Renault and Total have also chosen to accompany us again in this adventure and we thank them for their valuable contribution. I would like to welcome Lotus Cars, a new ambitious title sponsor with us for the long term. 'We now have 100% ownership of the team, and we're tackling the coming championship with the intention of continuing to do things our way - but always with humility.
