Renault F1 Team Statement 23.09.09
By Renault F1
September 23 2009
Following the unfortunate recent events, the Renault F1 Team has reacted swiftly by implementing a new temporary management team structure, which will be in place from today until the end of the 2009 season.
The reorganisation is as follows:
Bob Bell, currently Technical Director, takes on the duty of Team Principal and Chief Technical Officer.
Jean-François Caubet, currently Director of Marketing and Communications, takes the role of Managing Director.
They will both report to Bernard Rey, President of the Renault F1 Team.
Bob Bell will attend all the remaining races of the season and will be the team’s spokesperson on all sporting and technical matters.
The Renault F1 Team is now ready to concentrate on the future and wishes to stress that no further comments or statements will be issued relating to the events of Singapore 2008.

The question is, whether they can promote & delegate enough from within, for Bob to take all these roles permanently.
I think we're going to need more skin in the game. But I will be very happy to be proved wrong.
And whatever happens - we're better off without Prost. A truly great driver. Not worth the carpet he's standing on as team principal. Sorry, but there it is.
WDC 1994. WDC 1995. WCC 1995. WDC 2005. WCC 2005. WDC 2006. WCC 2006.
Thank you, Pat.
