Renault to decide Formula 1 future by end-year
PARIS: French carmaker Renault said on Thursday it would decide by the end of the year whether to stay in Formula 1 following Toyota's exit from the sport.
'You will have to be patient,' Renault Chief Executive Carlos Ghosn told reporters. 'We will make an announcement on our participation in Formula 1before the end of the year.'
Toyota announced on Wednesday it was quitting the sport, less than a year after Japanese rivals Honda pulled out and only days since BMW ran its last race.
Sole tyre supplier Bridgestone has also said it will leave at the end of 2010.
Renault won the 2005 and 2006 championships with Fernando Alonso but the Spaniard has now left for rivals Ferrari. Title sponsor ING has also departed, leaving a big hole in its budget. -Reuters
