was a successful switch. Winning both titles with Kevin Korjus in 2010, the Teams championship last season, the Finnish team quickly became one of the reference points in the category… Why? The magic of a brotherly business ? 03.35 ITW Marko Korainen (in English) I cannot explain this… When you work with your brother, sometimes you can make decisions without speaking… You see his face, and you know what is the reaction. It becomes easy to take a good decision together and that’s one of the interesting points… 03.55 VO The team runs four cars in the 2012 Eurocup Formula Renault 2.0 Championship… With 2 Red Bull drivers, another one followed by the Gravity program… So a very ambitious package for the reigning champions… 04.11 ITW Afa Heikkinen (In English) It is never easy, but I prefer that way than the other way around, so, it is our job to keep the Team’s flag as high as possible, but it is not easy, the competition level is so high that you cannot have any guarantee of results, even if you work the best possible. 04.27 VO Born in 1994, 3 rd in the championship last year, behind his team mate Carlos Sainz Jr, the young Russian Daniil Kvyat is the n°1 driver in 2012… He is the most experienced and aims for the title this season… 04.42 ITW Daniil KVYAT # (RUS) (In English) When you are the leading driver of the team, you need to show that you deserve it… And I think I’m showing it right now, so… It’s really good, it’s easier to be sole, unlike last year, when we were fighting and taking points from each other with Carlos for example… And that’s why we probably lost the championship… But this year, I’m more relaxed, in terms of team position, so it’s quite good… For sure, I’m a different person, and driver… I understood all my mistakes from last year and I don’t want to repeat them anymore this year… Renault Sport Technologies Tél. : +33 (0)1 76 82 82 00 Z.A.

Everything needs to fit together and only then you’re able to succeed… 05.54 VO The best need the best and Korainen Bros. team gives the best opportunities to their drivers… Aiming for a new title at the end of the season and offering experience to the rookies who may become potential champions next year… That’s the secret of a success story… 06.10 JINGLE – EUROCUP FORMULA RENAULT 2.0 RACE 2 – Highlights & Interview 06.14 In race two of the Formula Renault 2.0 Eurocup, the track is wet… #7 Stoffel VANDOORNE, winner of the first race here at the Nürburgring, again starts from pole position. But as the cars head into the first corners, #3 Daniil KVYAT and #44 Oliver ROWLAND manage to slip past on the inside into first and second place. 06.29 (((image of cars 27 and 14 going into corner)))) - The going is very difficult, as light rain again makes the choice of tyres very tricky. But there are no major incidents despite the slippery track. 06.33 Further around the track, #44 Oliver ROWLAND pays the price of being a little too adventurous, creating an obstacle for the following cars. 06.39 After a few laps of the safety car, the running is back under way. #8 Mikko PAKARI takes the lead for several laps, with #7 VANDOORNE running second.
