Renault's Patrick Faure on 6 race engine.....

[GrandView]

"The plan is the end of Formula One," Faure was quoted by the BBC as saying in the Swiss city of Lucerne as the team revealed its new car for the forthcoming season. "We will not stay in the championship with these kind of rules, clearly, none of us."

We can only hope that these are the extreme positions adopted for the start of negotiations.
