Rundingan dengan pengeluar kenderaan Perancis positif

PROTON Holdings Bhd, akan memuktamadkan rundingannya dengan pengeluar kenderaan Perancis, Renault SA bagi pemilikan kepentingan ekuiti dalam pasukan Formula Satu (F1), Renault F1 Team, tidak lama lagi.

Pengarah Urusannya, Datuk Syed Zainal Abidin Syed Mohamed Tahir, berkata rundingan yang sedang berlangsung dalam suasana amat positif itu dijangka menghasilkan sesuatu yang amat menarik kepada PROTON.

" Keputusan pembelian itu akan diumumkan tidak lama lagi kerana PROTON amat serius untuk memiliki pegangan ekuiti dalam Renault F1 Team, dan perbincangan mengenainya pula amat positif.

" Pembelian itu bertujuan mengetengahkan lagi jenama PROTON, khususnya Lotus dalam aktiviti penjenamaan dan pemasaran dunia perlumbaan kereta di seluruh dunia, " katanya pada sidang media selepas sesi taklimat khas mengenai barisan model PROTON yang dipamerkan pada Pameran Motor Antarabangsa Kuala Lumpur 2010 (KLIMS 2010) di Pusat Dagangan Dunia Putra (PWTC), Kuala Lumpur.

Pada pameran itu, PROTON turut mempamerkan lima model kereta konsep dengan rekaan amat menarik menggunakan nama pahlawan Melayu, iaitu Hang Tuah, Hang Jebat, Hang Kasturi, Hang Lekir dan Hang Lekiu.

Kereta konsep berkenaan mencerminkan hala tuju dan kemampuan PROTON dalam industri permotoran yang mana sebahagiannya akan dikomersialkan tidak lama lagi.

Difahamkan, jika pembelian ekuiti dalam Renault F1 Team itu menjadi kenyataan, PROTON bakal muncul pemegang saham kedua terbesar pasukan itu selepas Genii Capital SA, yang memiliki 75 peratus ekuiti, dan pasukan itu akan dijenamakan semula sebagai Lotus-Renault.

Syed Zainal berkata, selepas pembelian itu nanti, PROTON menerusi anak syarikatnya, Group Lotus akan menceburi dunia F1 secara bersendirian.

Dalam perkembangan lain, Syed Zainal berkata, PROTON akan mengadakan rundingan rasmi dengan Perusahaan Otomobil Kedua Sdn Bhd (PERODUA) akhir bulan ini bagi memperhalusi keperluan pembentukan pakatan strategik antara kedua-duanya.

Katanya, rundingan yang akan turut membabitkan pemegang saham utama kedua-dua syarikat itu, serta beberapa agensi kerajaan berkaitan, diadakan susulan siapnya laporan kajian cadangan penggabungan yang dilaksanakan Kementerian Perdagangan Antarabangsa dan Industri (MITI).

Syed Zainal berkata, apabila rundingan rasmi antara PROTON dan PERODUA dimuktamadkan kelak, kedua-dua pihak akan mengemukakan cadangan terbaik untuk dipertimbangkan kerajaan.

Lotus target self-made engine
Wed, 15 Dec 20:30:00 2010

Malaysian-owned sportscar maker Lotus could eventually build their own Formula One engine as well as running a team, Lotus Group CEO Dany Bahar has said.

Bahar said that the engine move, though a long way off, was a logical step for a group who will be Renault's title sponsors next season at the renamed Lotus Renault GP team.


"We have plans underway to think about our own engine family in our road car programmes for the future," he said.

"The fact that we have announced that we will be developing an engine for Indycar for 2012 shows already that we are heavily interested in becoming an engine manufacturer with our own brand."

Renault, who have sold all their stake in a team that will still carry their name, have a three-year deal to supply Lotus Renault GP with engines as well as champions Red Bull and the rival Team Lotus operation.

However the Formula One engine rules are changing, with a 1.6 litre four cylinder turbocharged unit due to be introduced in 2013.

Bahar, heading a young management team whose plans he recognised were "super ambitious and aggressive", hoped to take Lotus into profitability in the next five years with a new multi-car offering linked to various motorsport series.

He said Lotus, whose road cars currently use Toyota engines, saw themselves as "the British Porsche" rather than a Ferrari rival and like the German manufacturer intended to sell and race cars in every sportscar segment.

"We have the capacity, we design engines for other OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) so there is no reason why we should not be able to build and design engines for ourselves," said Bahar.

"I believe on the road car side, the engine is the heart of any sportscar and it is not far away from thinking for us that it would be the right decision to build our own engine for future sportscars.

"This is the first step, having a complete own product - a sportscar with an own engine - and then the rest is a logical consequence."

Bahar, who joined Lotus from Ferrari in 2009 after previously working for Red Bull, recognised that many fans would see him as 'the Bad Guy" in a battle with grid rivals Team Lotus, who competed this year as Lotus Racing.

That team's boss, Malaysian entrepreneur Tony Fernandes, is seeking a ruling in the London High Court over the rights to the Team Lotus name and is also taking legal action against Lotus Group and their owners Proton for terminating a five-year licensing deal.

Bahar expected the matter to be resolved out of court, while saying that earlier attempts to do a deal with Fernandes had foundered due to "ridiculous and absurd" demands.

"If the price would have been right, if some conditions would have been more realistic I believe this would have been the right approach," he added. "So we were not afraid of partnering with Mr Fernandes."

Bahar said the Team Lotus name, created by the late Colin Chapman, should be allowed to rest in peace as a glorious part of Formula One history.

Lotus Group, he said, merely wanted to be recognised as the owner of the Lotus brand with the right to enter any sports activity.

"We don't want other people to call their car a Lotus because the Lotus car is our brand," he said.

"We are not claiming to be Team Lotus or to become Team Lotus. We do not want to become a second Team Lotus, we will never be one."

Boullier: Fernandes fooling F1 fans with 'fake' Lotus

Lotus Renault GP managing director Eric Boullier has hit out at Lotus Racing team principal Tony Fernandes for trying to perpetrate the 'fake' notion that the F1 2010 newcomer has anything to do with the iconic Team Lotus

Eric Boullier has accused his fellow F1 team principal Tony Fernandes of being 'wrong' in his efforts to perpetrate what he calls a 'fake' notion that Lotus Racing is an extension of the iconic Team Lotus that once dominated the sport and conquered the hearts of millions of fans all around the globe.

The ongoing standoff between F1 2010 newcomer Lotus Racing and the team that will soon be rebranded Lotus Renault GP after Proton – the owners of Group Lotus – purchased the remaining 25 per cent of the Renault F1 outfit, remains as unresolved as it has ever been.

The latter's managing director has spoken to Italian website 422race.com to give his take on the embarrassing dispute, and to express his disdain at Fernandes' resilient determination to use the iconic 'Team Lotus' moniker next year, leading to the potentially confusing scenario of two Lotus entries on the F1 2011 starting grid. Boullier insists he is not overly concerned.

“It's difficult to give an opinion on this,” the Frenchman stressed. “There are many people involved in this quarrel. The only thing I know is that Proton decided to invest and to be a sponsor of our team. This makes us the official representative of Lotus. You can try to be called Team Lotus, but at the end there is only one team with the support of Proton and which is therefore representative of Lotus Cars.

“If I can find somebody in England whose name is maybe Richard Ferrari, I can buy the right to use his name – that is how stupid the situation is. It's very bad for the fans, because [Fernandes' Lotus] is fake. Telling the fans about the Lotus heritage and so on is wrong. If you're called Lotus and you're manufacturing cars, then this is the only official name. That's it.”

Assuring that 'nothing will change' either in the management structure or on the commercial side following Proton's arrival since 'Genii [Capital] controls the team', Boullier added that the official renaming will happen in due course before the beginning of the 2011 world championship campaign. He also acknowledged that the Enstone-based operation can gain from the experience and expertise of people like Group Lotus CEO Dany Bahar and sporting director Claudio Berro.

“Sure, we'll benefit as a partner,” he mused. “We actually plan to meet and discuss with them (Group Lotus), but they are currently working with a car manufacturer and they're not in F1. Of course I will be working with them for their experience, but the daily business is run by Genii, not by Lotus Cars. Lotus is just a sponsor and, as the title sponsor, they have the right to be in the team name, as the regulations state – but there will be no commercial change.”

On the topic of the team's second driver for next season, finally, Boullier revealed that there is 'no deadline' and that he is 'not in a hurry' – and insisted he would not be influenced by Bahar's stated desire for Russian rookie Vitaly Petrov to be kept on-board into a second consecutive campaign.

“Again, they are sponsors, they are partners,” he underlined. “They are not deciding who they want. We will keep the driver we believe can bring a full package and a good balance between sporting results and business. It's good if we can match the wish of Dany Bahar, but the decision will be of the team.”

Lotus Renault confirms Petrov for 2 years

The Lotus Renault Grand Prix team announced on Wednesday it has signed Vitaly Petrov for the 2011 and 2012 Formula 1 season. The Russian will partner Robert Kubica at the Enstone-outfit.

Vitaly Petrov was the first Russian Formula 1 driver in 2010 to compete in the sport. Petrov is obviously pleased to see his future in F1 secured for another two seasons. Speaking about the announcement Petrov said: “I am very happy to continue with the team and proud to be representing Lotus Renault GP for the 2011 and 2012 seasons. I learned a lot about the sport, the circuits and the car this year. That will help me improve even more in the future.

“I am very excited about working with this great team once more, and I’m confident that I will deliver. In many ways, 2010 was about learning. 2011 will be about performing. Today, I feel I am ready to rise to this challenge.”
