CHANGING TRACK AS THE LIGHTS WENT OUT IN MELBOURNE IN MARCH, A NEW TECHNICAL ERA OF FORMULA ONE BEGAN. The largest set of rule changes in a generation promises a major shake-up of the competitive order – and, just possibly, the end of Sebastian Vettel and Red Bull Racing’s domination of the sport, a magnificent four-year run which began in 2010. 2014, however, could also see seismic changes in the way Formula One is run. When Bernie Ecclestone, the ringmaster for so many years, stands trial in Germany this April, accused of bribing a former German banker during the period when Formula One was being sold to current majority owners CVC Capital Partners in 2006, the sport will hold its breath. A civil case against Ecclestone in the UK’s High Court has already been dismissed, but not before Judge Guy Newey heavily criticised the 83-year-old. ‘Even making allowances for the lapse of time and Mr. Ecclestone’s age’, Justice Newey concluded, ‘I am afraid that I find it impossible to regard him as a reliable or truthful witness.’ They were damaging words. Ecclestone retains day-to-day control as chief executive but has, temporarily he insists, stepped down from Formula One’s board. He continues to vigorously deny the charge against him. CVC Capital Partners – which, with 35 per cent, continues to be the majority owner of Formula One – is, for the moment, standing by its man. For how long, nobody knows, although the suspicion has long been that there is no executive succession plan in place. If that is so, it is astonishing. Regardless of any legal issues, Ecclestone is now in his ninth decade. The Ecclestone issue has already held up plans to float the sport and, subsequently, CVC’s plans to sell the
6 l BLACK BOOK 2014
remainder of its shares. The feeling is growing that something has to give. Formula One has been a spectacularly successful investment for CVC; through a combination of refinancing, dividends and the sales of stakes to other financial institutions, it has made billions from the sport – billions which would otherwise have remained in Formula One – since buying in eight years ago. And, for all the suggestions that Formula One is awash with cash, the sport could certainly have used that money. A business model where the 11 teams, the star players, received a greater slice of the pie – collectively, they currently receive a shade under US$700 million a year which is distributed via a complex formula rewarding success and longevity – would have eased the burden for teams such as Sauber and Lotus, which raced through 2013 under severe financial pressure. The teams are not blameless. The investable dissolution of the Formula One Teams Association (FOTA) early this year has robbed them of a united voice which just might have yielded a greater say in how the sport is run. Not for the first time, however, Ecclestone – still the master tactician – successfully managed to divide and conquer, offering Ferrari and Red Bull Racing individual commercial deals which
rendered FOTA largely impotent. For 2014, each team has been forced to invest heavily in new technology, part of a series of changes which are designed to bring Formula One more in line with the type of innovations which will ultimately make their way into road cars, but have proved hugely expensive at a time when many teams are feeling the strain. Debate will rage well into 2014 about both the merits of the new technical direction the sport is taking and the results – opinion is already split on the quieter, deeper noise coming from what were once called engines, but are now known as ‘power units’. The wider aim, though, is to attract manufacturers back to the sport – Honda would not be returning to Formula One in 2015 were it not from the switch from V8s to highly efficient V6 turbos. Formula One is far from perfect, but for all the technical and political shenanigans likely to play out over what could be a bumpy year, it remains a wonderfully captivating global circus. This, the ninth annual Black Book, is your guide to the major players – the teams, sponsors and circuits that make it happen. David Cushnan Editor

RED BULL RACING It was a season of utter domination by Sebastian Vettel (below), including a run of nine successive victories to round out the season. Teammate Mark Webber (right) had no answer.
10 l BLACK BOOK 2014
2013 IN REVIEW: THE QUEST FOR FOUR COMPLETED If there remains some doubt about Sebastian Vettel’s place in the pantheon of Formula One, there is no debate whatsoever about Red Bull Racing’s position amongst the very best teams the sport has ever seen. The successful defence of both world championship titles was barely in any doubt in 2013, such was the mix of supreme speed from its Renault-powered RB9, a near-perfect modern-day Formula One driver in Vettel and a rare level of operational excellence. The quadruple double was secured whilst giving the rest of Formula One a sound thrashing. Largely allowed to get on with the business of winning races and titles by Red Bull’s senior hierarchy in Austria, the Milton Keynes-based squad has set the standard in this era, the class of the field in just about every area. In 2013, the team scored 596 points in 19 races, with Vettel alone scoring 360 and doing enough to have
won the constructors’ championship even without the help of team-mate Mark Webber. Both championships were wrapped up in India, with three Grands Prix still to run, and Vettel, just to underline the team’s dominance, won all nine races after the summer break, a record-breaking run which concluded with the 39th victory of his career in Brazil. The German, still only 26, is already fourth in the all-time list for total wins, behind only Michael Schumacher, Alain Prost and Ayrton Senna. Only Schumacher and Juan Manuel Fangio have more world championships to their name. It has been an astonishing period of success, fuelled by a healthy wad of energy drink dollars but masterminded by a triumvirate of talent: team principal Christian Horner, who only turned 40 in 2013 and has been mooted as a potential successor to Bernie Ecclestone; Vettel, the driver of the year by almost any measure; and Adrian Newey, the softly spoken design genius responsible for the RB9 and its predecessors.
VETTEL VERSUS WEBBER Statistically it was a near-perfect season but the numbers fail to tell the human story of what was, at times, a difficult campaign for the champions. A week after Vettel had finished third in the first race of the season in Australia, he found himself behind Webber at the head of the Malaysian Grand Prix. Vettel then defied a team instruction to hold station behind his team-mate, aggressively diving inside the Australian before going on to win the race. Webber, understandably enough, was furious, having been told by the team to turn down his engine on the basis that Vettel was doing the same. The pair had testy exchanges before and during the podium ceremony, with Webber, holding his lip somewhat, noting calmly, if pointedly, that “in the end Seb made his own decisions today and will have protection as usual, and that’s the way it goes”. That was a reference to the pro-Vettel faction in the team led by Red Bull motorsport consultant Helmut Marko, a frequent Webber critic. The incident did nothing to alter the impression that Vettel was the golden boy of the team and Horner’s failure to rein in his champion did little for his own standing as team principal. Like Michael Schumacher before him, the winner himself appeared slightly stunned by the angry reaction in the immediate aftermath, admitting he had made a mistake. Two weeks later, however, when Formula One reconvened in China, Vettel’s stance had shifted and he suggested he would do the same again. “The bottom line is that I was racing, I was faster, I passed him, I won,” he said, memorably. “Being completely honest, I never have support from his side,” continued Vettel, evidently frustrated by the media furore and keen to get a few of his own frustrations about Webber off his chest.
TEAM BY TEAM 2014 / 1
TEAM BY TEAM 2014
“I’ve got a lot of support from the team and I think the team is supporting both of us the same way. I respect him a lot as a racing driver but I think there were more than one occasions in the past where he could have helped the team and he didn’t.”
FINISHING WITH A FLOURISH To some, Vettel’s actions at Sepang were the ruthless mark of a champion; to others the affair underlined the perception that Webber wasn’t being given a fair shot by his own team. Either way, it made for a complicated few weeks. Relations between the two drivers until the end of the year were cordial enough, but never warm: in truth, however, the two never went head-to-head on the track again, Vettel nearly always finding a way to extract more from the car, particularly once the team had figured out how
to make the 2013-specification Pirelli tyres work for them. The Pirelli issue came to a head at Silverstone when a spate of tyre failures caused damage to several cars. Red Bull had been amongst the most vocal critics of the fast-degrading 2013 tyres, lobbying for a change long before it became necessary on safety grounds after the British Grand Prix. The rest of the field barely saw them for dust after that, the harder compound introduced by Pirelli proving much better suited to what was clearly best car on the grid. While Vettel romped to the title, Webber was bringing the curtain down on his 12 years in Formula One. The popular Australian was badly stung by events in Malaysia but insisted his decision to leave had been made prior to that. At Silverstone, in July, he confirmed a five-year agreement with Porsche to race in the World Endurance
Championship (WEC) from next year. A final Formula One victory, however, eluded him, although his final season yielded eight podium places, including three in the final three Grands Prix, and third in the drivers’ world championship. He will be missed, although perhaps not by his team-mate. Vettel’s greatest challenge in the latter part of the year was working out how to silence the pantomime booing which had greeted his arrival on the podium at several races, a legacy of the Malaysia affair. Antics like his celebratory ‘doughnuts’ in India, Abu Dhabi – where he produced a quite brilliant drive to destroy the field – and the USA certainly helped. They were the defining images of a dominant year for a team which didn’t exist until 2005. “It is the quality of opposition that makes it so rewarding,” Horner told the official Formula One website at the end of the season, “and, yes,

what we’ve achieved is in the history books now. “If Red Bull Racing doesn’t do anything else, what we’ve achieved is quite remarkable.”
BUSINESS Winning has become a habit over the past four years for a team which races under an Austrian licence, in deference to its owner, but bases itself in a runof-the-mill industrial estate on the outskirts of Milton Keynes, a run-of-
12 l BLACK BOOK 2014
the-mill town in the UK. There is little of the Formula One glitz and glamour inside, save for the giant, glistening trophy cabinet in the reception area which serves as a reminder to all who work there – and visit – of the way Red Bull Racing has dominated Formula One since 2010. Energy drinks giant Red Bull, at the wish of its founder Dietrich Mateschitz, has invested heavily in the team since it was founded out of the remains of Ford-owned Jaguar in 2005. That forms part of the ever-larger
sum it spends on Formula One – the company also owns Toro Rosso and, in 2014, is investing heavily to bring a Grand Prix to its Red Bull Ring circuit in Austria. Its outlay on its world championship-winning team, however, has fallen in recent years; success has resulted in more prize money and more sponsorship dollars, lessening the strain on its parent. In 2014, Nissan’s luxury car manufacturer Infiniti begins its second season as Red Bull Racing’s title sponsor. It is a relationship which has
TEAM BY TEAM 2014 / 1
TEAM BY TEAM 2014
deepened to include the exploration of new technologies and Infiniti has quickly established itself as one of the most active sponsors in Formula One. The team’s roster of commercial partners below Infiniti is relatively stable: Pepe Jeans, lager brand Singha and footwear company Geox have all been on board for several years, as has watch manufacturer Casio which extended its deal with the team until the end of 2015 in January. Shortly afterwards, Geox extended its agreement for a further season.
In a year of such significant regulation change, however, Red Bull Racing’s most important partner will undoubtedly be its engine supplier, Renault. Indeed, the team’s fate will inevitably be intertwined with that of the French manufacturer, which has built an all-new, highly efficient, highly complex, 1.6 litre turbo power unit to comply with the new rules. Although not a ‘works’ deal in the strict sense of the word the relationship was described as a ‘premium technical co-operation’ when the current
agreement, which runs until 2016, was announced in September 2011. A disastrous first test, in which Renault’s new unit proved so unreliable that the team completed only 21 laps in four days, necessitated a return to the drawing board, although the jury remains out on whether it was simply early teething troubles or an indication that Red Bull’s crown may slip. While Mateschitz, who restricts his rare comments about the team and Formula One to the Austrian press, controls the purse strings from

his rural hideaway, and Red Bull’s motorsport consultant Helmut Marko offers the team counsel from the back of the garage, it is Christian Horner who runs things on a day-to-day basis, as he has done since 2005. As the world championships have been racked up, so Horner’s stature in the paddock has grown; he is comfortable in the spotlight which, as a team principal in the age of blanket coverage of all Formula One race weekends, is a considerable advantage. “The atmosphere in the team is excellent,” Horner said as the new car, the RB10, was launched in January.
14 l BLACK BOOK 2014
“We’ve been riding the crest of a wave over the last four years and there’s a great determination to see that continue in 2014. It’s been the most intense winter we’ve ever had. We’ve produced the car in the shortest possible amount of time and it’s fantastic to see the team operating the way it has.” The rest of the grid has been warned.
SPORTING For the first time since 2009, Red Bull Racing will field a new driver pairing in 2014, with one Australian swapped for another. After Mark Webber’s departure from Formula One was confirmed in July, by the Australian rather than the team, there was a slew of speculation about who would partner Sebastian Vettel this year. Kimi Raikkonen was apparently sounded out, but it quickly boiled down to a straight choice between the two Red Bull-backed youngsters driving for Toro Rosso. A run of excellent qualifying performances and welljudged races quickly swung the balance in favour of Daniel Ricciardo, who has left Jean-Eric Vergne behind and
graduated from Red Bull’s second team to its championship squad. Ricciardo arrives into what is very clearly Vettel’s team. The German is the model of the modern-day Formula One driver: hugely talented, ruthless, intelligent and personable. He has built the team around him, helped in no small part by the unstinting support from Marko and the fact Webber, for all his attributes, was not part of the Red Bull young driver programme which Marko shaped. It will be fascinating to see if the
ONE GOAL. ONE VISION.
INNOVATION FROM RACE TRACK TO CONSUMER FROM FORMULA 1 AND NASCAR TO VIRTUALLY EVERY MAJOR AUTOMOTIVE AND MOTORCYCLE SERIES AROUND THE GLOBE, ALPINESTARS PROVIDES TECHNICALLY ADVANCED PRODUCTS AND UNSURPASSED RACING SUPPORT TO A HOST OF CHAMPIONS, WITH ONE SIMPLE OBJECTIVE - THE DEVELOPMENT OF CLASS-LEADING PROTECTION, APPAREL AND FOOTWEAR FOR ITS CUSTOMERS. HERE, GABRIELE MAZZAROLO, PRESIDENT AND CEO OF ALPINESTARS, SHARES SOME INSIGHTS INTO THE COMPANY AND ITS UNIQUE HERITAGE.
Gabriele, what factors are behind Alpinestars’ successful racing development program? Racing is in the DNA of Alpinestars. Our Racing Services technicians are an ever-present sight in the paddocks of race events around the world, following all major championships and bringing our technical expertise and advanced products to the race track to help our athletes achieve championship-winning performances. Our R&D specialists are constantly developing new technologies for high performance products and we work closely with the best motorsports athletes and teams to derive constant input and feedback, which is invaluable in developing and refining our technically advanced products. This drive is a key factor in Alpinestars being the world’s premier performance motorsport apparel and footwear company. We are, literally, a part of the constant racing development of the most successful drivers and teams. Once Alpinestars products have been proven on racetracks around the globe what happens? We use the relevant technologies that have been tested and refined in the racing programs to enhance the products we put into production, ensuring that our customers receive the same performance benefits and technology as the professionals. Absolutely everything we develop and test at the track, such as ergonomics, anatomical profiling, material construction and weight-saving, is aimed at giving better technology to the customer, and this is what keeps our products ahead in terms of innovation. What challenges do you face in Formula 1, one of the most demanding motorsports?
With the limited space in the cockpit and the extremes the driver’s body is subjected to, the challenge for us is to consistently find new ways of maximizing performance and reducing weight, while ensuring comfort and safety. Another challenge is the extensive testing our products undergo in our laboratory to ensure that, beside reaching the homologation standards set by the FIA and SFI in the USA, they offer long-lasting performance when used by consumers. Our product research, design and development ensures we are incorporating the very latest material and construction technologies and this means we are able to offer the athletes we work with – from Red Bull Racing, Lotus F1 and Sahara Force India in Formula 1 to Hendrick Motorsports in NASCAR – a vital competitive edge by reducing the extremes of physical stress and fatigue for the drivers, particularly important when concentration during races is so vital to human performance. Alpinestars now has extensive R&D facilities in Italy and Los Angeles but how important is your company’s heritage in motocross and road racing? Each form of motorsport, at its highest level, is extremely competitive. We have been part of motocross since the inception of the company in the ‘60s and then MotoGP racing, and this translated very well when we entered auto racing product development. It was in the earliest days that we cultivated our relationship-building with the top athletes, which is a key philosophy that continues today. Also, motorcycle racing has given us a unique insight into the fit ergonomics and athlete performance factors in motorsport and a number of our technologies, such as pre-shaped construction, which optimizes fit in the relevant riding or driving position, strategic stretch technology allowing better control and comfort, were evolved for
two wheels but have since been adapted for use in our automotive development program. Your brand logo is world renowned, can you explain your company’s mission statement, ‘One goal. One vision.’ The phrase refers to how top racers and Alpinestars think alike. We spend so much time with our top athletes and we really share their way of seeing things. Any top athlete constantly trains, prepares and studies how to do things better, this is part of their daily life and they work on this constantly. Alpinestars has this same exact mentality. “One goal. One vision.” was introduced many years ago in a series of adverts where we showed our top racers and described what they were thinking (Mick Doohan, Jeremy McGrath and Colin McRae at the time), saying that the athlete and Alpinestars shared the same goal and same vision to achieve it. This is really how the entire company is today; all our people share the same vision - to be the best in what we do and constantly looking ahead to new targets.

dynamic within the team changes given that Ricciardo has been brought through by Red Bull and not drafted in from elsewhere. He is clearly quick but untested in front-running machinery, with all the additional pressures that brings. Webber, for one, believes his compatriot will out-qualify Vettel at half the races, but it would be hard to find anyone who believes Ricciardo can beat the world champion over a full season. Vettel, rightly, begins the year as favourite to win what would be a fifth successive world title. He is the benchmark. The RB10 certainly looks the part in a year of unusual-looking Formula One cars, but the disastrous first test in Jerez was a real setback. The team’s push for the 2013 championship may have hampered its preparations for 2014. “We put a lot into the
16 l BLACK BOOK 2014
development of RB9 through June, July and September and inevitably that meant compromises,” Newey said as the car was launched. “We only have limited recourses and while we were developing RB9 it meant that work wasn’t going into RB10. However, we felt we needed to do that to try to win the championship and then handle the pressure of timescales that resulted from that. I think time really has been our biggest battle. We haven’t had the time we would have liked to do the research on the background before committing to the fundamental hardware of monocoque and gearbox case.” There are two reasons for Red Bull not to become complacent, even after monopolising the titles for four years. First, the major regulation changes are effectively a reset for the whole grid, which could wipe
out the team’s technical advantage – although any outfit that employs Adrian Newey should never, ever be discounted. The second issue which may have a longer-term effect on the team’s competitiveness is the loss of several personnel who have worked underneath chief technical officer Newey for several years and who have predictably been courted by rival teams. Most notably, aerodynamicist Peter Prodromou has agreed a deal to join McLaren, although Red Bull intend to hold him to his contract until the last possible moment. The team has predictably played down such departures, claiming they are merely examples of the constant ebb and flow of engineers in Formula One, but it will be as keen to avoid letting too many senior figures leave as it will to stay right where it is: at the summit of the sport.

MERCEDES Lewis Hamilton (right), pictured at the Belgian Grand Prix, settled into his new team well in 2013, but it was the last year in charge of Mercedes for Ross Brawn (below).
20 l BLACK BOOK 2014
2013 IN REVIEW: MAKING THE NEXT STEP Despite its scruffy end to the 2012 season, Mercedes had the look of a team ready to make a championship push at the start of 2013. Lewis Hamilton’s arrival was a stirring force and there were high hopes for the W04, a car on which work had begun early in order to gain as much of an advantage as possible. So good were Red Bull that, in the end, the title challenge didn’t really materialise but second place in the constructors’ championship, confirmed at the final race of the year in Brazil, was well deserved and an indication of the team’s progress. Indeed, Mercedes reduced its deficit to Red Bull Racing from 318 to 236 points year on year, scoring 218 more than it achieved on the way to fifth place in 2012. There were three wins for the team to cheer in 2013, a fine drive from Nico Rosberg in Monaco perhaps the highlight, and nine podiums in total. Rosberg, written off by some before the season began but a match for Hamilton throughout the year, took four of those, adding victory
at Silverstone to his Monte Carlo triumph, plus a second place in India and third in Abu Dhabi. Hamilton, who arrived from McLaren in a blaze of publicity, took five: a terrific win in Hungary, plus third places in Malaysia, China, Canada and Belgium. The W04 was certainly quick, as eight pole positions during the season demonstrated, but it retained the habit of recent Mercedes cars of eating up its tyres quicker than most, leaving Rosberg and Hamilton falling back through the pack in the early stages of races. At the Spanish Grand Prix in May a thoroughly bemused Rosberg started on pole but finished fifth, such was the team’s inability to get on top of the Pirellis.
TESTING TIMES In the days after the Spanish Grand Prix, Rosberg and Hamilton took part in a test organised by Pirelli in Barcelona, a fact which only came to light two weeks later in Monaco. Rival teams were furious at what they interpreted to be a clear advantage gleaned by the Brackley-based team, arguing that at the very least they should have been invited to have observers present throughout. Pirelli, already facing intensifying criticism about the level of tyre degradation it had engineered into its product for 2013, also became embroiled in the controversy after a formal protest by Red Bull and Ferrari. The case went to an FIA Tribunal in June, which decided Mercedes was to be barred from July’s young driver test, a session which took on more relevance when race drivers were allowed to take part after the multiple tyre failures at the British Grand Prix prompted a safety rethink. Quite how advantageous the three-day Barcelona test was for Mercedes will never be clear, although Rosberg controlled the race in Monaco, but, given the
relatively lenient punishment, it was hard to see it as anything other than an admirable piece of loophole-seeking by team principal Ross Brawn.
POWER SHIFT Despite a much-improved season, Brawn’s own position in the team he has led since Mercedes took control in 2010 was also under scrutiny for much of the year. Over the winter, Mercedes recruited Toto Wolff to run its motorsport division and installed another Austrian, three-time world champion Niki Lauda, as nonexecutive chairman. Both men received shares in the team, Wolff acquiring 30 per cent and Lauda 10 per cent. It appeared to be a power shift away from Brawn, a sense which strengthened when the German manufacturer hired McLaren technical director Paddy Lowe in June. Officially, Lowe was appointed to the role of executive technical director but the plan, openly talked of by the team, was for there to be a gradual handover of power, with Lowe ultimately taking over from Brawn as team principal. However, the timeframe, if there ever was one, was never revealed and the team’s strong performance, especially in the middle part of the season, then seemed to derail the original programme entirely. Efforts to keep Brawn, apparently undecided about his own future, kicked in. Amidst all the speculation the topheavy management got through the season without too much friction, at least to the public eye, with the focus very much on the battle to keep Ferrari at bay once it became clear Red Bull Racing were away and clear for the world championship. By the end of the year, Lauda for one was insistent that Brawn must stay, but less than a week after the final race of the year the team confirmed that the Englishman was leaving.

The background noise did not seem to affect the team’s performance, although there were no podium finishes in the final two races. “Our progress is the first fruits of the technical team we began building two years ago and I am optimistic that the trend of progress will continue in 2014,” a quietly pleased Brawn said, immediately after second place in the championship was secured, although he will not be around to see it.
There are few Formula One driver pairings as strong as Rosberg and Hamilton and both men showed well throughout the season, despite the inconsistencies of the car. Hamilton played himself into his new team well, although his mood tended to fluctuate by the weekend, while Rosberg was impressive in the way he handled the arrival of another illustrious partner, after experiencing Michael Schumacher for the past three seasons. Perhaps tellingly, however, Hamilton had
outscored his German team-mate by 18 by the time the points were tallied for the final time. Although Red Bull Racing provide daunting opposition, the overall impression at the end of 2013 is that Mercedes is a team on the up. The ingredients – strong financial support from Stuttgart, a talented driver line-up and technical team, plus, critically for 2014, its own engine division – are all in place. In 2013, it came closer than ever to getting the recipe just right.

BUSINESS A quiet air of confidence surrounds the Mercedes team as the new Formula One season looms. The combination of a well-funded operation stacked with technical talent, one of the best driver line-ups on the grid, an engine which is expected to be the class of the field and a very positive first test at Jerez, has
made the team several observersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; early world championship favourites. There is a feeling that the team has been building up to 2014 for some time, keen to use its resources to take advantage of the sweeping rule changes. Even the departure of Ross Brawn, who stepped down after months of speculation at the end of December, has failed to halt the
momentum, despite the fact that the team will undoubtedly be weaker for his absence. Brawn, who confirmed his retirement from Formula One at a fishing event in January, was unwilling to stay at the team he has helped mould since selling Brawn GP to the German car manufacturer at the end of the victorious 2009 season. The
Englishman has not been directly replaced. Instead Toto Wolff, who was installed last year as Mercedes’ head of motorsport and has a small equity stake in the team, will handle the commercial and political side of the job, while Paddy Lowe, recruited from McLaren early last year, will have responsibility for sporting and technical matters. If there was one too
many cook in the kitchen last season, it remains to be seen what impact the loss of the head chef will have. Wolff is a natural fit as a frontman; Lowe, while clearly technically gifted, is untested as a public-facing team leader. Mercedes believes a single team principal is an outdated management model.

Stuttgart, the team has a stable group of commercial partners. Petronas is beginning its fifth year as title sponsor. The Malaysian oil giant, a longtime title sponsor of the Malaysian Grand Prix, has been a team partner since its debut in 2010. Other key partners are Allianz, watchmaker IWC Schaffhausen, energy drink Monster, Puma and hotel group Starwood, while in February 2013 Mercedes unveiled a three-year partnership with BlackBerry. One change this season will be the addition of Swissquote logos to the car’s livery. The financial services company completed its buyout of existing Mercedes partner MIG Bank in September. The most recent set of results published by the UK Formula One arm of Mercedes’ business revealed a UK£31.5 million after-tax loss in 2012 – operating costs of UK£151 million against revenue of UK£115 million. The team also added 86 staff to make a total of 612. A larger slice of Formula One’s annual prize fund, as a result of the 2013 performance, will be welcomed by the finance departments in the UK and Germany. As far as the bigger picture is concerned, the question of whether Formula One participation results in the sale of more Mercedes cars is, as ever, virtually impossible to answer. Daimler, Mercedes’ parent company, appears in rude financial health, however. Net profits were up from €6.8 billion in

2012 to €8.7 billion in 2013. Global sales also rose from 2.2 million in 2012 to 2.35 million in 2013. How much of that can be attributed to the likes of Hamilton and Rosberg is up for debate, but Mercedes is confident enough to have signed up to the sport, after some of the usual Formula One political shenanigans, until 2020. It is clearly in for the long haul and last year’s competitive showing saw the
24 l BLACK BOOK 2014
team become Red Bull Racing’s closest challenger – albeit some distance behind. In terms of personnel and technical resources, Mercedes been gearing up for 2014 for several years, the thinking being that the swathe of new technical regulations allows the best chance yet to usurp Formula One’s dominant team. That brings with it a certain amount of internal expectation: the team may deny it but anything less
than a world championship would be a disappointing return from a season in which so much has been invested.
SPORTING Despite a front wing failure causing Lewis Hamilton to crash on the first day of testing, Mercedes ended the first session in Jerez early in February as the happiest of all the teams. The W04 chassis and the all-new Mercedes power unit developed at Brixworth, the British village where Mercedes High Performance Engines is based, ran reliably and looks set to be competitive right from the off. “The team has done a fantastic job on each aspect of the project,” Lowe said after that first test. “We have hit our milestones and also our own internal targets. The car is an elegant response to the new regulations but also an aggressive design and, as is often the way, its beauty is much more than skin deep; the internal engineering is extremely innovative and intelligent.”

The team’s technical leadership is stacked with talent, even in Brawn’s absence. Alongside Lowe, the likes of Aldo Costa, Bob Bell, Geoff Willis and Rob Thomas possess vast experience of building Formula One cars – many of them have been winners. It is, on paper at least, a formidable line-up. As the soothsayers have tried to identify who might be competitive, it has often been suggested over the winter that Mercedes and Ferrari, the two teams which build their own cars and engines, may be at a distinct advantage given the complex integration process the new rules have thrown up. Wolff offered a cautious response to that suggestion in February but added that Mercedes’ role as an engine supplier to Sahara Force India and Williams may
26 l BLACK BOOK 2014
be advantageous. “It certainly helps in terms of the data we can exchange,” he said. “Of course, at the end of the day we are all competitors on track so naturally there is a certain amount of information that is not shared, but the more miles the power unit completes, the better our knowledge will be in terms of identifying issues and improving reliability.” As Lowe pointed out, reliability, especially in the early 2014 races, will be as critical as engine performance. “We are breaking new ground with a number of the technologies in the car but they are of little use if we do not make it to the finish line at each race,” he noted. Whatever the other challenges, Mercedes need not worry about its drivers. In Lewis Hamilton and Nico
Rosberg it has two very capable race winners. The Englishman, the world champion in 2008, and the German, winner of two races in 2013 including the Monaco Grand Prix, work well with each other, Hamilton having settled in well last year after his dramatic switch from McLaren. Given a competitive car, it would not take too big a leap of imagination to see either as world champion by the end of the year. “You need the most talented drivers not only in terms of speed, but also intelligence,” Wolff said as testing began. “Driving these cars is not like jumping in any other racing machine; you need to know how to use all of their potential. There’s no doubt that our rivals have strong partnerships, but I wouldn’t want to change ours.”
FERRARI Ferrari bade farewell to Felipe Massa (right) at the end of 2013 after eight seasons. For team principal Stefano Domenicali and president Luca Di Montezemolo (below), another year without a title made for a stressful season.
2013 IN REVIEW: FALLING SHORT AGAIN Had Felipe Massa not received a drivethrough penalty whilst challenging for a podium finish at the final race of the season in Brazil, Ferrari could well have ended the season second in the constructors’ world championship and not third, again. Even if it had overhauled Mercedes, however, 2013 would still have gone down as a deeply disappointing season for the most famous team in Formula One. Financially, Ferrari can comfortably handle the blow of finishing a place lower than in 2012 – it enjoys financial perks over other teams as a result of its history and perceived importance to the sport – but, in terms of pride, it was a sour end to a season which had promised much in its early stages. Fernando Alonso won two of the first five races and by May had established himself, once again, as the man most likely to dethrone Sebastian Vettel. When Red Bull Racing pushed on, however, Ferrari was unable to go with it, a state of affairs which left the team frustrated and with tensions bubbling to the
surface as the season wore on. Every year that Ferrari fails to win titles the pressure on Stefano Domenicali ratchets up a notch or two. It is now five years since the Scuderia won a championship of any sort and six since it won the drivers’ title. The team principal, a popular paddock figure, looked understandably weary as the season reached its end, although in a significant mid-season move he did persuade James Allison, Lotus’s talented technical director, to move to Maranello. Allison’s contribution will start to be felt next season. Extensive renovation work on the team’s windtunnel had also concluded by the end of the year, albeit too late to have any impact on the performance of the F138. “The assessment of the season just ended cannot be positive,” Domenicali said, summing up after the Brazilian Grand Prix, “because after a competitive start, we had a second half that did not live up to our standards. He added, however: “I think all the decisions we have taken and the changes we made are taking us in the right direction to tackle next season in the best way possible.”
MID-SEASON STRUGGLES The F138, a better car than its predecessor but not one that will be particularly fondly remembered at Maranello, was certainly reliable, another Ferrari trend of recent years. Felipe Massa, in his eighth season with the team, retired from two races, crashing out in Monaco and spinning off in the early stages of the German Grand Prix. Alonso had just one non-finish, skittling out of the second race of the season in Malaysia when his front wing, damaged in a brush with Vettel’s Red Bull on the opening lap, gave way; it was a mistake to not
28 l BLACK BOOK 2014
TEAM BY TEAM 2014 / 1
TEAM BY TEAM 2014
to pit for a replacement. Alonso was also involved in a skirmish on the first lap in India, while a Drag Reduction System (DRS) problem delayed him in Bahrain. Elsewhere, however, he was at his brilliant best at the start of races, frequently making up positions off the line – Singapore and an audacious move around the outside of Kimi Raikkonen and Lewis Hamilton in Barcelona were the standouts. Indeed, Alonso did nothing to damage his status as one of the greats in 2013, although he will be more keenly aware than anyone of the march of time: his last championship was in 2006 and it is now four seasons at Ferrari without
a title. His campaign didn’t quite hit the heights of 2012 – one of the best Formula One seasons ever driven – but still there were nine podiums and two wins, in China and at home in Spain. Massa, who finished eighth in the championship, some 130 points behind Alonso, delivered just one podium finish, a third place in Spain. It was to prove his last for Ferrari, for in September the Brazilian announced he would be leaving, the team electing against extending his contract. Shortly afterwards, Ferrari confirmed it had re-signed Kimi Raikkonen for 2014 and 2015, the Finn rejoining a team he left in 2009.
DRIVER DILEMMAS The circumstances which led up to the change of driver were pure Ferrari. By mid-season, Alonso, the team’s darling since arriving in 2010, had become increasingly frustrated by its failure to keep pace with other frontrunners, notably Red Bull. After finishing fifth in Hungary he was asked by reporters what he would like for his upcoming birthday and dryly replied, “Someone else’s car.” The remark drew a swift public rebuke from Ferrari president Luca di Montezemolo, published on the official Ferrari website. Alonso’s comments, the team stated, ‘did not go down well
BLACK BOOK 2014 l 29
Fernando Alonso makes a pit-stop during last year’s Hungarian Grand Prix weekend (left). Like every team, Ferrari’s 2014 testing programme was interrupted by spells of unreliability (right)
with Montezemolo, nor with anyone in the team’. The Spaniard, it can be assumed, was less than impressed. The suspicion is that Montezemolo then turned to Raikkonen for 2014, partly as a way to underline to Alonso that no man is greater than the team. It has resulted in an enticing 2014 driver pairing for the neutral, but Alonso is likely to find life with Raikkonen rather less comfortable than he has grown used to with the amenable Massa. Commercially, even if its anonymous ‘Horse Whisperer’ column dismissed an Autosport report of a US$250 million budget as “largely fantasy” in November, Ferrari is still amongst the best-resourced teams in the pit-lane, not least due to its ability to attract and retain sponsors even in a difficult economic climate. The team added its first Chinese partner, Weichai Power, at the start of the year, along with logistics giant UPS. “We have basically renewed with all our major sponsors, major partners so we have quite a solid base of partners that are really investing with us and of course they are with us because there is a win-win situation,” Domenicali said in Brazil, midway through November. “Maybe Ferrari has different options to exploit with the partners, for sure, but I think that in general, in a situation where there is this economic crisis, it is important not to devalue too much the sale of what you have, if you can, of course.”
30 l BLACK BOOK 2014
Ferrari may not be feeling the financial pinch, but, as ever, it makes it its business to keep a keen eye on the overall health of the sport and, where necessary, make its voice heard above all others.
BUSINESS Ferrari goes into every Formula One season under pressure to win the world championship, so to not have even been in contention last season came as a real blow to the proud Italian team and its legion of followers around the world, not least after so much preseason positivity. The return of a former Ferrari world champion – indeed, the last man to win a title in red – will only heighten the expectation in 2014; there isn’t a better, nor more experienced, driver pairing on the grid this year than Kimi Raikkonen and Fernando Alonso. Raikkonen, in fact, is now the eldest driver in the sport. “I’m confident because we have a strong team,” Ferrari president Luca di Montezemolo said in January, just to ratchet up the pressure another notch or two. “I think we have all the ingredients to be successful. We have two very strong drivers. I’m pleased to have Kimi back because he is the last driver to win the championship with us. And Fernando has made a fantastic season, achieving second place in [three of ] the last four years. Now it’s time to win.”
In the wider world, Ferrari produced fewer cars in 2013 than in 2012 – 6,922 in total, 5.4 per cent down on 2012 – but revenues rose by five per cent to €2.3 billion. The company recorded net profits in excess of €246 million. The company’s global retail, licensing and e-commerce operation has continued its expansion – in November the latest of over 50 Ferrari stores around the world was opened in Kuwait City – making the Prancing Horse accessible to a group who could never afford a car, but probably can stretch to a cap. The Ferrari Formula One team has always run in parallel to the road car operation, rather than as a mere marketing initiative, dating back to the days of founder Enzo Ferrari. The brand’s prestige and history still mark Ferrari out as special, as do the incentives pushed its way by Formula One Management, which well understands the importance of the Italian marque to the sport. Ferrari knows its place, too: usually through Di Montezemolo, who has been involved since the 1970s and president since 1991, it is not shy of stating its viewpoint on the major political, regulatory or financial issues facing the sport. Ferrari’s biggest commercial sponsorship, rather strangely, continues to come from a company whose branding is not allowed on the car. No Marlboro logos have appeared since 2008, but in 2011 Philip Morris International agreed a deal believed to be worth US$160 million per year until 2015. Although the tobacco giant does not have its own presence, Ferrari changed its racing logo in 2010 to one which bears resemblance to that of Marlboro. Elsewhere, Santander is on board until 2017, UPS signed what is believed to be a three-year contract in February 2013 and Weichai Power, the team’s first Chinese sponsor, is under contract until 2016 after joining last season.

oil and fuel supplier Shell are the other companies at sponsor level, along with Ferrari parent Fiat. Despite its occasional protestations about the size of its budget, Ferrari has always been, and remains, amongst the best-funded teams in Formula One.
SPORTING There has been investment across the board as Ferrari tries to end a run of six seasons without a drivers’ world title – the team won the 2008 constructors’ championship, but Felipe Massa missed out on that year’s drivers’ title by a whisker. New personnel, most notably James Allison as technical director, have arrived; facilities
32 l BLACK BOOK 2014
and systems have been upgraded at Maranello, the team’s famous headquarters; and a Ferrari world champion has been re-signed. The odds would have been long on Kimi Raikkonen ever returning to Ferrari after the team effectively bought him out of his sizeable contract at the end of the 2009 season, to create room for the arrival of Fernando Alonso. Raikkonen spent the next two seasons competing in rallying before making his Formula One comeback with Lotus in 2012. Despite a competitive car, the British team’s precarious financial health was enough to convince Raikkonen that a return to the team for whom he drove for three seasons was the way to go.
Raikkonen versus Alonso, ice versus fire, is a tantalising prospect. Although some have understandably predicted fireworks – at the very least, Ferrari must adjust its philosophy of having one lead driver and one supporting act, given that Raikkonen is unlikely to cede anything to his new team-mate – neither man has achieved what he has without possessing a good dollop of common sense. Both are now elder statesmen of the grid, too – Raikkonen is 34, Alonso a couple of years younger. As for who will come out on top, opinion is split. If the car is up to it, though, both drivers – already greats of the sport – should be considered contenders for another championship. Ferrari recruited James Allison from Lotus as technical director last year and the Englishman has overseen final preparation work on the F14-T – named by the fans in an online vote, as part of Ferrari’s expanding digital strategy – in recent months. “It’s been very, very difficult and the difficulty doesn’t stop at the start of the season,” Allison said in January. “I’m lucky to have arrived here at Ferrari at the end of a period of very heavy investment in the tools that we have in the factory – there’s been a big investment in the windtunnel, a big investment in all of the dynos that we used for developing the engine. That investment is going to see Ferrari set fair to prosper in the coming

period, as long as we, the engineers, work well to make the most of the opportunities we’ve been given with the investment that’s been made.” As one of the three engine manufacturers on the grid, Ferrari, which is also supplying Sauber and Marussia with its all-new turbo power units this year, has also been
re-investing in an engine department which was scaled down when the last set of regulations, which largely froze engine development, kicked in. “2014 sees us for the first time in many years have free development of an engine from a clean sheet of paper and, for sure, that’s going to bring a level of variation of power between the various

2013 IN REVIEW: CHALLENGING TIMES In the words of team principal Eric Boullier, Lotus’ 2013 performance was a “commendable improvement” on its efforts in 2012, but there was still a hint of disappointment that the team failed to meet its pre-season goal of making the top three. Given the increasing concern over its finances, however, it was a more than solid effort to score 315 points from 19 races, up from the 303 from 20 Grands Prix in 2012, and end the season with the second-fastest car – albeit some way behind the allconquering Red Bull Racing. “We may have fallen just short of that target,” Boullier said, “but it has certainly not been through a lack of effort.” Despite one victory and 14 podiums, behind the scenes it was a decidedly uncomfortable year for the Enstone-based team that was once Benetton, then Renault and, since 2012, has carried the Lotus name. Reports of cash flow problems gained greater weight as the season progressed. On at least one occasion, staff salaries were late and there were several personnel changes, including the key departures of highly rated technical director James Allison, to Ferrari, and chief commercial officer Steve Curnow, to Sahara Force India. Genii Capital, the Luxembourgbased firm run by technology entrepreneur Gerard Lopez, acquired the team from Renault in 2010 and has been largely funding it ever since a major title sponsorship agreement with Group Lotus, which at one stage was set to involve equity in the team changing hands, ended prematurely. The team now uses the Lotus name, which still has a certain historic resonance in Formula One, under licence. Lopez, through Genii, spent much of this year making up the team’s sponsorship shortfall – despite valiant
efforts it has thus far failed to secure a replacement title sponsor – while also searching for a minority investor to help ease the burden. Despite impressive performances on the track – Kimi Raikkonen’s win at the opening race in Melbourne was followed by a spate of early-season podiums – cash flow was reportedly a major issue.
A QUANTUM LEAP Salvation, it seemed, arrived in June, in the form of a consortium known as Infinity Racing Partners – a name subsequently changed to Quantum to avoid a confusing clash with Red Bull Racing’s title sponsor, Infiniti. Announced by Lotus, Infinity/ Quantum agreed to acquire 35 per cent for an estimated €120 million, valuing the team at some €400 million. The group included ‘an American hedge fund manager, an Abu Dhabibased multinational business group and royal family interest of a major oil producing nation’. The frontman quickly emerged as investment banker Mansoor Ijaz. Hours after the deal was announced, the colourful Ijaz gave a remarkable interview to SportsPro in which he confidently declared: “We’ll be number one in 12 months. I say it simply, flatly, completely – we’ll be number one in 12 months.” He added: “We have enormous technological capabilities that we can bring and we’re going to make Lotus the number one team for sponsorship within the next year. “I will basically bring my global network to bear on the business of our Formula One team and just make it the best team in Formula One.” It was certainly bold talk but, as the season ended in Brazil six months later, the money had yet to arrive, despite continuing promises from the stillprominent Ijaz, who explained away

the delay by blaming international banking processes. Boullier, the frontman for the team, was placed in a particularly difficult position, forced to bat away questions that really should have been aimed at his paymasters. An increasingly sceptical Formula One paddock was also left in limbo, with the entire driver market for 2014 stalled as Lotus, in increasing difficult financial times, refused to name Ferrari-bound Raikkonen’s replacement until it knew whether it required a driver with sponsorship. The usually placid Raikkonen had brought the team’s financial difficulties to the surface weeks earlier at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. The Finn appeared to have accepted that the team’s priority had to be paying the salaries of its 500 staff up to the point he was shouted and sworn at on the radio during the Indian Grand Prix, when the crew felt he was holding up team-mate Romain Grosjean. A week later, in the Middle East, a frustrated Raikkonen confirmed the long-suspected rumour that he hadn’t been paid all year. With a €8 million base salary and a €50,000 bonus per point – the superbly consistent Raikkonen had scored 183 – the amount owed had reportedly risen to around €17.15 million by the time he broke his silence.
RAIKKONEN MAKES HIS EXIT Perhaps not entirely unexpectedly, Abu Dhabi was the last time Raikkonen was seen all season after he elected to miss the final two races for early back surgery ahead of his return to Ferrari. It was a sour way for a terrific two-year partnership, which worked well for both parties, to have concluded. Just as he had been in his comeback year, 2012, Raikkonen was outstanding for large parts of the season, taking advantage of how kind the Lotus E21 was to its tyres in the first few months to record four podiums in the first five races. The Finn scored in every race until Belgium in August, but he was

future, a state of affairs almost unimaginable 12 months ago. After courting Michael Schumacher and considering the unfortunate Davide Valsecchi, the team’s nominated reserve driver who was overlooked when opportunity knocked, Lotus opted for the experienced Heikki Kovalainen as Raikkonen’s replacement for the final races in the USA and Brazil. The Finn was unable to help the team beat either Mercedes or Ferrari in the championship, failing to score at both events. also well matched for much of the year by the vastly improved Grosjean. The 27-year-old Frenchman, who became a father for the first time in 2013, was by some distance the most improved driver on the grid. Gone was the rash decision-maker of 2012, replaced by a calm, mature driver who now appears well qualified to lead Lotus in Raikkonen’s absence. His drives in Germany and particularly Japan, where he took the fight to the Red Bulls single-handedly, were quite superb. After a relatively quiet start to the season, certainly compared to Raikkonen, he came into his own midway through the year. Six podiums were his reward and, assuming Lotus somehow resolves its financial difficulties and can remain competitive in a new era, he looks a likely Grand Prix winner in the not-too-distant
BUSINESS The Lotus team – or Team Enstone, as it is sometimes referred to given that the British team based in the Oxfordshire town of Enstone was once Benetton and then Renault, before taking the Lotus name in 2012 – enters the 2014 season somewhat rocked by the departure of team principal Eric Boullier, who defected to McLaren with the new year only a few weeks old. Becoming racing director at one of the most famous teams in Formula One was probably an opportunity too good to turn down for the Frenchman, but his decision to leave only served to underline the precarious position in which Lotus finds itself. After battling through much-publicised cash flow problems last year – Kimi Raikkonen
went unpaid for large parts of the season and the company reportedly failed to make payroll on one occasion – it is believed that around 80 team members have sought employment elsewhere. Boullier and technical director James Allison, who moved to Ferrari last season, are merely the headline departures. There was no confirmation about Boullier’s replacement as team principal as the second test of the winter began in mid-February – Lotus elected to miss the first session in Spain – despite a bizarre January press release which said Gerard Lopez, the technology entrepreneur who owns the team through his Genii Capital investment firm, would be taking on the role. Lopez, who has no experience of frontline Formula One, seemed to have come to his senses somewhat a few weeks later, with the appointment of Argentinian Federico Gestaldi as deputy team principal. Behind the scenes, property developer Andrew Ruhan, who is believed to have bought a minor stake in the team last year, has a growing influence. Alongside Lopez, he is co-chairman of the team and has also become a partner in Genii Capital. “In addition to being a savvy investor and a fine strategist with an impressive proprietary deals track record,” said Lopez, “Andy shares our passion for excellence and is results oriented.” Matthew Carter, a business associate of Ruhan’s, replaces Patrick Louis as the team’s chief executive, and is another who lacks any direct experience of Formula One. The team has debts believed to amount to as much as US$160 million, although much of that is believed to be owed to Genii. An equity and investment deal with a mysterious consortium known as Quantum seems to have fizzled out, but it is believed that 10 per cent of the team was sold to the parent company of Russian mobile phone brand Yotaphone over the winter. Yotaphone will sponsor the team, sharing space on
the car – decked out in black and gold, the colours of Lotus which licenses the use of its name to the team – with PDVSA, the Venezuelan state-owned oil company which is funding Pastor Maldonado’s place on the grid. Oddly, for a team generally perceived to be living through difficult financial times, the Lotus E22’s livery is full of corporate partners; Unilever, through its Clear and Rexona brands, and The Coca-Cola Company, through energy drink Burn, remain on board for 2014, while Saxo Bank has become an official business partner this season. “Lotus F1 Team has never stood still and we head into what promises to be an exciting 2014 season with an innovative new car, new partners and a new management structure at Enstone,” said Lopez in summary. “Great things have been achieved over
the past years and we need to continue this momentum.” Finishing fourth last season was impressive; after a winter of upheaval, repeating the trick in 2014 would be even more meritorious.
SPORTING
Team owner Gerard Lopez (below) tried and failed to secure new investment throughout 2013, as the team’s financial struggles were played out in the media.
The Lotus E22 was the last of the 2014 Formula One cars to be seen in the flesh, making a brief February appearance at a filming day in Jerez before a full debut at the second official test session of the year in Bahrain. That was despite the best efforts of the team’s PR division, which seemed to attempt to ambush the online launch of the new McLaren – the team, of course, which had tempted Boullier away – by releasing a rendering of its own new and rather unique-looking challenger at the same time.

The distinctive nose of the E22 (right) appeared in testing at the Bahrain International Circuit in February, but, despite the arrival of Pastor Maldonado (below), Lotus endured a troubled winter.
Pastor Maldonado arrives at Lotus looking for a fresh start after an unhappy final season with Williams, the team which brought him into the sport. He is at the team primarily for his association with PDVSA, a company whose red corporate colours are prominent on the new car, and was clearly pegged as second choice for the seat by a management who openly courted the sponsor-free Nico Hulkenberg before plumping for Maldonado and his millions.
38 l BLACK BOOK 2014
The Venezuelan has been cast as the archetypal modern-day pay driver but he is a Grand Prix winner and is undoubtedly quick, if a little hotheaded at times. Romain Grosjean remains at the team he joined in 2012 but finds himself without the support of his manager and, at times during that difficult first season, chief cheerleader Boullier. The 2013 Grosjean, however, was a very different animal to the previous season’s version. Assuming his
new car is competitive, Grosjean can be placed alongside Daniel Ricciardo and Kevin Magnussen as prime candidates to be Formula One’s next new winner. With Allison now ensconced at Maranello, Nick Chester has stepped into the technical director role. Although the team has certainly been significantly weakened since last year, Chester has plenty of experience of how the Enstone operation works: he was formerly engineering director for Lotus and before that was head of performance systems when the team was called Renault. “Our development programme has been ongoing for over two years and it has been illuminating watching it grow,” Chester said of the E22 in January. “The backbone of Enstone is strong and we are relishing the challenge of the new season ahead.” Of the new rules, he added: “We think we have a very good solution to the challenge. There are certain concepts from the E21 which are still valid for the E22, but in particular our development methodology and synchronisation with our various simulations is especially relevant and promising.” Lotus has, in recent times, produced some of Formula One’s most

2013 IN REVIEW: AN ABJECT YEAR Quite simply, 2013 was the worst season in McLaren’s history. For the first time since 1980 the British team failed to score even one podium finish, slumping to fifth in the constructors’ championship. Its fall was even more remarkable given the way it had finished 2012, with two victories and a car that was faster even than the championshipwinning Red Bull. However, the key technical decision for 2013, which was
made around the same time, proved to be flawed: for the final year before the sweeping regulation updates for 2014, McLaren elected to take a risk and make extensive changes. The result was a car that was well off the pace when winter testing began. If anything, the performance in Melbourne at the opening race of the year was even worse. It must have been a shock to the system for a team used to contesting for victories to be mired down in 10th and 15th places on the grid and to finish the race in 9th
and 11th. For a team with McLaren’s resources and budget, it was also nowhere near good enough. McLaren is a team in transition. The dynamics of its relationship with Mercedes changed in 2013 when it was forced to pay for a supply of engines for the first time, having previously been the German manufacturer’s de facto ‘works’ partner. Indeed, in May McLaren confirmed a seven-year engine agreement with Honda, set to begin at the start of 2015, which will bring to an end its 19-year stint with Mercedes.

TEAM BY TEAM 2014 / 1
The team’s marketers will be licking their lips at the prospect of the revival of a partnership which yielded three world championships and 44 victories between 1988 and 1992, but in the interim the team has been facing the less-than-ideal situation of working out its contract with Mercedes, a company understandably less than keen to give McLaren, or Honda, any more information than absolutely necessary.
VODAFONE EXITS As the team struggled on track – the best result of the season coming in Brazil when Jenson Button drove an excellent race from outside the top ten
to fourth – there were other significant changes happening behind the scenes. Before the season began, telecommunications firm Vodafone, which has injected some US$75 million into the team annually since 2007, announced that it would make 2013 its last year as title sponsor as part of a corporate reset. Despite an initial announcement from McLaren that its new title partner would be revealed on 2nd December, no news was forthcoming as the year ended. The team’s commercial portfolio in general remains strong: in 2013 there was a new regional deal with Gillette, a renewal with watchmaker Tag Heuer, a new Group-wide commercial partnership with YouTube and the arrival of Mexico’s Claro, which followed Sergio Perez to the team. The McLaren Group, with a burgeoning road car division, and offshoot projects such as the animated series Tooned, is in good financial shape, although Formula One revenues will take a hit as a result of the team slipping from 3rd to 5th in the championship. The MP4-29 will not be remembered fondly, if at all, but at least it did have rock-solid reliability, setting a new record for the percentage of the year’s total distance completed at 99.17 per cent. It was, though, little
consolation for a team with much grander ambitions. “We’ve been off the pace a second and a half during the season,” said team principal Martin Whitmarsh, a man who wore a haunted expression for much of the year, in November, “which means that we were six months behind – so we took the development effort back in Woking and focused on next year.” The early switch to 2014 happened without Paddy Lowe, a long-time servant to McLaren who left his position as technical director in June to take up an initially vague executive role at Mercedes, part of a transition with Ross Brawn. Tim Goss, another McLaren servant, has replaced Lowe as the team’s most senior technical executive. By the end of the year, McLaren had pulled off a coup by luring Red Bull senior aerodynamicist Peter Prodromou to the team. He will join once his current contract has concluded.
PEREZ ARRIVES – THEN LEAVES Lowe, the key cog in McLaren’s complex matrix-like technical setup, followed Lewis Hamilton from McLaren to Mercedes. Given the difference in performance between his old team and his new one, Hamilton,

least, will be with the team in 2014 as it strives to get back to where it should be.
Jenson Button (right) will be the most experienced driver on the grid in 2014, but his McLaren MP4-29 (below) still lacked a title sponsor as the year began.
BUSINESS
the 2008 world champion, made the right decision. In his place, alongside Jenson Button, came Perez, highly rated after a superb season with Sauber in 2013. The Mexican would certainly not have expected to score 17 fewer points in his first McLaren season than he had for the Swiss midfielders a year earlier. Guilty at times of trying too hard, Perez was ticked off by the team for an over-aggressive approach to racing Button during the Bahrain Grand Prix. The 24-year-old calmed down somewhat as the season progressed but, despite matching his more experienced team-mate on occasion, was never able to produce a genuine standout performance with the car he was given. McLaren, perhaps sensing it acted a touch prematurely in signing Perez when Hamilton announced he was leaving in October 2012, then
44 l BLACK BOOK 2014
prevaricated over whether to retain the new man for 2014, eventually deciding in November that it would be promoting 21-year-old Dane Kevin Magnussen from its young driver programme in his place. The team, having signed Perez with great fanfare, hardly covered itself in glory with the way it handled the situation, leaving the Mexican little time to find alternative employment in Formula One. Button, meanwhile, became the most experienced British driver of all time when he started his 247th Grand Prix in Brazil but, despite outscoring his new team-mate by a comfortable 24 points over the season, the Englishman hardly had a stellar year in 2013. Without a competitive car, Button found himself in the midfield for large parts of the championship and it was no surprise that his motivation took a hit. He, at
Assuming 2013 was its nadir, the least McLaren will be aiming for is a significant improvement in performance this season. 2014, however, will be another transitional year for the British outfit, with major personnel and technical changes either underway or on the horizon. No Formula One team can afford to write off a season entirely, but it is not unreasonable to suggest that throughout the next few months McLaren will have at least one eye on 2015, when it will begin working with the returning Honda. The changing dynamics of its relationship with Mercedes as a long and successful partnership winds down this year will be fascinating: in a vital year for engine development the German manufacturer will be keen to limit its transfer of information to the team, lest it end up with Honda. The impending arrival of the Japanese manufacturer, however, is not the biggest change at McLaren as 2014 begins. After weeks of speculation and months of growing tension, Ron Dennis, the man who made McLaren what it is today, won a long-running boardroom battle and has returned to the front line. Dennis, who stepped away from Formula One in 2009 and has spent recent years moulding and executing the company’s ambitious road car strategy as chairman of McLaren Group, confirmed his comeback as group chief executive midway through January. That role had been held by Martin Whitmarsh, McLaren’s Formula One team principal since Dennis’ move upstairs. In what was, by all accounts, a rousing address to staff at the McLaren Technology Centre, the company’s magnificent base near the British town of Woking, Dennis reportedly told his team that the identity of their new dayto-day boss would be revealed before the start of the season.
TEAM BY TEAM 2014 / 1

Whitmarsh, it seems, has paid the price for presiding over McLaren’s horror year; by mid-February, his departure from the company had not been formally announced, but was considered inevitable, especially when McLaren confirmed the appointment of Eric Boullier as racing director at the end of January. Boullier, an impressive leader in difficult circumstances at Lotus over the past three years, will work alongside chief operating officer Jonathan Neale. Neale will also fill the position of McLaren Racing chief executive on a temporary basis until a permanent appointment is made. It is certainly a dramatic change for the team and one which is designed to set it back on the right track after a fallow period; its last drivers’ championship was in 2008, its last constructors’ title was 16 years ago. The new management structure will inevitably take time to find its feet, however, with Boullier only starting work in early February.
After Vodafone’s decision, announced early in 2013, not to renew its title sponsorship of McLaren beyond the end of last season, the team has so far not found a replacement, despite many rumours of potential
deals. Although it can call on strong corporate support from the likes of ExxonMobil, SAP, Johnnie Walker, Hugo Boss, Tag Heuer, and a newly extended partnership with Santander, the apparent lack of success in
Hopes are high for Danish youngester Kevin Magnussen (below right) but it is the return of Ron Dennis (left) as group chief executive which will have the biggest impact on the team.

securing a title partner is telling. If and when it does happen, a novel new agreement with Norton Rose Fulbright, announced in January, should ensure at least that the legal costs are covered. Commercial backing from Honda is on the way, too, so despite the noticeable lack of logos on the all-silver new car, McLaren’s Formula One team remains in a very healthy financial position. All it needs now are results.
SPORTING The belief within at least certain sections of McLaren’s management team is that in Kevin Magnussen they have moulded the most exciting young driver to join Formula One since they guided Lewis Hamilton into the sport in 2007. Expectations are therefore high for the 21-year-old son of Jan Magnussen, who raced for McLaren at the 1995 Pacific Grand Prix as a replacement for appendicitis victim Mika Hakkinen, and then for Stewart
48 l BLACK BOOK 2014
Grand Prix in 1996 and 1997. If Sergio Perez, who was backed only by certain sections of the team’s management, can consider himself unfortunate to have been dropped, Magnussen is certainly a welcome addition to the grid. The winner of last season’s Formula Renault 3.5 series, he impressed the team greatly with his performance during July’s Formula One test at Silverstone, but only moved into contention for a race seat with the team after attempts by Whitmarsh to place him in one of the smaller teams had failed as internal concerns over Perez’s longterm potential grew. It is a risk to take Magnussen on, but a calculated one. Jenson Button, meanwhile, is now the most experienced driver in the field but he begins the season under a cloud following the sudden death of his father John, a much-loved member of the Formula One paddock over the past decade, in January. 34-year-old Button – of the class of 2014 only Kimi Raikkonen is older –
has firmly established himself in the McLaren family since joining the team in 2010 and begins his fifth season in silver as he did his fourth: expected to show the way to a talented younger team-mate. Technically, McLaren is in the middle of reshaping itself following the departure of Paddy Lowe, the most senior technical manager in the company, to Mercedes last year. “There’s a responsibility to move the organisation – and our processes – forwards,” was how Neale put it at the start of the year. “We’ll be doing just that during 2014: pushing ahead with an incredible amount of effort, analysis and commitment on the racetrack, but also making changes away from the track that will reap a greater dividend in the long term. “There’s a huge amount of talent and potential already extant within the organisation, but there’s always more to discover,” Neale continued. “And we’ve made some very important key additions who’ll have a significant

input into our future momentum – we’re incredibly pleased and excited to have hired the likes of Peter Prodromou and Dan Fallows, both from Red Bull Racing, and Ettore Griffini and Ciaron
Pilbeam from Lotus, as well as more than a dozen top-level engineers from among the best teams in Formula One, all of whom have seen the capacity and potential that exists at McLaren.
Nonetheless, this is a long-term process, and this year will be about developing and growing McLaren to a position where we can once again fight at the front.”

SAHARA FORCE INDIA Sahara Force India finished sixth in the world championship in 2013. At many races, including the Italian Grand Prix (above) in September, it was in the thick of the midfield.
50 l BLACK BOOK 2014
2013 IN REVIEW: UP ONE TO SIXTH Force India – despite Sahara’s considerable investment the team’s official name, Sahara Force India, has yet to stick – came out on top in a well-fought battle with Sauber for sixth in the constructors’ championship, one place higher than it managed in 2012.
Indeed, at one stage in the early part of the season it looked as though the Silverstone-based team, which races with an Indian licence, might topple McLaren, only for its challenge to fall away somewhat after Pirelli’s midseason tyre changes. “We’ve finished in the top six twice in the last three seasons, consolidating our reputation as being the best non-
manufacturer team,” observed Robert Fernley, a man underserved by his deputy team principal job title given how often he finds himself in day-today control in the absence of team principal and majority owner Vijay Mallya, at the end of the year. “Looking back on the season as a whole I think we can be proud of our performance. The start of the year was
TEAM BY TEAM 2014 / 1
TEAM BY TEAM 2014
exceptional and we recaptured our form in the final few races.” Going into the 2013 season there had been some vague talk of what impact the various problems being encountered by both Mallya’s UB Group and Sahara might have upon the Formula One team’s financial health, but Force India appeared in solid shape, buoyed by the early-season competitiveness of the VJM06. Sahara India Pariwar holds 42.5 per cent of the team, a share it acquired with the promise of US$100 million investment
in October 2011, with Mallya holding the same amount and the remaining 15 per cent still in the hands of the Dutch Mol family, a legacy of when the team was known as Spyker. TW Steel, one of the more active Formula One sponsors, switched from Lotus to become official watch before the start of the season, adding another commercial string to Force India’s bow. In March, weeks after the start of the season, Mallya was able to tie up a renewal with Mercedes for 2014 onwards, an expansion of the deal
the team has had since 2009 which will see the German manufacturer supply engine units and the rest of the powertrain from 2014. Force India had been courting Ferrari, but elected to stick with what it knew ahead of a sweeping regulatory change.
TYRE CHANGES On the track, meanwhile, the team started 2013 superbly, with Adrian Sutil starring at the opening race in Australia and taking a well-earned

Team principal Vijay Mallya does not attend every race, but his influence on the team remains strong and he made the difficult decision to dispense with Paul Di Resta’s (below) services at the end of 2013.
fifth place in Monaco, and Paul Di Resta finishing an excellent fourth in Bahrain after running in the top three for much of the race. A seventh and ninth place at Silverstone was a good result at Force India’s home race, but the British round was the turning point of its season. A quick comparison of the team’s points hauls before and after Pirelli introduced its new tyre compound, in the wake of the multiple failures at the British Grand Prix, painted a stark picture. In the eight races before the switch, Force India scored 59 points – an average of 7.38 per race. In the seven races afterwards, it scored just three. From challenging McLaren, the team
suddenly had to look over its shoulder for a Sauber team whose performance was transformed positively by the Pirelli change. “The change in the tyres for Silverstone has been more than just detrimental to us,” Mallya said, with no little frustration, at the team’s other home Grand Prix in India in late October. “Within the mechanical design of the car it’s proving very difficult for us to get optimum tyre performance.” By the end of the season, the team’s technical chiefs, led by technical director Andrew Green, had got to grips with the problem, although much of his efforts had already switched, as with most technical directors in the pit-lane, to working on 2014’s complex regulation changes.
A WELL-MATCHED PAIR After a year on the sidelines, partly as a result of a conviction for assault which saw him receive an 18-month suspended custodial sentence, German Adrian Sutil returned to the team for whom he drove between 2007 and 2011. It was a rather last-minute call-up, with Force India running Sutil and Frenchman Jules Bianchi in testing before settling on the more experienced man. Sutil made a super return, leading several laps during the Australian Grand Prix on his way to seventh place.
52 l BLACK BOOK 2014
The 30-year-old is a safe pair of hands, solid but largely unspectacular as a career record of 109 starts and no podiums shows, and although he was a touch on the over-aggressive side on a couple of occasions in wheel-to-wheel combat he was a good match for Di Resta throughout the year. It was the Scot who had the better set of results, however, finishing the season 19 points ahead. Di Resta had an up-and-down third year with Force India, one which ended with him facing the Formula One exit door. He had a very strong start to the season, finishing in the points in seven of the first eight races, but his form tailed off as the tyre switch hindered the team. Immediately after the summer break, Di Resta suffered a terrible run of four races, failing to finish each one. Worse, a first-lap accident in Italy, a late-race crash in Singapore and a sloppy spin in Korea were all put down to driver error. It was terrible timing for a driver who had been considered in the frame for a 2014 move to a bigger team early in the year. Without significant financial backing and with speculation rife that Force India would turn elsewhere, his 11th-place finish in the Brazilian Grand Prix may turn out to have been his final Formula One drive.
BUSINESS On paper, Sahara Force India looks in good shape as the 2014 world championship begins. A solid team with a decent budget which has proved it can produce competitive cars in recent years has an exciting new driver line-up in place. The aim for an outfit owned by Indian entrepreneur but with a British core is to improve on the sixth-place finish it achieved in the world championship in 2013. “We’ve got to aim higher than last year,” said team principal Vijay Mallya as the striking new car was released in January. “It’s an ambitious goal, but I believe it’s a realistic one because we have to look forward and take the fight to the teams ahead of us.”

In a year of technical stability it would be hard to make a logical argument for how Force India could improve on its 2013 performance – it would, after all, mean beating one of Red Bull, Mercedes, Ferrari, Lotus and McLaren – but in the first season of the biggest rule changes in a generation, anything is possible. In March 2013, the team confirmed a new long-term agreement to use Mercedes-Benz engines in 2014 and beyond. Having considered its options, and flirted with Ferrari, Force India chose to continue and expand a partnership which began in 2009. As with all customer teams, the cost of the new engines – Mercedes was believed to be offering a supply deal for around €17 million – is a big cost item going
into the season. The early indications that the German manufacturer’s power unit looks to be the most reliable and competitive will have come as a relief. The team’s crop of commercial partners has, in recent years, been dominated by Mallya-controlled brands from India, from his Kingfisher airline and lager to various spirits brands. That is gradually changing. A glance at the 2014 car shows Kingfisher and Sahara, which bought into the team in 2011, still prominent, but new partners with no affiliation to the owners have begun to appear. Mexican telco Claro predictably signed a multi-year partnership after Sergio Perez signed for the team in December, while a new multi-year partnership with lubricant and oil specialist
Roshfrans, another Mexican firm, was unveiled in January. The car will also feature the logos of Astana, the capital of Kazakhstan, this year, in a deal linked to the signing of Spaniard Daniel Juncadella, who has a personal agreement with Astana’s promotional arm, as a reserve driver. While Mallya dips in and out of races, the team is run by deputy team principal Robert Fernley and chief operating officer Otmar Szafnauer. It is a solid pairing. “We’ve had a fruitful winter,” Szafnauer said in January, “helped by the fact that we deployed all of our resources early towards developing the 2014 car. That may have impacted on our performance in 2013, but I think it was the right decision.”
A new dawn in 2014: there was plenty of interest in the front of the new Sahara Force India when it was launched at testing in Jerez midway through January.
BLACK BOOK 2014 l 53
The team’s driver line-up promises much with Sergio Perez (left) joining the team from McLaren and Nico Hulkenberg (right) returning after a year with Sauber. Early testing of the VJM07 (below) was promising.
Even after the first test session of the new year in Spain, midway through January, no clear pecking order had emerged, with teams still getting to grips with the complex new cars and engines. It makes pre-season predictions more foolish than ever. Mallya, however, believes his squad is as prepared as it can be. “The rule changes have presented us with a huge challenge,” he said, “but I’m very proud of the approach we have taken and the direction of the technical team. I always enjoy seeing a Formula One car come to life, but I can’t remember so much anticipation ahead of a new season.”
SPORTING Force India stole a march on the rest of Formula One by becoming the first team to release a rendering of its new car early in January. The real thing was unveiled just over a week later, featuring, as with several teams, what might best be described as a protruding element beyond the nose, to comply with the badly worded new regulations. The car’s new livery, with a dollop of
54 l BLACK BOOK 2014
black added to the usual orange, green and white, goes at least some way to limiting the aesthetic damage. “Apart from the obvious, it doesn’t look hugely different,” said technical director Andrew Green in January, “but it is; almost every single part is a new design, from the front wing right back to the diffuser. Its genetics still lie in the 2013 car, but we’ve had to
achieve the same results in a slightly different way. The nose is a standout but from the nose backwards it looks quite similar. It’s a little bit ‘fatter’ for the increased cooling requirements, but we hope to trim that out during the early part of the season. “To be competitive we have to develop and because there are so many areas that need significantly refining,

optimising the performance of this car is going to be a big challenge.” In a significant technical change, described as “an added complication” by Szafnauer, the team has switched from McLaren gearboxes to a Mercedes system for 2014. “Eventually having the engine, gearbox and the entire powertrain come from the same source will benefit us and Mercedes,” Szafnauer explained. “Brackley is only seven miles away from our factory at Silverstone and that helps if changes need to be made or if there are upgrades. But the benefits are more than just logistical and the fact that the power unit and gearbox come

from the same source will help. It’s a better solution.” For his part, Green calls the power unit “the biggest change I’ve witnessed in the sport since I started in 1990.” It is all change on the driver front, too, with Perez, rescued after being dropped by McLaren late in 2013, partnering Nico Hulkenberg. Both are exciting prospects, although Perez remains somewhat unpolished. The team is delighted at Hulkenberg’s return after a year with Sauber and if the German can consider himself unlucky not to have been signed by one of Formula One’s traditional heavyweights,
the clean sheet of paper offered by the new rules may be to his advantage. Calm, collected and quick, he should have the measure over the more inconsistent Perez over the season. “My philosophy has always been to choose drivers based on their speed and ability to perform,” said Mallya, who moved quickly to hire Perez after he was dropped by McLaren and has acquired two new Mexican partners as a result. “As a combination we thought they would make a strong pairing. Nico will be a good benchmark for Sergio, and vice versa, and they will bring out the best in each other.”

SAUBER The start of 2013 was a struggle but, thanks in no small part to the efforts of Nico Hulkenberg (above), Sauber rallied in the second half the year.
58 l BLACK BOOK 2014
2013 IN REVIEW: SWEET AND SOUR Hopes were high that Sauber, fresh from comfortably its most competitive season since BMW’s exit at the end of 2009, could kick on and continue the upward curve in 2013. Nico Hulkenberg was certainly convinced, the highly rated German jumping ship from Force India in the belief that the perennial Swiss midfielders were a better bet.
Hulkenberg must have been a worried man in the early stages of the season when it became clear that Sauber had slipped dramatically down the pecking order: where in 2012 it had been challenging for podium finishes, in the early part of 2013 it was struggling even to get close to the points. “At the start of the year, we were underperforming massively,” admitted Tom McCullough, Sauber’s head of track engineering, “but we could see
that, even when the car wasn’t working we still weren’t too far away in lap-time terms. Because the midfield was so tight, though, we just weren’t scoring points.” As Force India’s good progress was halted by Pirelli’s change of tyre compounds, Sauber found it had the opposite effect, with the C32 suddenly becoming a top ten challenger from the Hungarian Grand Prix onwards. It was a remarkable change, allowing Sauber to end the season with 57 points, just six of
in in Hungary. And from then on things did develop. It didn’t materialise right away into points, but we could see that we were getting more and more competitive and closing the gap to the teams ahead of us. Then the points kicked in.” All this happened as Sauber also lost its chief designer to McLaren halfway through the year, with Matt Morris leaving Switzerland for his homeland to become the British team’s new engineering director. As has become customary, Sauber promoted from within, giving the role to head of concept design Eric Gandelin. He formed part of a ‘flat’ technical leadership in the second half of the year, a group also including head of vehicle performance Ben Waterhouse, McCullough and head of aerodynamics Willem Toet.
TRICKY FINANCIAL TIMES The real backdrop to Sauber’s season, however, was formed by its attempts to secure its long-term future. As the championship got underway, it emerged that the team was beset by serious financial problems. The ever-impressive Kaltenborn was open about the need to secure long-term funding, even making the admission that several suppliers had not been

paid on time. Like Lotus later in the season, Sauber’s financial difficulties seemed to play out in front of the cameras, a result of the increasing prevalence of dedicated Formula One channels in several important markets and constant online coverage. With Hulkenberg reportedly not receiving his salary either, this was an alarming period for a team which came close to the brink in 2009 when BMW’s last-minute withdrawal prompted founder Peter Sauber to return to save the squad he brought into Formula One in 1993.
which were scored in the opening eight races. A return to 2012-style compounds was a vital boost to a team which had found a way to work with those tyres better than most and failed completely to adapt to Pirelli’s higher-degradation 2013-specification selection. The team was quick to point out, however, that a major package of car upgrades also played a part in the upturn in performance. In a November interview for the official Formula One website, team principal Monisha Kaltenborn put it like this: “The basis for this performance change has certainly been the update we brought

Mexican youngster Gutierrez puts the new C33, powered by a Ferrari engine, through its paces during winter testing in Spain.
In June, following stringent efforts by Sauber and Kaltenborn, a vague tie-up with three Russian institutions – Investment Corporation International Fund (ICIF), the State Fund of Development of North West Russian Federation and the National Institute of Aviation Technologies (NIAT) – was announced by the team. The ICIF was set up to assist technology programmes, the State Fund of North West Russian Federation finances ‘projects and activities supporting the economic, scientific and cultural heritage’ and the NIAT is one of Russia’s leading scientific institutions. Ahead of the inaugural Russian Grand Prix in 2014, it appeared as if the groups were willing to invest in the team as a means of promoting the sport in the country, with the caveat that unheralded 19-year-old Formula Renault 3.5 driver Sergey Sirotkin was trained up for a race seat in 2014. As Sauber began efforts to get Sirotkin a Formula One superlicence, it had been expected that investment in the team would follow. By the end of the season, however, things had gone unusually quiet, with no real answers emerging.
A NEWCOMER AND A STAR It was a difficult scenario for Hulkenberg and, in particular, his new team-mate, Esteban Gutierrez. The 22-year-old Mexican made his Grand Prix debut after a year as Sauber’s reserve driver, which encouraged several of the team’s Mexican sponsors to stay on in spite of Sergio Perez’s departure to McLaren. Gutierrez, it must be said, looked a touch out of his depth in the early races, notably in China where he careered into a helpless Adrian Sutil on lap four. Qualifying was also a struggle. Gutierrez failed to make it out of the first part of qualifying on ten occasions, although the upturn in the C32’s performance did allow
60 l BLACK BOOK 2014
him to crack the top ten three times later in the year. Points, however, continued to prove hard to come by – his only scoring performance was a seventh place finish in Japan, by some distance his best showing of the season. There is no indication that Gutierrez is anything other than solid, but by the end of the year at least he looked as though he was getting the hang of things. Hulkenberg, meanwhile, was one of the stars of the year. As soon
as he had a competitive car under him, he flew and it remains utterly baffling that the German has not been snapped up for 2014 by a frontrunning team. Overlooked by McLaren when the team rushed into signing Perez late in 2012, he had talks with Ferrari about replacing Felipe Massa for 2014 but missed out when the Scuderia opted to re-sign Kimi Raikkonen. Lotus then seemed his most likely destination, only for the team’s uncertain financial

situation to effectively hand the drive to Pastor Maldonado. In the second half of the year, in particular, Hulkenberg was brilliant for Sauber – his drive to fourth place in Korea may have been the drive of the season, while his third position on the grid at Monza might have been the best qualifying lap of the year. To finish in the points in nine of 19 races was no mean feat in a vehicle which had significant deficiencies at times. There is no doubt that he deserves a shot in a leading car.
BUSINESS For a time in 2013 things looked bleak for Sauber but the team appears, for the moment at least, to have got on top of its well-reported financial issues and is ready to resume its now-traditional role in the thick of Formula One’s midfield. The Swiss team has been an ever-present on the grid since 1993 – indeed, only Ferrari, McLaren and Williams are older – but its situation has looked particularly precarious
twice during that period: at the end of 2009 when BMW made its surprise decision to withdraw from the sport and team founder Peter Sauber took control again, and last season when, for a time, the team was struggling to pay suppliers and openly admitting it required new investment. The Russian tie-up announced in July seemed to be some sort of salvation, although as 2014 began there was no indication that the deal had progressed much beyond the original

press release. The only visible sign that the partnership, which was thought to include new investment as well as an exploration of technologies, is still in place is the presence of 18-year-old Sergey Sirotkin in a test driver role, although the initial announcement had indicated he would be in a race seat this year. Instead, Sauber is again relying on Mexican sources of investment, linked to its decision to retain driver Esteban Gutierrez for a second season. After announcing its driver line-up, the team was able to announce a quick succession of renewals: a multi-million dollar premium partner agreement with Carlos Slim Domit’s Telmex group; Jose Cuervo tequila; and insurer Interproteccion. In January it also unveiled a new Mexican partner, with financial services firm Unifin – active in leasing, factoring and auto credit – stepping for a full season of sponsorship after a toe-in-the-water
deal at the 2013 Italian Grand Prix. Improving on last season’s seventh place must be the target for a team led in fine style by lawyer Monisha Kaltenborn, who also owns a one-third stake – founder Peter Sauber retains the rest, but has gradually withdrawn from day-to-day management. Kaltenborn is respected up and down the pit-lane and was refreshingly frank about the team’s problems last year. “We have put a very challenging year behind us,” she said during the online launch of the Sauber C33, its 2014 car. “The first half of 2013 in particular was difficult for us, but the second half saw us making significant strides. We learnt a great deal during this time and will be applying the lessons in the new season.” There is still a team of 300, plus a superb windtunnel facility, based at the team’s rural Swiss base in Hinwil, around half an hour from Zurich. The team also has a rock-solid relationship with Ferrari, which dates back to the 1995-2005 period in which Sauber ran with the Italian manufacturer’s engines rebadged as Petronas’. After the BMW era ended abruptly in 2009, the team turned to Ferrari once again, for engines and gearboxes. A deal for 2014 and beyond, which may cost the team as much as €17 million per season, was agreed in October last year.
SPORTING The departure of Sauber chief designer Matt Morris to McLaren midway through last year was played down by
62 l BLACK BOOK 2014
the team, but it was hardly ideal timing given the new technical era Formula One is about to enter. There was a quick move to promote from within, with Eric Gandelin, a former Prost engineer who has been with Sauber for many years, taking Morris’ role. He and his staff have produced what, aesthetically at least, appears a neat solution to the complex new rules – not a small feat, particularly given the team’s financial constraints. “Together, these changes present the engineers with a huge challenge, especially with time pressure also a major factor,” Gandelin said, speaking as the C33 was unveiled to the world. “We’ve had to make various decisions on the chassis before all the necessary data and information was available to us. That is understandable, given that engine development continues alongside that of the rest of the car up to the last possible moment. And ultimately, of course, that is in our interests as well.” Despite his inexperience, retaining the erratic but improving Gutierrez will provide some continuity, for the other major departure at Sauber in 2013 was the highly impressive Nico Hulkenberg. In his place for 2014 is another German, with Adrian Sutil switching from Force India, Hulkenberg’s new home, to join the Swiss team. Some new scenery should do Sutil the world of good, for his career, interrupted for a year in 2012, has stagnated somewhat. Regarded as solid, quick on his day, but not a spectacular

talent, he will nonetheless provide a good test for Gutierrez. The team has invested heavily in the young Mexican’s development but a further step up is required this season. “We have long considered him to be a talented racing driver,” Kaltenborn said of Gutierrez. “Last year he had a difficult start, but managed to steadily progress. He has also settled into the team very well. We are confident he can now turn his experience into good results.” Shortly before it launched its new car in January, the team announced Dutchman Giedo van der Garde as its
test and reserve driver for 2014. Van der Garde, who raced competently for Caterham last year, will keep the race drivers on their toes, not least as he likely brings substantial financial backing from the McGregor fashion label owned by his father-in-law Marcel Boekhoorn. It seems a shrewd move by Sauber to have him on its books. Young Sirotkin, meanwhile, will continue to be groomed for Formula One as long as the Russian deal holds firm. In February, Sauber announced female Indycar driver Simona de Silvestro, a Swiss national, as an
‘affiliated driver’ in 2014. Gandelin, meanwhile, starting his first full season in such a senior technical role, explained in January that the philosophy behind the C33 has been driven by the need to adapt as a complicated season progresses. “The path we have followed with the design of the Sauber C33-Ferrari allows us maximum flexibility, so that we can react quickly,” he confirmed. “It is also clear that reliability will be an important factor in the first few races in particular. So this is an area which we have given very high priority.”

2013 IN REVIEW: PEAKS AND TROUGHS Toro Rosso had a very Toro Rosso sort of season last year. There were highs and lows and it was difficult to predict exactly which way the team’s performance would go from one race to another. Eighth place in the
constructors’ championship, ahead of Williams, was comfortably achieved but there was also a gap of 24 points to seventh-placed Sauber, leaving the team almost in no-mans land towards the lower reaches of the midfield. Indeed, the most important moment of the season for the Italian outfit, funded largely by Red Bull’s energy
drink dollars, was when driver Daniel Ricciardo was promoted to Red Bull Racing in place of Mark Webber for 2014. At a stroke, the decision justified Toro Rosso’s existence as a development team for Red Bull’s young drivers, the original rationale behind Dietrich Mateschitz’s acquisition and rebrand of the Minardi team in 2005.
TEAM BY TEAM 2014 Patience has not been a watchword for the team’s hierarchy – notably team principal Franz Tost and Helmut Marko, Red Bull’s motorsport consultant and the architect of the company’s young driver programme – in recent times. Ricciardo has bucked an unhelpful trend.
DEVELOPING DRIVERS “Generally speaking he has to be skilled; he has to have talent,” explained Tost at the Singapore Grand Prix in September,
when asked about the expectations placed upon Toro Rosso drivers. “This is the first point. The second point: they must be patient. That means if a driver is coming to Toro Rosso he has to live Formula One 365 days a year. There should be nothing around that disturbs him and he has to be 100 per cent concentrated on this job. “The next important point is discipline. Discipline does not only mean he arrives in time for the meetings, discipline means also that

Up until that point, only Sebastian Vettel had made it all the way through the system as Red Bull intended. Vettel’s subsequent success has been an albatross around the neck of all of Toro Rosso’s drivers since. The German set the bar unrealistically high, as the likes of Jaime Alguesuari and Sebastien Buemi discovered to their cost when they were turfed out of Toro Rosso, considered unsuitable for the final jump to the world championshipwinning team.

by 20 points to 13 over the 19 races. Vergne’s qualifying form was significantly weaker – his average grid position was 13.37 compared to Ricciardo’s 10.53 but while Ricciardo made the top ten shootout on nine occasions, the Frenchman did it only four times. On three occasions, Vergne failed even to make it out of the first part of qualifying. It said something, however, that when Ricciardo was promoted, Vergne was swiftly retained by Toro Rosso for a third season in 2014.

NOT JUST A ‘B’ TEAM
he, for example, in qualifying does not overdrive the car; that he respects the schedule for his physical training; that he respects all the important facts of nutrition and that he respects what the engineers tell him. The next important point is innovation. He should think first how he can beat, at first his team-mate and, second, all the other competitors. That he must think in advance; that he must be well prepared. All these factors together decide together whether a driver becomes successful and wins races and championships or not, and we are looking for this.” In Ricciardo and Frenchman Jean-Eric Vergne, teammates for the
66 l BLACK BOOK 2014
past two seasons, Toro Rosso, at the very least, found themselves with a well-matched, competitive pair. When Webber confirmed he was heading to the World Endurance Championship and Red Bull’s brief flirtation with Kimi Raikkonen evaporated, the spotlight homed in on the Toro Rosso pair. It was Ricciardo who stepped up, delivering a series of excellent qualifying and race performances in and around the summer break, which, combined with a strong performance testing a Red Bull in July, landed him the most prized drive in the sport. The Australian, who made his Grand Prix debut for Hispania at the 2011 British Grand Prix, outscored Vergne
Although it gets a much smaller slice of the Red Bull pie than its big brother, Toro Rosso remains largely dependent on its parent company for funding. Mateschitz has considered the idea of selling the team at several points since taking over – at one point he even relinquished 50 per cent to former driver Gerhard Berger – but, for the moment at least, he appears content to run two teams; if nothing else, it gives him a significant voice in all the major paddock affairs. As long as he is there, however, the team avoids the kind of financial difficulties several of its midfield rivals faced in 2013 As far as external sponsorship goes, Toro Rosso is increasingly tied to International Petroleum Investment (IPI), a Middle Eastern firm which owns Nova Chemical, Falcon Bank and oil firm Cepsa, each of which had significant space on the car during the season. Described by Tost as a “very close business relationship”, IPI is considered the most likely buyer should Mateschitz ever decide to offload the team. Technically, whilst Toro Rosso inevitably has close ties to its big brother through the Red Bull Technology company, it produces and builds its own cars, utilising what was Minardi’s former home in the Italian town of Faenza. In the last couple of years, despite a harsh economy, the team has been expanding in order for it to do so, having initially shared
TEAM BY TEAM 2014 / 1
TEAM BY TEAM 2014
resources and know-how with Red Bull to a much greater degree. The arrival of James Key, a highly rated engineer who joined from Sauber in September 2012, has also galvanised the team somewhat, although Toro Rosso, with around 300 employees, is still among the smallest in the sport. “Last year I said that we could do with an extra dozen guys in the aero department and we’ve gone beyond that,” Key noted at the end of the season. “The team is really well supported by its owners and we’ve recruited a lot of people and primarily they are the people arriving now. We’ve restructured as well, and that’s beginning to show some promise, but putting better structures in place throughout the team is still a work in progress. We attacked the performance areas that were still growing, but have had to deal with 2013 and 2014 car programmes simultaneously. We’ve had no choice in that.”
BUSINESS Above all else, Toro Rosso exists as a finishing school for the seemingly never-ending line of Red Bull-backed younger drivers. In Daniel Ricciardo, it has just had its second graduate, which will have come as a major relief to the team’s hierarchy after a fallow few years following Sebastian Vettel’s move to Red Bull Racing. If Ricciardo has a fraction of Vettel’s success it will reflect well upon the Italian team with Austrian energy drink in its veins. Toro Rosso has been competing in Formula One since 2006, following Dietrich Mateschitz’s decision to buy the popular, but tiny, Minardi team from Australian Paul Stoddart. A second Red Bull-owned team gave Mateschitz not only another stepping stone for the truly impressive young driver programme, which has required substantial investment over the last
decade or so, but also new status within the Formula One world. Most obviously, he now had two votes instead of one. The sport’s governance structures have chopped and changed somewhat since then but Mateschitz’s close relationship with Bernie Ecclestone has held firm. Red Bull’s view counts. On the track, Toro Rosso more often than not finds itself in the thick of the midfield – in the last five years it has finished tenth, ninth, eighth, ninth and eighth, and its best season remains 2008 when Vettel inspired it to sixth place in the championship. That is perhaps more impressive than it sounds given that the team was forced by a regulation change to extricate itself from its close technical ties with Red Bull Technology and build its own chassis from its Italian base in Faenza, rather than taking a UK-manufactured model off the shelf.
Complete with appendage, the Toro Rosso STR09 was blighted by Renault-related problems throughout winter testing, as the French manufacturer struggled to adapt to the new engine rules.

Russia’s Daniil Kvyat (right) was the surprise choice to replace Ricciardo for 2014 but the promising 19-year old has the backing of Renault’s Rob White (below left) and Toro Rosso team principal Franz Tost (below right).
The team has grown quickly and has found technical continuity with the arrival of James Key. Team principal Franz Tost, who has been since its 2006 debut, believes that will pay dividends in this year of major change. “The new rules have required a completely new design philosophy, starting with a clean sheet of paper,” he said in January. “Having invested in new staff and facilities over the past few years, we have been able to tackle the task of designing and building the STR9 with a group of engineers and designers that have been working on the project since day one, under the leadership of James Key. That stability has been of great benefit, while in other areas we hope that changes we have introduced will also bring a step up in performance.” Although the bulk of the team’s funding still comes from Red Bull, Toro Rosso has close commercial ties with the Middle East and in particular International Petroleum Investment Company (IPIC), an Abu Dhabi government firm designed ‘to invest in the energy and related sectors across the globe’. Abu Dhabi-owned oil company Cepsa is a major sponsor of the team, as is Canadian-based Nova Chemicals, another IPIC company. IPIC also owns the bulk of Aabar Investments, which itself owns Falcon Private Bank, another team partner. Nova Chemicals re-signed for an unspecified multi-year term in January, while the team’s sure financial footing was underlined in the same month when it signed a sponsorship agreement for 2014 with private investment firm Sapinda Holding.
SPORTING Tost is not a man to mince his words. Even as he admitted in January that it was too early to make predictions about the forthcoming season, he added: “What I can say is that we must do better than in 2013 and move up the order.” To do so, the Austrian will be relying on Englishman Key and his team in the technical department and a lively

looking driver line-up of Frenchman Jean-Eric Vergne, who has been retained despite being overlooked by Red Bull Racing in favour of his 2013 team-mate, and the promising if inexperienced 19-year-old Daniil Kvyat. Tost confirmed that Vergne, about to start his third season in Formula One, “will be expected to use his experience to drive the team forward”, and the Frenchman – quick but inconsistent, certainly compared to Ricciardo - knows that he is in the last-chance saloon; Toro Rosso and Red Bull, after all, have hardly been shy about dispensing with young drivers they don’t believe will make the grade. At the very least, Vergne must show his new team-mate the way. There is plenty of excitement surrounding Kyvat, even in a season which will likely be as difficult as pronouncing his surname. Part of the
Red Bull young driver initiative, he won the GP3 championship, which supports Formula One events in Europe, last season, marking himself out as a man to watch. Even so, it was still a surprise to see him given the nod for a race seat this year. The next Red Bull cub in line had appeared to be Portugal’s Antonio Felix da Costa – Kvyat’s flatmate last year – but a patchy Formula Renault 3.5 season appears to have cost him his chance; he has at least been retained by Red Bull and will test for Red Bull Racing alongside a racing programme in the DTM with BMW. Drivers aside, the biggest change for Toro Rosso this year is its switch from Ferrari to Renault power. The move, which aligns Toro Rosso with the world championship-winning engine and gearbox package of its big brother team, was announced in May 2013 to allow ample time for integration, both

technically and in terms of personnel. “Changing your engine partner is always a bit of a step into the unknown for both parties, until that working relationship is established and everyone understands how best to operate together,” Key said.
“Renault were very supportive from the outset, making sure we had a very good overview of what they’ve been up to with the power unit and their plans for development, so we were able to get up to speed very quickly with it. To switch from a process
where you’ve got a well-established and understood way of working with the previous engine supplier to a situation where you have not only a new engine supplier but also a totally different type of power unit that we’re not familiar with at all, is quite a big leap. Not only are you trying to establish the relationship, you’re doing it through what is a very complex project for both sides. I have to say, Renault has been excellent at recognising that and helping us out a great deal.” Key has assembled a solid team, which was still growing in 2013 as it expanded its aerodynamics department. He has high hopes for the season ahead. “It’s a work in progress,” he said. “We were quicker than the points scored suggested in 2013, if you could look behind the numbers, but we didn’t make the most of our opportunities. Therefore, we’re putting all our efforts into ensuring we have a better situation for this year.”

WILLIAMS The FW35, pictured at the Monaco Grand Prix (right), will not be a car fondly remembered by the Williams team. Pastor Maldonado (below) was amongst the most frustrated of all.
2013 IN REVIEW: IN THE DOLDRUMS If the hope was that Pastor Maldonado’s victory at the Spanish Grand Prix in May 2012 was the dawn of a bright new era for Williams, the last 18 months, and the last 12 in particular, have been sobering to say the least. Williams had a dismal 2013, only scoring five points and, for a large part of the season, were but one freak result away from dropping behind Marussia or Caterham in the world championship. Such a result would have been unthinkable: as it was, neither of the minnows scored a point and Valterri Bottas’ well-earned eighth place at the penultimate race in Austin pulled Williams out of immediate danger. It was one of only two races at which Williams troubled the scorers in 2013, the other being in Hungary when Maldonado scored a single point for tenth place. The car, the FW35, was uncompetitive for much of the season, as evidenced by Bottas’ failure to make it through the first section of qualifying on eight occasions and his team-mate’s failure to do so nine times. Personnel-wise, 2013 was yet another year of change for a group which has
had its fair share of comings and goings in recent times. Most significantly, it was the season when Claire Williams became the face of the team. The daughter of Sir Frank Williams was promoted shortly after the season began to the newly created position of deputy team principal. One of the team’s “most valuable assets” – according to her father – Williams stepped up to her new responsibilities impressively, despite doing so at a time when the cars were falling short on the track. Her promotion was due, at least in part, to the surprise departure of Toto Wolff, who was lured to Mercedes in a senior role over the winter but remains a minority Williams shareholder. The changes would have been announced prior to the start of the season but there was an understandable delay as Formula One’s most family-oriented team mourned the death of Lady Virginia Williams, Sir Frank’s wife and Claire’s mother, in March.
CHANGES AT THE TOP Changes on the technical front followed later in the season, as it became clear the FW35 was far from being a worldbeater. In July, the team announced
that Mike Coughlan, who had only been technical director since 2011, had left and was to be replaced by the experienced Pat Symonds as chief technical officer. Symonds began work in mid-August following his own departure from Marussia, where he had been a technical consultant since 2011 at the same time as serving a ban for his part in the Renault ‘crashgate’ scandal at the 2008 Singapore Grand Prix. It was probably too late for Symonds to have any kind of meaningful impact on Williams’ 2013 season, although the
70 l BLACK BOOK 2014
TEAM BY TEAM 2014 / 1
TEAM BY TEAM 2014
team’s experiment replacing its coanda exhaust configuration at the end of the season resulted in a slight upturn in performance. “It is really difficult to change something massively if the car is coming out not so good as you can’t make any fundamental changes once the season is on,” Claire Williams told the official Formula One website as the season ended. “So we’ve tried to make changes in order to prepare the team for next year. It would have been nice – more for the team than for me – if we
had had a better year than we did. But that’s Formula One. “I think it was a real eye-opener for everybody in the team – and it has actually made us sit and go right and address our problems. And that’s what we’ve done. We have to think more of what we’ve achieved in terms of changes for next year rather than lament that 2013 has been an awful year.” In May, the team confirmed another major change for 2014. After two years with Renault, it will switch to Mercedes-Benz power, believing the
German manufacturer will provide it with more competitive equipment.
BOTTAS MAKES HIS MARK Bottas’ good run at the end of the season rather masked the fact that he was largely anonymous for much of his debut season, only making headlines when he qualified a superb third during a wet qualifying session in Canada. Bottas out-qualified Maldonado 12-7 over the season,

making it into the top ten twice, whereas the Venezuelan never did. Overall it was a solid first year for a man very highly rated, not least by Sir Frank Williams himself. It was no surprise at all that the team elected to retain him for 2014.
72 l BLACK BOOK 2014
Maldonado, meanwhile, believing he was due a more competitive car, was busy extricating himself from the team towards the end of the season, a situation complicated by Williams’ binding fiveyear contract with the Venezuelan’s longterm backer, state-owned oil company PDVSA. Williams ultimately secured a severance package with the company, which means it will continue to help fund the team even after Maldonado’s exit – expect an extraordinary payment in Williams’ next set of accounts. Maldonado had a poor season, not all of which was his fault, although the Venezuelan did himself no favours inside or outside the team with a ludicrous comment to the media suggesting the crew had sabotaged his car during qualifying for the US Grand Prix – the only way, he told the world, he could possibly have qualified eight places behind his younger Finnish team-mate. Quick and erratic have been the words most often used to describe Maldonado in his three seasons with Williams; in 2013, the
latter was the one uttered more often. 2013 was Williams’ second consecutive season without a title sponsor, although PDVSA’s multimillion investment has more than covered any shortfall. There were two deals of note during the year: a technical partnership with Shoretel, covering both the Formula One team and its offshoot technology facility in Qatar, was announced in July, while Kazakhstani investment business TAK Group joined forces with Williams to promote Kazakh capital Astana. The team’s latest set of accounts, for the year ending December 2012, show Williams Grand Prix Holdings PLC – the group comprising the Formula One team, Williams’ advanced engineering division, its hybrid power company and its Qatari technology base – made a loss of UK£4.57 million. The Formula One team, however, appears relatively stable, if far from the richest team in the sport. Williams is banking on a year of transition in 2013 bearing fruit in not too distant future.
A five-year title sponsorship agreement with Martini was confirmed in early March after a very positive debut for the Mercedespowered FW35.
74 l BLACK BOOK 2014
BUSINESS One win in a decade and no world championship title since Jacques Villeneuve took the grand prize in 1997: it has been a fallow period for Williams, certainly when compared to the glory of the 1980s and early 1990s. And yet the team enters 2014 with a newfound air of confidence, even after a dismal 2013. There have been technical changes and a host of new faces have been signed up to strengthen a technical unit which has chopped and changed since the departure of technical director Sam Michael in 2011. Perhaps the most significant new face, though, is Felipe Massa, who will race in blue this year after eight seasons in Ferrari red. It is the first time since 2011, and another Brazilian, Rubens Barrichello, that the team has been
able to field an experienced, multiple Grand Prix winner. In the garage, operations are now led by the experienced Pat Symonds, who joined Williams from Marussia last summer and quickly became chief technical officer. Head of aerodynamics Jason Somerville has been joined by more new recruits: Dave Wheater, formerly of Lotus, as head of aerodynamic performance, and former Red Bull Racing man Shaun Whitehead as head of aerodynamic process. Early in 2014 the team confirmed Jakob Andreasen had been hired from Force India as head of engineering operations, Craig Wilson was returning from Mercedes as head of vehicle dynamics, and Rod Nelson, most recently of Lotus, had been signed as chief test and support engineer. Rob Smedley, Massa’s race engineer at Ferrari for so many years,
was also expected to join the team in a senior role. It has been a major, but necessary, period of change, led by Sir Frank Williams and group chief executive Mike O’Driscoll. “We have a really strong and capable group of designers, aerodynamicists and engineers but it became clear that we needed to support the people that we have, and to structure the team in a more productive and efficient way,” said Claire Williams, the deputy team principal of the organisation her father founded, and the public face of the team as Sir Frank focuses on wider strategy. “Our current objective is to get the team back to winning ways, so the changes we have made over the past nine months have all been done with the intention to take us in that direction,” Claire Williams continued, speaking in January. “Winning races

isn’t a short-term project, there are never any quick solutions, but this is part of a big change in Williams’ history and it’s all with the goal of moving us back up the grid.” In March Martini confirmed a five-year deal, believed to be worth US$15 million per year, to take title sponsorship of the team and major branding rights. It was a huge boost
to Williams; its first title sponsor since AT&T departed at the end of 2011. Venezuelan oil company PDVSA signed what was believed to be a five-year agreement that year and although its deal was linked to the presence of Pastor Maldonado in one of the Williams’ cars, it is understood the team, which never discusses its commercial activities, was able to secure a sizeable settlement with
the state-controlled firm. A major new deal with Brazilian oil firm Petrobras was also confirmed before the start of the 2014 season. The new partners join the likes of human resources services company Randstad, information services firm Experian, long-time watch sponsor Oris, Thomson Reuters and Finnish companies Kempii and Wihuri.
SPORTING It will take a little time to get used to the sight of Felipe Massa in anything other than Ferrari overalls but the 32-year-old Brazilian has made the move to Williams after the Italian team decided not to renew his contract. Massa may not be the driver he was before his deeply unfortunate accident during qualifying for the 2009 Hungarian Grand Prix, when he was struck on the head by an errant spring from another car and suffered a fractured skull, but he is probably just the type of experienced, mature driver a team like Williams needs. He should be a good foil for Valterri Bottas, the talented Finn who made a

solid debut in a difficult car last season. The team was quick to retain Bottas, whom it rates extremely highly – MassaBottas is certainly a stronger pairing than the Maldonado-Bottas line-up of 2013. “Felipe is a huge talent in our sport,” Claire Williams said at the start of the year, “and we believe he will be instrumental in driving this team forward. Retaining Valterri also gives us stability and we know he has the talent to get the job done.” 2014 will be the first year since Massa’s Grand Prix debut in 2002 that he has not driven a Ferrari-powered car. Williams has switched from Renault to Mercedes for this season, with the deal believed to run for seven years from 2014. “Mercedes is a great brand and
we believe that with the changes around the powertrain regulations for this year, Mercedes will be in the best position to help take us where we want to get to,” Williams explained. “We are a group of people with a very similar vision and they have been great to work with. Renault were a good partner and it’s always a concern when making a change, but Mercedes have been nothing short of supportive and helpful in everything we need to do. They have a lot of pressure on them at the moment to develop the new power unit, but they have always been as efficient and effective as you would imagine Mercedes to be.” 18 months in the making, the new FW36 was revealed shortly before the
first Jerez test in an interim, all-blue livery – later updated to include Martini branding. The design of the car was completed by mid-September, but, as with every team along the pit-lane, it will be developed as the season goes on and everyone learns more about how to maximise the new era of engines, energy recovery systems and aerodynamics. Symonds, who is back on the front line, was keeping his cards tight to his chest in January when he said: “I’m confident that we’ll be close to the front aerodynamically than we were last year. Our ambition for the year ahead is to have a strong 2014 season.” With all the investment and fresh impetus, Williams ought to be much closer to the front this time round.

2013 IN REVIEW: TENTH, NOT LAST It didn’t make a headline at the time, but Jules Bianchi’s 13th place finish at the second race of the season in Malaysia was the result which may come to be viewed as a turning point
in Marussia’s history. Its significance only became clear at the end of the year when it turned out to be the best result achieved by either Marussia or rivals Caterham, and therefore the difference between finishing tenth and 11th in the world championship. A top ten position has become vital for both, as it helps
unlock a greater share of Formula One’s overall prize pot. The rather convoluted mechanism Formula One employs to distribute revenues, however, means that Marussia will not automatically receive the US$30 million-plus extra income often quoted as the difference between tenth and 11th; instead, tenth position

Marussia, therefore, will have an opportunity to join that group in 2014. To finish ahead of Caterham – a team which, like Marussia, was formed in 2010 at a time when it looked as though a budget cap would reduce costs significantly and allow new entrants an opportunity to be
competitive – was still a sizeable achievement for the Anglo-Russian squad. Majority-owned by the Marussia car company, which has visions of joining the luxury road car market, the team is run from Banbury, in the English county of Oxfordshire.

John Booth, a pair of no-nonsense Englishmen who have navigated the often choppy waters of Formula One with considerably dignity since the team was formed as Virgin Racing, from the skeleton of Booth’s Sheffieldbased Manor Motorsport. Marussia increased its stake in the team in April after Lloyds Development Capital (LDC), the private equity arm of the partly UK government-owned bank, sold its 29.4 per cent stake. LDC had invested around UK£10 million in the team as it was created in late 2009 and, more recently, agreed to a loan of UK£38.4 million two years ago. Marussia owns all but 7.3 per cent of the company, with the remainder shared between the team’s current and former management. Major sponsorship remains scarce, with the team taking a range of smaller deals instead, but Russian ties increased in 2013 through deals with betting firm BC Liga Stavok, brokerage firm InstaForex and news agency RBC. At the British Grand Prix, the team was also able to announce a tie-up with Russian-owned English soccer club Reading. Financially, though, life at the back of the grid is as hard as ever. Probably the team with the smallest budget in the sport, Marussia have found highlights hard to come by over the past four years. 2013 was no exception, although a wet, but drying, qualifying session for the Belgian Grand Prix provided a moment to remember. Both Marussia cars made it out of the first part of qualifying for the first time, lining up 15th and 16th on the grid. Beyond that, it was nip and tuck with Caterham once again. “At the beginning we had a clear advantage over Caterham, then we lost some ground during the middle part of the year,” Booth said. “Over the final long-haul phase we have pushed extremely hard, caught up and enjoyed some proper racing with them.” The Yorkshireman could be forgiven, however, for describing 2013 as a “character-building season”.
BLACK BOOK 2014 l 79
Briton Max Chilton (below) finished every race in his first season of Formula One. The 22-year-old has been retained for 2014 and tested the new car (right) in Spain midway through January.
“The MR-02 was the first of our cars to have a full development programme,” Booth added. “It had been in the windtunnel since the previous June, so was a big step forward, probably by a couple of per cent.”
AN EARLY FOCUS ON 2014 Technically, the loss of Pat Symonds to Williams in August was a blow for a team with a design staff of around 80 people. Symonds had acted as a consultant to Marussia, although had not attended races as a result of the ban received for his part in the Renault ‘crashgate’ affair. He left behind a technical team led by chief designer John McQuilliam, head of aerodynamics Rich Taylor and head of mechanical Rob Taylor. In line with most of its competitors, given the rule changes ahead, Marussia’s focus during the season moved quickly from developing its 2013 car to creating its 2014 challenger. The team confirmed in July that it would switch from Cosworth to Ferrari power for 2014, ending the British engine manufacturer’s latest stint in Formula One. Marussia fielded a pair of Formula One newcomers in 2013, after mutually agreeing to end its contract with Timo Glock over the winter. It had looked likely that Briton Max Chilton, who brought family funding
from his father Graeme, a former vice chairman of Aon, would be partnered by Brazilian Luiz Razia. As winter testing progressed, rumours began to swirl about the Brazilian’s funding package. When the money promised never arrived, the unfortunate Razia, GP2 runner-up in 2012, was dropped. The team turned instead to Frenchman Jules Bianchi, a man with connections at Ferrari who had been in with a chance of a Force India drive but ultimately lost out to Adrian Sutil. Bianchi was thrown in at the last minute and delivered in some style. Some of his early performances, whilst not out-and-out spectacular, were reminiscent of the way Fernando Alonso showed what he was capable of in a backmarker Minardi team 12 years ago. Bianchi’s stock rose rapidly, although Chilton, fresh out of GP2, was on his coattails at points at points during the season, despite a slow start. Chilton has a measured approach and while nobody expects him to rise too much further through the Formula One ranks, unless his financial backing proves irresistible, he did at least complete all 19 races – a feat never achieved before by a driver in his first Formula One season. He may well remain on-board for 2014 alongside Bianchi, who was confirmed for a second season in October after the Ferrari engine deal was signed and sealed.
BUSINESS Marussia is Formula One’s smallest team but, as 2014 starts, it is no longer its worst. The tenth place finish last season has set the team on the road to an increased share in Formula One’s revenues but, thanks to the quirky revenue-sharing model, only if it can make the top ten again this time round. That could mean around US$35 million in additional prize money, a significant chunk of Marussia’s budget. The battle with Caterham at the back of the grid, which Marussia

has been fighting from the moment both were founded in 2010, could be especially feisty this year. The two teams share ambitions to move forward, and whilst that is likely to be easier said than done, the 2014 rule changes do appear to offer the minnows their best chance yet to make a mark on the sport. While Russian luxury car manufacturer Marussia Motors owns the team, the strings are pulled from Banbury, a small town in the United Kingdom, by a management unit led by John Booth.
Working to a limited budget and with resources in short supply, a small team of Marussia designers began conceiving the 2014 car in early 2012. The result, nearly two years on, is the MR03, which made its debut – after some last-minute gremlins delayed its launch – on day three of the first fourday pre-season test at Jerez. “As we saw in the step from 2012 to 2013, we have young but experienced and extremely talented technical and engineering groups within the Marussia F1 Team, who have contributed enormously to our rate of progression
over the past couple of years,” said team principal Booth, evidently proud, as the new car came to life. “To have designed a car that is true to the concept first conceived in early 2012, despite the integration of an entirely new powertrain and whilst pushing hard to attain our 2013 constructors’ championship objective, is a testament to the extent to which we have matured as a technical organisation.” Commercially, the team has got used to walking a tightrope. There are deals in place with watch

manufacturer Armin Strom and direct-selling company QNet, while Russian influence has grown through agreements with InstaForex and a media partnership with news agency RBC. Marussia, as the only team on the grid with a Russian licence, will be aiming to make the most of Formula One’s first visit to Sochi in October. With Cosworth not producing a 2014-specification engine, Marussia has turned to Ferrari for power and transmission systems this season. “They are extremely professional and have been entirely supportive from the beginning,” said Booth, in January. “There is excellent cooperation between our two technical groups in all
areas of the new relationship and this has made the considerable challenge of integrating a new powertrain a great deal easier.” As with Caterham, progress would be scoring a point. Booth, however, was adopting a cautious approach as testing began. “We have to temper the fact that there are a great many unknowns this season with the fact that we are, by nature, a highly ambitious team that is always demanding more of itself. The target is to keep moving forward and that means being in a position where we no longer have to focus on the threat from behind and, instead, take the fight to the teams ahead.
SPORTING Although Marussia confirmed a switch to Ferrari power in July last year, the first engine switch in its short history, it has retained its technical partnership with McLaren, which has run since 2011. The team has access to McLaren’s windtunnel, simulators and computer technologies through McLaren’s Applied Technologies arm, ensuring there will be no conflict between the British and Italian rivals. Reading between the lines, Marussia appears quietly confident about its MR03 chassis. Chief designer John McQuilliam described it as the team’s “best-ever optimisation of performance versus innovation versus design integrity” in January, adding: “We have benefited enormously from the stability of our design teams, with the same personnel beginning – and now concluding – the process over a 24-month period. I think we can feel justifiably proud of the way we have responded to such a significant challenge and the quality of car we have arrived at with the MR03. “The car has been manufactured and finished to a very high standard, whilst achieving our most significant weightsaving targets to date and, importantly, with a crucial eye towards maintaining our excellent record of reliability.” For the first time in its history, Marussia will field the same driver pairing as the previous season, with Frenchman Jules Bianchi partnering Briton Max Chilton. Each will be taking part in his second Formula One season. Bianchi, who is managed by Nicolas Todt, made a good impression in 2013 and retains his Ferrari connections as part of the Italian company’s young driver programme. Quite how good the quiet 24-year-old is or can be has not yet been revealed, but 2014 should provide further clues. He should continue to have the measure of the competent Chilton, who made solid progress throughout the season but has not yet fully halted the suspicion that he is in the seat as
As other teams struggled, Marussia’s testing form (below) suggested it stands its best chance yet of scoring that elusive first point.

“For 2014, the level of car complexity has increased dramatically due to the considerable role to be played by the power unit and the demands that places on the driver and his engineering team,”
said chief engineer Dave Greenwood as testing started. “Retaining Jules and Max is one extremely valuable ‘known quantity’ at the start of a season that is full of unknowns. “At the same time as making life far simpler from a design and development point of view, from a performance perspective we have two young, highly motivated and extremely talented drivers who we know are capable of driving our team forward.” There is much to admire about the way Marussia has gone about its business since entering the sport as Virgin Racing in 2009. A small, closeknit team has worked wonders to even get on the grid each year. The 2014 rule changes surely offer the best chance yet to inch closer to the midfield.

CATERHAM Giedo Van der Garde takes to the grass at the 2013 Japanese Grand Prix (right). The Dutchman (below right) was not retained by team owner Tony Fernandes (below left), despite a solid first season.
2013 IN REVIEW: BACK OF THE PACK As Marussia celebrated tenth place, so Caterham faced the reality of finishing bottom of the world championship for the first time. The intricacies of Formula One’s revenue generating system mean it is not a financial disaster for Caterham to finish 11th, although if next season has the same result it will lose a significant chunk of prize money for dropping out of eligibility for the sport’s ‘Column 1’ money. Like Marussia, Caterham has come nowhere near scoring a point in four years of racing but to lose out to its only realistic rival after a long, competitive season right at the back of the field must have been a bitter pill to swallow. It was a less than ideal start for team principal Cyril Abiteboul, the Frenchman drafted in by team founder and Caterham owner Tony Fernandes. Speaking before the final race of the season in Brazil, the former Renault executive, who began work at Caterham late in 2012, pointed out that a failure to finish tenth would “give a bit of a headache to my financial director but apart from that
it’s not going to change our entire strategy to Formula One”. A mini-Caterham empire has grown up around the Formula One team. There is a road car programme, a composites division and even a new interest in sailing thanks to former Formula One technical chief Mike Gascoyne. In Abiteboul, Fernandes clearly believes he has found the man to run the race team, leaving the Malaysian entrepreneur to focus on the other elements – and, as it has turned out, spend more time dipping his toe into English soccer as the owner of second-tier Queens Park Rangers. Fernandes has become a silent owner; perhaps the team could have done with a touch of his larger-than-life personality at times in 2013.
GREAT EXPECTATIONS In its first couple of seasons Caterham, then Lotus, seemed to have the measure of Marussia (originally Virgin Racing), but the tables have been turned in the past couple of years. As their rivals kept their expectations in check, Caterham’s senior personnel made what turned out to be several
rash public promises about how they would crack the midfield. It simply hasn’t happened; worse, the team seems no closer to getting on terms with the rest than it did when it was created in time for the start of the 2010 season. The team admitted it made a slow start to 2013, a result of persevering with its unproven exhaust-blowing strategy in the latter half of 2012, instead bringing a wave of upgrades to the first European race of the season in Barcelona. Much of the early part of the year was spent relocating and settling into new facilities, the team base moving from Hingham in Norfolk some 140 miles west to Leafield, Oxfordshire. The
86 l BLACK BOOK 2014
TEAM BY TEAM 2014 / 1
TEAM BY TEAM 2014
major package of rule changes which would take effect from 2014 were also very much on Abiteboul’s mind from an early stage of last year. “It’s something we anticipated and that has even affected our strategy of spend for this year because we knew that there would be so much to invest both from a factory perspective in terms of engine costs, contractual costs but also in terms of car build, so that we have a cash flow that is structured in order to absorb all of that,” he noted in November. “We are going through that now.” It may seem anathema that a Formula One team would effectively give up on a season in order to
prepare for the next but that was the reality for some in the pit-lane in 2013, such is the complexity of the changes for 2014. At the back of the grid, where Caterham invariably could be found, the situation was all the more acute.
A PAIR OF PAYERS The logos of several large companies, GE and Airbus among them, could be seen on Caterham’s cars in 2013, a result largely of Fernandes’ connections in the business world. It has given the team a solid footing but sponsorship revenues were not enough to avoid
having to sign two drivers who came with significant financial backing. France’s Charles Pic, whose money comes via French multinational Safran but who was helped into a Caterham by engine supplier Renault, was, by some distance, the most anonymous driver on the grid. At some events, it was a struggle to remember he was even there. He came into Formula One with Marussia at the start of 2012, with high hopes surrounding him, but two years at the back of the grid have revealed little about his ultimate potential. Not much was expected of the more outgoing Van der Garde beyond the millions of dollars he brought to

the team through his personal ties to the McGregor fashion label. The Dutchman, however, acquitted himself well and even put a Caterham 13th on the grid, showing a deft touch behind the wheel during a wet qualifying session at Spa-Francorchamps. “We clearly went to a much less experienced driver line-up in 2013 and, if I’m honest, I think we suffered because of that,” admitted the team’s technical director Mark Smith at the end of the year. “That’s not to criticise Charles and Giedo. It’s just that the tyres were different and finding the confidence to believe that we were going in the right direction was a little bit difficult.” The team drafted in Heikki Kovalainen, dropped as a race driver for 2013, to run several Friday morning practice sessions in the car to ensure reliability of feedback. It rather confirmed that Pic and Van der Garde had primarily been hired for their money, although neither disgraced himself during the year.
BUSINESS The gauntlet has been laid down to Caterham this year, by its own owner. After four seasons in Formula One without it ever looking like scoring a point, Tony Fernandes has resorted
88 l BLACK BOOK 2014
to a tough love approach. In widely reported comments on the day the team launched its 2014 challenger in January, Fernandes said: “If we’re not competing then we have to seriously examine ourselves and ask, ‘Does this make sense?’ My message to the 250 people here is we have to go for it this year. This is it – the final chance.” He added: “If we’re at the back, I don’t think I’m going to carry on. Nothing is set in stone, but after five years with no points there is a limit to one’s patience, money and motivation, so it’s an important year.”
Fernandes has invested a considerable sum in setting up the team, which started life as Lotus in 2010 and swiftly rebranded to Caterham. Quite simply, it would not exist without him. He has also invested in the Caterham brand, creating specialist engineering and composites divisions and a road car unit in alliance with Renault – the first CaterhamAlpine is due in 2016. A GP2 operation has also been formed to help develop the team and young drivers. The Formula One team, however, has failed to make significant improvements, despite occasional big talk from senior personnel. Mainly, the issue is money. The team still operates on a fraction of the budget of the likes of Red Bull Racing and Mercedes. Indeed, it was formed in the belief that Formula One would be budgetcapped in time for its debut in 2010. That never happened; Fernandes and the team, unsurprisingly, are in favour of the refined cap proposal which is currently on the table. With Fernandes’ business empire often engaging him elsewhere, Caterham is run by former Renault executive Cyril Abiteboul. The Frenchman joined the team, based at relatively new headquarters in the English town of Leafield, at the end of 2012, although with the team mired

somewhat anonymously at the back of the grid last season it is hard to judge his performance. To its credit, Caterham has continued investing ahead of the 2014 season. A new agreement will allow the team to use Toyota Motorsport’s windtunnel in Cologne, while an upgrade to its relationship with Dell and Intel will allow for a more sophisticated computational fluid dynamics operation this year. Caterham will again use Renault power in 2014 and is continuing its technical support relationship with Red Bull Technology. As Abiteboul put it: “While we are realistic enough to know we are very unlikely to be competing at the front of the grid, there is no reason why we should not be fighting higher than we have done since we came into the sport in 2010. “We have extensive experience of working with both Renault and Red Bull, and that is going to be crucial this year. Reliability and energy management will play a key role in 2014, especially early in the season, so our experience of working so closely with both organisations since 2011 will
definitely help throughout the course of the season.” The first objective, as it has been since 2010, is scoring a point.
SPORTING Fernandes, who still seems to call the shots on the big decisions, has not been afraid to make changes in his four years as a team owner and in 2014 that extends to Caterham’s driver line-up. The competent, but rather uninspiring, pairing of Giedo van der Garde and Charles Pic has been replaced by Japanese returnee Kamui Kobayashi and Swedish newcomer Marcus Ericsson. Kobayashi, who made his debut in 2009 for Toyota and raced for Sauber for three years after that, makes what will be a popular return to Formula One after a year spent racing for Ferrari in the World Endurance Championship. Sometimes erratic, but clearly very quick, the 27-year-old has been signed as much for his talent as his funding, which is a credit to the team in the straitened times faced by most Formula One teams. He is believed to bring some money with him – around €6 million according to
some reports, a proportion of which was raised by fans in his homeland – but Van der Garde and Pic were both bringing significantly more. Kobayashi needs to galvanise the team this year; it will be fascinating to watch how he adapts to what is essentially a leadership role. 23-year-old Ericsson’s position in the team, meanwhile, can be put down much more to his financial backing. The Swede has been racing in GP2 for the past four seasons. His record there is patchy, with three wins and a sixth place in the 2013 championship the highlights. In terms of talent, there is little doubt that the team’s new reserve driver, Robin Frijns, is the better young prospect, but Ericsson has the funding and the race seat. It will inevitably take him a while to get up to speed and it would be a surprise if he had the measure of Kobayashi; matching the Japanese driver will be his first target. The CT05, which was launched at the first test of the winter in Spain, looks like something which might scare small children – Caterham, led by technical director Mark Smith, has produced one of the more extreme

interpretations of the rather ludicrous new rules governing the front of the car. If it is competitive, however, the team will not care a jot. The technical staff have also quickly indicated that it will be evaluating other solutions to a tricky problem during the season, especially as their windtunnel use in Cologne ramps up. “Despite the major rule changes introduced this season, our design
philosophy was actually only slightly different to usual for a totally new car,” a bullish Smith reported in January. “We have still sought to maximise aero and mechanical performance within the regulations but there has been more emphasis than usual placed upon weight reduction and, bearing in mind how critical reliability will be this year, we have been slightly more conservative in the areas around the
new power unit – cooling systems, exhausts, heat management, etc.” Along with that of performance director John Iley, it is Smith’s work over recent months which will have the greatest influence on Caterham’s season. Given what Fernandes has already said about demonstrating improvement, there is significant pressure on them to ensure the team takes at least one step up in 2014.

FORMULA FUNDS Experienced fund manager John Foti (right and below left) launched Grand Prix Investors Fund in 2010. The company regularly attends gatherings of US Formula One fans (below right) .
92 l BLACK BOOK 2014
IT WAS WHILST WATCHING THE FRENCH GRAND PRIX, AT ABOUT 4.30AM ON THE WEST COAST OF THE UNITED STATES, THAT THE IDEA STRUCK JOHN FOTI. A Formula One fan for decades, Foti was running a financial planning and investment firm in California at the time. “If we were spending the kind of money we spend on advertising and we got the results we got, the companies that were sponsoring Formula One must be spending a huge amount of money to do that,” he says. “In order for them to do that they must have had some kind of financial, marketing war-chest – so that was a clue to us that those companies would be worth looking into for investment and then it dawned on me: ‘I wonder what would happen if we had a mutual fund that just had the companies that supply, support, sponsor Formula One.’” Foti set to work, back-testing the companies involved in the sport, from major sponsors such as Vodafone and Exxon, the parent of McLaren partner Mobil1, to smaller technology companies like 3D Systems, a supplier of several teams. “We found that typically these great companies outperform the market,” Foti recalls. “I sold my financial planning practice five
or six years ago and I was then freed up to focus on testing our fund idea.” The result is the Grand Prix Investors Fund, which began trading on 22nd October 2010 and is now in its fourth year. Foti and his team pool together all the listed companies involved in the sport in some form or another, a regularly updated list which, as Foti speaks in February, numbers around 360. “We have a proprietary screening process to sort out the very best of those companies,” explains Foti. “Right now, we’re holding about 30 or 31 companies in the fund. When a Formula One fan or participant comes to us and wants to invest in something they know and understand, it has a US$1,000 minimum, it has no sales charge upfront. The fund charges a management fee that’s quite reasonable within the industry. When a person
puts, for example, US$10,000 into the fund, then, like any mutual fund, they own a divisible share of all of the stocks that are held in the fund. “We manage that basket of stocks every day. We buy and sell based on how the stocks are performing and what the outlook is for them. By doing that last year an investor in our fund had about a 25 per cent gain.” Although the majority of investors are based in the United States, there has been some international interest: the draw, Foti says, is the ability to know what you are investing in. “We find that people who have invested in funds, maybe in their retirement account or individually, may own a mutual fund but they really don’t know what’s inside it – it’s very hard for them to find out exactly what they’re investing in,” he argues. “With this, if you follow Formula One and you watch a race on any given weekend you see these names all over. You know and understand what you’re investing in and we find that is a great advantage to people that hold shares in our fund. “I know this is perhaps not a very glamorous subject,” Foti continues, “but it’s an important one: the savings rate around the world, the amount that people have saved for retirement, is extremely low, even in the USA – people are not saving enough money. I think one reason is it’s not made

easy for people and people don’t really know what they are investing in. There’s a billion fans of Formula One around the world: here’s a perfect place for them to invest in something they know, understand and follow.” It isn’t just about the logos that appear on cars, either. Foti recalls recent rumours linking Liberty Global as a potential buyer of Formula One from current majority owner CVC Capital Partners. “As soon as they started, we started buying shares in Liberty Global,” he reveals, “and we’ve been buying them every couple of days when we had the opportunity; our investment in those shares is up eight
per cent – we’ve only owned it for a couple of weeks. “When it was rumoured that Waddell & Reed was going to buy a part of CVC’s share, which they ended up doing, we started acquiring those shares and those shares that we’ve held all this time are up 40 per cent. You see it with companies like 3D Systems. 3D printing is going to change manufacturing over time, we’re convinced of it. Our gains in the fund in 3D Systems is well over 100 per cent – we’ve bought and sold it several times. The point is the investment opportunities within the Formula One stock universe are outstanding.”
Foti has ambitions for Grand Prix Investors Fund to outperform the EAFA (Europe, Asia and the Far East) and S&P 500 indexes in the United States each year. “We’ve made it very easy for investors to make the investment,” he adds. “Formula One’s a great place to invest, it’s never been done before, there’s no one else doing it – we’re the only fund of this type and we have more than 30 years of experience managing a portfolio like that. When you put those pieces together, it’s just a logical thing that if Formula One fans around the world are investing money, which they certainly should be, this would be a great place for them to do it.”
Foti and his team regularly update their list of publicly-traded companies active in Formula One. The US Grand Prix at Austin (above) has helped attract new investors.

EXCITING PROVEN WORLDWIDE AND INSPIRED INNOVATORS SUSTAINABLE FIA VISIONARY FIM MOTORSPORT OPTIMISED CIK DESTINATIONS COMMERCIAL Since its establishment in 2006, Apex Circuit Design has grown to become a World leader in the master planning, design and construction of commercially sustainable motorsport destinations. What is the key to the rapid growth of Apex?....It is the unique and personal service; their understanding of the evolution of the leisure industry, a focus on commercial sustainability and a ‘feet on the ground’ approach to motorsport destination design. Founded and run until 2013 by Clive Bowen, new Managing Director Ben Willshire elaborates on how he has already begun to steer Apex to new territories. Where has Apex seen the most growth in the past year? As brand activation is the new focus for marketing any product, we have noticed more automotive manufacturers developing dynamic, customer focused brand centres for marketing new products. Apex have recently secured a number of international projects from major brands and are enjoying working in this growing sector. It helps that Clive Bowen and our management team have mechanical engineering backgrounds, along with motorsport competition experience, which adds value to our clients in this field. Why Commercially Sustainable? At Apex our team have a passion for motorsport and are committed to ensuring the future of motorsport through thoughtful and effective design. Core to our design philosophy is our emphasis on designing alongside a feasible business model where maximum capital value can be extracted from a site, utilising motorsport as a core attraction. All of our engineers understand this process and this is where Apex differ from other race circuit designers.
It has only been in the past decade that more commercially minded circuit owners have grasped the opportunity to exploit land surrounding their facilities to attract other mixed use developments in order to compound their revenue streams.Our clients have enjoyed the rewards associated with this methodology, experiencing increased bottom line whilst also improving track revenue with relative marginal increases to operating costs. Can you name an example of where this design approach has been put into action? Apex have a growing portfolio of projects where a commercially sustainable design approach has led to a successful operation following construction. Our current motorsport destination project in China, the Zhejiang Race Circuit, might be our most notable work to date, in this respect. The 51 Hectare facility is scheduled to open in 2016 and includes a 3.2 km FIA Grade 2 circuit, an 820 m FIA-CIK kart circuit and over 100,000 square metres of buildings including a multi-use pit building and conference facility, a private members club, a five star boutique hotel, 22 exclusive apartments overlooking the race circuit, a 9 storey office tower and a multi-storey car market.
The design is based on the business plan model described earlier and will be a good example of land use and exploitation…. it will be a truly spectacular facility! What is in store for the future of Apex? We need to build on three components which, at the end of 2013, we set as our blueprint for the future. The first is the preparation for new markets such as Latin America, Russia and China; we have recruited engineers from these regions so that we have the linguistic reach and ability to work with local engineering teams. The second is to build our operational support services with recognised race circuit and hospitality operations specialists; and the third is to continue to build upon our inhouse civil engineering abilities so that we remain at the forefront of the industry and continue working with the latest design and construction technologies. We’re happy with the growth we’ve recently experienced and I’m relishing the challenge of leading and building the Apex team over the coming years.
At Apex we understand that a race circuit is unlikely to show a financial return without a surrounding shared mixed use development and a coherent 365 day a year business model. This has been proven time and time again at circuits built in isolation who have struggled to generate a return from track activity alone.

AUSTRALIAN GRAND PRIX MELBOURNE / 16TH MARCH
The first world championship Grand Prix to be staged in Australia was in Adelaide in 1985. Then scene of the season finale, the street circuit quickly became a hugely popular stop on the Formula One calendar, with much of the city buying into the idea of the race. While Adelaide continues to host a round of the domestic V8 Supercars series, since 1996 Australia’s Formula One race has been staged in Melbourne, on another part-temporary circuit at Albert Park. Australia has now become the traditional starting point for the season, only ceding that right twice: in 2006 when Melbourne hosted the Commonwealth Games, and in 2010, when race organisers were in the midst of negotiating a new contract. Few races on the calendar are as popular with the Formula One community but locally the event is subject to annual scrutiny, focusing partly on environmental concerns but largely on the cost to the taxpayer. Often, since 1996, the race has been used as a political tool by opposition parties, but it has always survived, with the wider economic benefits Formula One provides to Melbourne

justifying new contracts. The latest deal signed by the Australian Grand Prix Corporation (AGPC), the body which runs the Formula One race and the annual MotoGP Australian Grand Prix on nearby Phillip Island, was negotiated in 2008 and runs until 2015. Negotiations on an extension will be underway soon, assuming they have not already begun. They will be led by AGPC chairman Ron Walker, who is close to Bernie Ecclestone, and chief executive Andrew Westacott. The Grand Prix is part of the Victorian government’s major events strategy, which, taken as a whole, attracts 230,000 international visitors to the state each year and is said to generate a AUS$1.4 billion economic impact. Government investment in the Formula One race dropped from AUS$56.656 million in 2012 to AUS$50.671 million for 2013. The figure for 2009 was AUS$40.23
million; in 2010 it rose to AUS$49.254 million, rising again to AUS$50.05 million for the 2011 race. In 2013 the Formula One race attracted its largest four-day crowd since 2005, with 323,200 people in attendance including 103,000 for the race on Sunday. Hotel bookings in the city were up 15 per cent year-on-year. Australia’s race, which begins at 5pm local time for the benefit of European television viewers, has always had strong corporate support, notably from Qantas, which has often taken title sponsorship rights. Rolex took that role in 2013 as it launched its wider Formula One sponsorship. Hospitality sales are traditionally amongst the best of any race, with a variety of options and suites available. Albert Park has a habit of producing memorable Grands Prix. Losing Melbourne would be a loss to Formula One.
FEW RACES ON THE CALENDAR ARE AS POPULAR WITH THE FORMULA ONE COMMUNITY BUT LOCALLY THE EVENT IS SUBJECT TO ANNUAL SCRUTINY.

MALAYSIAN GRAND PRIX SEPANG / 30TH MARCH
The 15th Malaysian Grand Prix in March 2013 was attended by 88,450 spectators, according to local reports, with the Sepang International Circuit, located on the far outskirts of Kuala Lumpur and next to the city’s international airport, recording a threeday crowd of well over 100,000. The race is now a firm early-season fixture on the Formula One calendar and in recent years has immediately followed the season-opening Australian Grand Prix. For 2014, strangely, there was a two-week gap between events. Malaysia has a contract with Formula One until 2015 and at the 2013 race prime minister Datuk Seri
98 l BLACK BOOK 2014
Najib Tun Razak, who attended the event as part of the always-healthy government delegation, said the country would “seriously look” at extending its deal. The government pays the annual race fee, a very significant eight-figure sum. “It shows that Malaysia can host an international event of this stature,” Razak continued. “We are pleased with the support from the local and international community.
It is a positive event for Malaysia.” The Sepang International Circuit, funded largely by the Malaysian government, was built in time to host its first Grand Prix in 1999. It was among the first of the new breed of governmentbacked Formula One circuits in new markets, designed to be a magnet for tourism, international prestige and business. In the decade and a half since, crowd numbers at Malaysia’s race have

“We are never just a motorsport venue,” says the circuit’s chief executive, Razlan Razali. “We have all the expertise and facilities to organise corporate and commercial events at the circuit. We have the track record of organising world class concerts, international parties and musical extravaganza.” In line with several Grand Prix venues around the world, Sepang has begun hosting a post-race concert, with the 2013 edition headlined by Guns ‘n’ Roses.

wavered but very solid foundations have been laid. The race continues to be Malaysia’s largest annual sporting event, while outside the Grand Prix the circuit’s management have worked hard to create a wider motorsport calendar, including a round of the MotoGP series and various local championships. The standard of facilities remains high even if, as Bernie Ecclestone reportedly put it in 2013, some areas could do with a “lick of paint”.
Razali, quoted by local newspapers during the 2013 race – an event which provided one of the stories of the season as the Red Bull team orders controversy blew up – believes it imperative that the government extends its deal for the event. “As a venue, SIC cannot afford to lose Formula One,” he said, referring to the circuit’s overall business model – like other Formula One venues its only major form of revenue during the Grand Prix weekend is ticketing, with hospitality and trackside signage largely in the hands of Formula One’s central management. “To extend beyond 2015, we need feedback from the recipients and stakeholders. “There are three things to consider: the economic impact, stakeholders and motor sports development,” he added. “It is always easy to say, ‘Don’t do Formula One,’ but, trust me, if we don’t have it, we will have withdrawal symptoms. Plus, once you give it up, it will be extremely difficult to get it back.”

BAHRAIN GRAND PRIX SAKHIR / 6TH APRIL
There is a major change planned for the 2014 Bahrain Grand Prix – and it is a change the event needs, having been overshadowed in recent years by the lingering political protests in the tiny island kingdom. The April race will switch to the evening for 2014, with an extensive network of floodlights installed at the Bahrain International Circuit (BIC) prior to November’s round of
100 l BLACK BOOK 2014
the World Endurance Championship. Billed by circuit and government officials as a way of celebrating ten years since Bahrain staged its first Grand Prix, the change may also help to end the negative narrative around an event which started brightly but, after it was cancelled in 2011, was by some distance the most uncomfortable weekend of the season for the sport in 2012 and 2013.
“We are delighted to be able to trial the first phase of our lighting project at the WEC, a major milestone in this hugely ambitious project for the BIC, which is scheduled for completion in February,” said Sheikh Salman bin Isa Al-Khalifa, the circuit’s chief executive, in November. “This is by far the biggest development project we have ever undertaken at the BIC
AFTER IT WAS CANCELLED IN 2011, IT WAS BY SOME DISTANCE THE MOST UNCOMFORTABLE WEEKEND OF THE SEASON FOR THE SPORT IN 2012 AND 2013. since the circuit was first built. “I believe there can be no better way for us to mark our tenth anniversary in Formula One [than] by demonstrating our long-term commitment to the sport through this significant investment.” Previous Grands Prix in Bahrain have started at 3pm, with the 2014 race set for a twilight start a few hours later. Even before the well-documented political issues, the Bahrain Grand Prix routinely attracted the smallest crowd of the Formula One season – in part due to the relatively small capacity of 50,000 at the impressive, built-for-purpose Bahrain International Circuit, but also because Sunday is a working day in the kingdom. The circuit itself, now flanked by a small industrial area,
102 l BLACK BOOK 2014
lies around half an hour’s drive south of Bahrain’s capital city and major population hub, Manama. Since the 2011 cancellation, attendances have predictably dwindled as security measures around the circuit have been ramped up. In 2013, circuit officials claimed that some 28,000 attended on race day, part of a three-day crowd that numbered 73,000. If accurate, it constituted a rise on the 2012 numbers, although the sight of the main spectator area, the 10,500-capacity pit-straight grandstand, barely a third full as the race began suggested the reported numbers might have been massaged just a touch. The Formula One community often reports a warm and very hospitable welcome from the Bahrain
International Circuit, the paddock itself dotted with palm trees which light up as the sun sets. The facilities remain excellent and the circuit was utilised in 2013 and 2014 for warmweather winter testing. The circuit itself, built in 2004, has strong corporate backing from Bahraini aluminium company Alba, petrol company Bapco and national telecoms supplier Batelco, while the Formula One race has been titlesponsored every year by Gulf Air, the national carrier. The 2013 event was less controversial than the 2012 edition, when local organisers brazenly politicised the Grand Prix through its misguided ‘UniF1ed’ tagline. But, partly because of the very real issues in the kingdom and partly because Bahrain’s tiny size seems to magnify those issues, the Grand Prix has still felt somehow tarnished. Organisers will hope than an evening race will mark the beginning of a more positive chapter.
CHINESE GRAND PRIX SHANGHAI / 20TH APRIL
Formula One has been a slow-burner in China since arriving in Shanghai for the first time in 2004. Impressive early attendance figures – the vast Shanghai International Circuit can hold around a quarter of a million people – tailed off a little after a couple of years, but in 2013 there were signs that the event was properly establishing himself. A train line linking the circuit to central Shanghai 30 kilometres away – the circuit is located in Jiading, one of
104 l BLACK BOOK 2014
the 18 districts which make up the city – has proved a useful addition, even if there are still plenty of seats still covered with giant tarpaulins for the duration of the Grand Prix weekend. Officially, the circuit – which is titlesponsored by Audi outside the Formula One weekend – can hold 200,000, including 29,000 in the huge main grandstand overlooking the pits. Such is its size, officials had to buy up Asia’s entire polystyrene stock to build it.
Around the time of the first Grand Prix it was deemed essential by all in Formula One to gain a foothold in China; like sports properties the world over, Formula One Management and the teams were keen to grab a slice of the potential riches offered by a populous nation with a fast-growing economy. That all still holds true a decade on, but the feeling persists that the sport has failed to make the most of a golden opportunity. There are still

The sport has not been a failure in the country, but neither has it taken full advantage of the significant government and city investment in the venue. China has become one of the prime examples in the debate over Formula One’s lack of promotion in new markets.
106 l BLACK BOOK 2014
The Shanghai International Circuit itself is a fine venue, offering everything in terms of facilities that teams and the sport’s administrators could wish for. The track layout is challenging, if not an absolute classic of the art form, and usually offers up a good race. As China’s leading motorsport facility, the circuit also hosted a variety of other major series, notably rounds of the World Endurance Championship and World
Touring Car Championship. Locally, the Formula One race is promoted by Juss Event, a wellestablished Shanghai company also responsible for the organisation of the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) 1000 event in the city each year. Juss Event was appointed by Shanghai’s government; it is majority-owned by the state-owned Jiu Shi Corporation, which also has interests in major Shanghai transportation projects and owns the land on which the circuit was built. Juss has experimented with initiatives such as cutting ticket prices in order to attract more of a crowd and build a genuine local fanbase.

SPANISH GRAND PRIX BARCELONA / 11TH MAY
Held at the Circuit de Catalunya on the outskirts of Barcelona every year since 1991, the Spanish Grand Prix is a seemingly solid fixture on the Formula One world championship calendar, despite the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overall economic woes. The Barcelona event is the traditional starting point of the European season, after the initial flyaway races, even if there are fewer
108 l BLACK BOOK 2014
Grands Prix on the continent than in previous years. With all 11 teams based in Europe, it is the muchwelcomed start of a period of shorter journeys. Thanks to the exploits of national hero Fernando Alonso, the Spanish Grand Prix has become one of the most popular races on the calendar, with an atmosphere all of its own. Alonso swept to a classy victory in
2013 in front of a crowd of 94,831, the Ferrari star adding a touch of theatre before the race by jumping off the car parading him around the circuit to meet his public on a grassy verge. Over the weekend as a whole, some 218,331 people attended, up from the estimated 180,000 who came in 2012. Between 2008 and 2012, Spain staged two Grands Prix each year,

That event, oddly unloved by Formula One, was funded largely by the local Valencia government and was discontinued as the national and local economy slipped. Vague talk of a race share with Barcelona, in a vein similar to the model which has been made to work successfully in Germany where the Nurburgring and Hockenheim alternate as hosts, came to nought and it is Barcelona which
has again become the focus. The Circuit de Catalunya was first mooted in 1986, with ground broken on the facility three years later. The venue is owned and run by a consortium made up of the Catalan government, the Reial Automòbil Club de Catalunya (RACC) and the local Montmeló Town Council. In September 2013, the official name of the circuit was changed as a result of a new sponsorship deal between the circuit and Barcelona’s city council. It is now formally known as the Circuit de BarcelonaCatalunya, a move designed to bind
the tourist attractions of the city with the circuit, a connection which had bizarrely never previously been emphasised. “The city of Barcelona has a lot of strength and a great international projection, and therefore we believe that the new name, Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, will help us to boost the facilities much stronger, just as we have been doing in recent years with the promotion of the Formula One and MotoGP Grands Prix,” said Vicenç Aguilera, president of the Circuit de BarcelonaCatalunya Consortium, as the new name was confirmed. The consortium’s current deal with Formula One for the race, a long-term agreement signed in 2007, runs until after the 2016 race.

OFFICIALLY, THE ACM SELLS UP TO 40,000 TICKETS FOR THE RACE, BUT THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO WATCH IT IN PERSON CAN BE ANYWHERE UP TO 200,000. The annual race budget is around €35, which is part-funded directly by Monaco’s government. The logistical challenge of staging the Grand Prix in the principality each year is enormous but the ACM, working with a variety of local authorities, has honed the process over the decades. It is now a six-week job to install the 3,000 protective tyres, 23 kilometres of security rails, 700 metres of Tepco barriers, 20,000 square metres of wire netting and 1,100 tonnes’ worth of temporary grandstands. A team of 50 works on preparing the two-mile circuit and surrounding infrastructure each year. For race week itself – practice sessions for Formula One are traditionally held on Thursdays, originally so as not to disrupt Monte Carlo’s market day but now to fill the Friday ‘rest day’ with on-
112 l BLACK BOOK 2014
track activity for support races – some 650 marshals are on duty, stationed at 43 posts around the circuit and supported by nine cranes. 17 doctors and 40 first aid workers are also on standby. Officially, the ACM sells up to 40,000 tickets for the race, but the number of people who watch it in person can be anywhere up to 200,000. The circuit offers multiple, if costly, vantage points, from hotel rooftops, rented apartments overlooking the start-finish straight, and the hundreds of yachts which are moored in Port Hercule. Significantly cheaper viewing spots can be found on the rocks below the palace, overlooking the circuit. Hospitality is something of a free-for-all, although firm health and safety directives are in place in an attempt to maintain quality. The race is sanctioned and organised
by the Automobile Club de Monaco (ACM), a historic organisation which, because of the Grand Prix, is amongst the most prestigious in Monaco. Since 1972, the ACM has been headed by Michel Boeri. Elected for the first time when he was 32, and following in the footsteps of his father, Boeri has overseen every Monaco Grand Prix in that time. He will do so until at least 2016 when his current five-year term is set to end. In a rapidly changing world, Boeri has managed to keep much of what he believes makes the Monaco Grand Prix unique, not least the way it is organised. As he once told SportsPro: “There is a sense of glamour, we try to do things – not to be arrogant – special. This is tradition and before me all the presidents were the same. I have just arrived in a period where the acceleration of business and money, where travelling and TV has changed, so I have to look at that. We do not want to be promoters, we want to be an automobile club – with tradition, with rules”.
CANADIAN GRAND PRIX MONTREAL / 8TH JUNE
Few Formula One events are more popular than the annual trip across the Atlantic for the Canadian Grand Prix. Cosmopolitan Montreal has been the host for every year but two since 1978. Most recently, there was no Canadian race in 2009 after local

Despite its popularity, however, the long-term future of the Canadian Grand Prix has been shaky for well over a decade. The current deal, which began in 2010, runs out after the 2014 race. Under the existing terms, the Canadian and Quebec governments, plus the city of Montreal and its tourism offshoot, provide an annual investment of some CAN$15 million to stage the race. The Quebec government is responsible for CAN$4 million, with the city paying US$1 million. The Canadian government and Tourisme Montreal pay around US$5 million
116 l BLACK BOOK 2014
each, receiving a 30 per cent share of ticket sales revenue in return. At the 2013 race – won, inevitably, by Sebastian Vettel – Quebec Premier Pauline Marois seemed confident that a new deal, acceptable to all parties, would be agreed. She told the Montreal Gazette newspaper that talks were “going well”, adding: “I hope we will conclude an agreement. And I told Mr Ecclestone we need to conclude a winwin agreement.” For many years, Montreal was Formula One’s only North American stop. It remains to be seen what effect, if any, the hugely successful new event in Austin, Texas, will have on negotiations in Canada. Ecclestone, as history
has shown, is not afraid of playing hardball with Montreal’s promoters and government officials. He will likely expect an upgrade in facilities at the circuit, much of the infrastructure for which was built for the 1976 Olympic Games rowing regatta, before signing off on any new agreement. The 2013 Canadian Grand Prix was tragically marred by the death of track marshal Mark Robinson. Robinson, a member of the Automobile Club de L’Île Notre-Dame, was helping to remove the damaged car of Esteban Gutierrez after the race ended when he slipped while picking up a radio from the ground. He was then hit by the crane carrying the car back to the pits. It was the third fatal accident involving a marshal at a Grand Prix since 2000, following incidents at the 2000 Italian Grand Prix and the 2001 Australian race.

AUSTRIAN GRAND PRIX SPIELBERG / 22ND JUNE
The Austrian Grand Prix makes a surprising return to the Formula One schedule in 2014 after a decade-long absence. Its return has been funded by Red Bull, the energy drinks manufacturer deciding that it wants to stage races as well as win them. Its influence on the sport – and investment in it – is growing by the year.
118 l BLACK BOOK 2014
The first world championship Austrian Grand Prix at the Österreichring, which lies deep in the Austrian countryside some 200 kilometres from Vienna, took place in 1970, with the venue quickly developing a fearsome reputation. After the 1987 event, however, Austria dropped off the calendar, returning in 1997 at the
same, albeit heavily renovated and shortened, venue. The circuit, now known as the A1-Ring, was not a patch on the original but developed its own reputation as a good track on which to race. Most notable for its uphill run to turn one and surrounding greenery, it staged some memorable Grands Prix: in 1998, Michael Schumacher and

THE ADDITION OF ANOTHER EUROPEAN RACE TO THE FORMULA ONE CALENDAR RATHER BUCKS THE TREND OF RECENT TIMES. Mika Hakkinen waged a fierce battle for the lead; in 2002, Ferrari ordered Rubens Barrichello relinquish the lead to Schumacher at the final corner, and ended up facing a barrage of criticism as a result. After the 2003 event Austria disappeared from the calendar again, only for Red Bull, in July 2013, to announce plans for a return. In 2010 Dietrich Mateschitz’s company acquired the A1-Ring and set about revamping the facilities, investing a multi-million dollar sum. The venue’s name was duly changed to the Red Bull Ring. The Grand Prix is intended

as another global promotional vehicle for Red Bull; it can be safely assumed the company will take the title sponsorship rights. The addition of another European race to the Formula One calendar rather bucks the trend of recent times, which has seen new, largely governmentbacked Grands Prix in emerging markets such as China, Bahrain, Abu Dhabi, Singapore and Russia. Times are undoubtedly tough for Europe’s Formula One promoters, most of whom lack the kind of long-term financial support from government enjoyed in other parts of the world. The revived
race in Austria will be welcomed back to the calendar, but it is clear that the model underpinning its return – one of the world’s largest private spenders on sport stumping up the cash – is not one which can be replicated easily elsewhere. According to Austrian press reports in January, Red Bull have received all the necessary permits from local government to host the event – the rural venue creates an additional set of challenges in terms of logistics and surrounding infrastructure – and raise the capacity to 225,000 for the weekend. Under the previous regulations, the circuit would only have been allowed a crowd of 40,000 on race day. Ticket prices range from top-level weekend pit grandstand seats at €495 to a race day general admission, which will cost €85.

BRITISH GRAND PRIX SILVERSTONE / 6TH JULY
Silverstone hosted the first world championship Grand Prix in 1950 and has staged the British Grand Prix every year since 1987. During that period there have been highs – home victories for Nigel Mansell, Damon Hill, Johnny Herbert, David Coulthard and Lewis Hamilton – and lows. In particular, the decision to switch the race to Easter weekend in 2000, a move which resulted in transport chaos around the circuit with the fields used as car parks unable to cope with the predictably wet April weather, was a dreadful error. Similar problems marred the 2012 event, causing significant embarrassment to the British Racing Drivers’ Club (BRDC), which owns the rural Northamptonshire circuit, and Silverstone Circuits Ltd, which operates the venue. After a period of considerable uncertainty during the 2000s, with Bernie Ecclestone at one stage signing

THE NEED TO SELL EVERY TICKET POSSIBLE REMAINS THE BIGGEST PRIORITY FOR THE MANAGEMENT TEAM, LED BY RICHARD PHILLIPS. contracts to move the British Grand Prix to a redeveloped Donington Park, Silverstone finally secured the long-term contract for the race it had been seeking for some time in 2009. It is now in the middle of a 17-year deal – ten years, plus an option for seven more – which sees it pay an average of UK£17 million per year. Silverstone opened The Wing, a new UK£27 million pit and paddock complex, in 2011, part of a series of investments designed to keep Formula One and other major events such as MotoGP at the venue. The vast building was constructed to be as multi-purpose as possible, capable of hosting conventions and other MICE events as well as all forms of motorsport. Impressive though it may be on the
outside, The Wing has its critics – not least in the media, who are cocooned away in a windowless room somewhere deep in the middle of the building. A raft of further circuit and infrastructure upgrades are planned, although financing the various projects remains a significant issue for the BRDC. In September, the organisation announced it had completed deals for the development of land around the circuit and ‘agreed terms with a suitable partner to further develop and invest in the circuit’. MEPC, which is owned by the BT Pension Scheme, agreed to pay the BRDC UK£32 million for a 999-year lease to develop the area around the circuit, which includes the existing Silverstone Industrial Estate. The

BRDC, however, was unable to reveal the identity of its partner for the further development of the circuit, citing non-disclosure agreements. Months on, there has been no firm word on who the investor might be. The BRDC intends to use the UK£32 million investment to
pay off long and short-term loans from Lloyds Banking Group and Northamptonshire City Council. As the self-styled ‘home of British motorsport’ Silverstone’s seasonal calendar includes a host of national championships, as well as rounds of the World Endurance
Championship and the MotoGP world championship. Formula One is, by some distance, the circuit’s biggest event of the year; despite a more rosy financial outlook, the need to sell every ticket possible remains the biggest priority for the management team, led by Richard Phillips.

GERMAN GRAND PRIX HOCKENHEIM / 20TH JULY
Hockenheim takes its turn to host Germany’s annual Grand Prix in 2014, as it continues its race-sharing arrangement with the Nürburgring, the country’s other Formula One-standard circuit. The two venues have shared the race since 2007; the Nürburgring
126 l BLACK BOOK 2014
has the odd-numbered years and Hockenheim, located roughly in between Frankfurt and Stuttgart in the west of Germany, the evens. The decision to alternate venues came after a spell of 13 years when Germany hosted two Grands Prix per
year. The sport was going through a golden period in the country, with Michael Schumacher dominant and manufacturers’ Mercedes-Benz and BMW highly competitive. During that time, the Nürburgring event ran under the title of European Grand Prix. When
Catching flying debris Geobrugg Security Engineering made its debut in 2010 in the race circuit market with the first Geobrugg Debris Fence installed at the Circuit Dijon-Prenois, France. The Circuit Dijon-Prenois (also known for hosting the last Swiss Grand Prix) was ideally suited to a Swiss company entering the motorsport arena. Many circuits followed suit and upgraded their safety fencing to the new and only “officially-tested” state-of-the-art debris fence. Some of the more well-known circuits include: Sepang International Circuit, Malaysia; Circuit of the Americas, USA; Yas Marina Circuit, UAE and many more. But first things first – Geobrugg AG has been well known for years as the world leader in rockfall barriers. Geobrugg entered an R&D relationship with the FIA Institute to test existing debris fence barriers and to develop a new debris fence barrier that would bring the safety standard to a new level. In cooperation with the FIA Institute’s Head of Research, Hubert Gramling, Geobrugg tested different systems and setups over a two year period – the result, an “officially tested” Geobrugg Debris Fence that really does take performance and safety to a new level! Marcel Dünner, General Manager Geobrugg Security Engineering and Jochen Braunwarth, Global Product Manager Motosport fencing answer questions on their involvement in the industry.
Questions & Answers Black Book: Mr. Dünner, why did Geobrugg enter the Motorsport area? Dünner: “Motor Sport Racing in general is one of the most spectacular sports which you can view as a spectator. A lot of people gather at motor sport events to enjoy a wonderful day together. Helping the organizer to increase the safety of those events for spectators and drivers motivated us to develop a new standard of safety systems. The request to enhance the security level at race circuits while also providing a better viewing experience for spectators was seen as the challenge for Geobrugg wich has been sucessfully achieved.”
Black Book: What are your expectations for 2014? Dünner: “After the installation of the fencing at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin TX, we look forward to realizing our next project at a new Formula 1 race circuit. We also have other projects in Australia, Brazil, China and Russia in our project pipeline. Our goal is to build two complete race tracks with our FIA approved Debris Fence.”
Black Book: Mr. Braunwarth, what is your position within Geobrugg? Braunwarth: “As product manager I am responsible for consulting with clients, finding the best and most suitable solution for the realization of projects starting from the first e-Mail, phone call or meeting to the completion of the project and the final handover. During the project I am the single point of contact making sure that everything runs smoothly and to the full satisfaction of the client. If necessary different specialists are involved during the project phase.”
Black Book: What are the biggest challenges during a project? Braunwarth: “Time! In most cases the time required to actually build the barrier is longer than expected. The biggest challenge is to make sure that the customer plans the project accurate and in advance. This is important for realistic timing which not only concerns the customer but also the manufacturer and construction companies involved.”
Black Book: What about any recent developments? Braunwarth: “We are constantly improving our barriers with new features. In 2014 we are going to develop a gate, which can be mounted on our standard end posts. This will ensure easy access to the circuit. Developments can be followed on our website geobrugg.com and we are always ready to face new challenges from our customers.”

HOCKENHEIM, WHICH HAS A SIGNIFICANT HISTORY HAVING HOSTED ITS FIRST GERMAN GRAND PRIX IN 1970, APPEARS TO HAVE WEATHERED THE STORM. Valencia joined the calendar in 2008, however, and as the global economic situation worsened, it was concluded that Germany could no longer sustain two races per year. Amidst dwindling attendances, especially in the period immediately after Schumacher’s first retirement in 2006, both the Nürburgring and Hockenheim reported financial difficulties; in 2013 the long-term future of the Nürburgring, Germany’s most famous motorsport venue, was decidedly shaky. In the build-up to the 2013 Grand Prix, it was rumoured that Bernie Ecclestone had waived the €14 million annual race fee in order to safeguard the race. Although that is understood not to be the case, it is believed he made allowances to ensure that one
128 l BLACK BOOK 2014
of the sport’s most historic venues remained on the calendar – at least this time around. In March, motorsport firm Capricorn acquired the circuit and surrounding facilities for a sum of €100 million (US$139.25 million). Hockenheim, which has its own significant history having hosted its first German Grand Prix in 1970, appears to have weathered the storm, despite the fact that the 2012 event only attracting a race day crowd of 59,000, less than half the 120,000 capacity. It hosts a variety of championships throughout the year, notably the very popular DTM series. The Hockenheimring underwent major renovation work in 2001, which saw the track shortened significantly. The new layout is undoubtedly safer than the four-plus mile original, which
saw the track pierce through deep forest before a return leg to the stadium section, but lacks some of its character. The cheapest seat in the stadium section, or motodrome, in 2014 costs €99, with ticket-holders also gaining free access to other parts of the circuit, notably the overtaking-friendly hairpin halfway round the lap. Hockenheim’s contract runs for alternate years until 2018. The deal ‘includes an agreement where the Formula One Administration (FOA) and the Hockenheim-Ring GmbH will share participation in the entrepreneurial opportunities and risks of the event’, according to the circuit management. In line with other Formula One venues in Europe, a combination of escalating annual race fees and ticketing as the only form of Grand Prix-related income has contrived to make the hosting of the German Grand Prix, at either circuit, a very tricky proposition indeed.

HUNGARIAN GRAND PRIX BUDAPEST / 27TH JULY
The Hungarian Grand Prix has been on the Formula One calendar for a generation and is now a mainstay of the annual schedule. Only Monaco and Monza have enjoyed longer uninterrupted spells in the series – Hungary has held a race every year since 1986. The Hungaroring – the tight, twisty dustbowl which hosts the race – is by no means a classic circuit, but it has a charm all of its own and provides an unusually technical challenge for
130 l BLACK BOOK 2014
teams and drivers at the height of the summer. The race has made its late-July or early-August slot its own and has certainly benefited from a consistent date over the years. The circuit’s proximity to one of Europe’s great cities, Budapest – it lies on the far outskirts – also has a hand in ensuring a good annual crowd, made up of an eclectic group of fans from across the continent. Finnish fans have traditionally flocked there to support the likes of Mika Hakkinen, Kimi
Raikkonen, Heikki Kovalainen and Valterri Bottas. Few circuits offer as much of a view: thanks to its location in a natural dip, some 80 per cent of the track is visible from any position. Hungary’s place in the calendar until 2021 was assured at the 2013 race when Formula One Management chief executive Bernie Ecclestone put pen to paper on a new contract with circuit and city officials. The terms of the new fiveyear deal, which runs from 2016
CIRCUITS / 2
CIRCUITS
until 2021, were not revealed but it is safe to assume that Hungarian authorities, while paying a multimillion dollar amount, will have been charged a lower rate than the newer races on the Formula One calendar
to continue staging Hungary’s largest annual sporting event. As Zsolt Gyulay, circuit president and chief executive, puts it: “For close to three decades now, the Hungaroring has been an integral part of a monumental
racing series, in which everything must be second to none and where Mr. Ecclestone’s approving nods are strictly reserved for the best of the best only.” Gyulay added: “The Hungaroring is one of the world’s 19 racing circuits where Grands Prix are being held – this is a fact that cannot be understated and for which no praise is too excessive. Such a privilege does not come easily; we therefore relentlessly strive to give 100 per cent in everything we do, in order to respond to increasing expectations.” A multi-million dollar spruce-up is planned. For the 2014 Formula One race, a standard-priced pit grandstand ticket will cost €498, although fans can attend the race for just €90 with a general admission ticket. In line with all Formula One circuits, organisers have offered a range of discounts for early ticket-buyers.

BELGIAN GRAND PRIX SPA-FRANCORCHAMPS / 24TH AUGUST
Spa-Francorchamps is the historic home of Belgium’s annual Grand Prix, hosting its first race as long ago as 1925. Brief stints followed at the unloved Nivelles circuit and Zolder, the latter staging Grands Prix between 1975 and 1982, then one last time in 1984, but think of Formula One in Belgium and it is Spa, flowing uphill and down through the Ardennes Forest, which first springs to mind. The circuit is regarded as amongst the greatest challenges in the sport – Eau Rouge has remained one of Formula One’s most spectacular locations – but, financially, the circuit has been walking a tightrope for well over a decade. Twice during that period, between 2003 and 2006, the Grand Prix has not taken place, with the complex arrangements between local promoters and various regional government officials resulting in several headaches. In August 2012, some kind
132 l BLACK BOOK 2014
“I THINK FORMULA ONE NEEDS CIRCUITS LIKE SPA-FRANCORCHAMPS AND FOR THE PRESTIGE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO KEEP THE GRAND PRIX.” of stability was found after the local government of Walloon, the region in which Spa sits, confirmed a three-year contract, ensuring Formula One will continue to visit until at least 2015. Although unconfirmed, it is believed organisers were able to secure a discounted annual race fee to keep the event on the calendar. Locally, the Formula One event is organised by a company called Spa Grand Prix, run by Andre Maes. Spa Grand Prix effectively hires the circuit for three weeks of the year from its sister firm, public company Le Circuit du Spa Francorchamps, which is responsible for running the circuit for the rest of the year. As Le Circuit de Spa Francorchamps’
managing and sales director PierreAlain Thibaut explains, the challenges of running a motorsport circuit 365 days a year go far beyond the annual investment in staging a Formula One race. Under its environmental licence, the circuit can only be used between 15th March and 15th November. In between, the venue hosts about 20 race meetings, plus track days and corporate events. Non-track events take place either in the recently renovated Formula One pit buildings or in the older, smaller facilities further down the hill, known as the endurance zone. Spa’s status as the longest of the current Grand Prix circuits – it is 4.3 miles long when most circuits are around the three-mile mark – means
CIRCUITS Thibaut, however, reports that the circuit is in “pretty good” financial shape and insists that a new contract for Formula One is crucial to the venue and the wider region. “I think it’s important for Formula One and I think it’s important for the circuit, because our circuit is one of the oldest in the world, one of the most prestigious. I think Formula One needs circuits like Spa-Francorchamps
and for the prestige it is very important for Spa-Francorchamps to keep the Grand Prix. “It’s also very, very important [for Belgium] and particularly in Wallonia. The Grand Prix is the most important event that happens, the biggest international event in Belgium and in our region. It’s very important for the economy and also to give the region a position on the world map.”

that one of the largest financial outlays each year is maintenance. “It costs a lot of money to maintain all the site, all the infrastructures,” says Thibaut. “It costs a lot of money to maintain it in good condition, because of the winter. The winter is really hard – we have snow and we can have snow until 15th March. It’s a challenge to finance the maintenance of the track and the infrastructure.”

The famous Autodromo, still the quickest circuit on the calendar in terms of average speed, lies in Monza Park, which is jointly owned by the cities of Monza and Milan. It is operated by SIAS, the Automobile Club of Italy’s dedicated motorsport
promotions division. The majority of SIAS is owned by the club, with 30 per cent in the hands of an estate agency. Monza was built in just 110 days in 1922. After a break for World War II, the circuit resumed activities in 1948 – with the high-speed banked oval as dangerous and challenging a test as Grand Prix motor-racing has had.
CIRCUITS THANKS TO THE FERRARI LINK AND THE MAGNIFICENT ATMOSPHERE, THE ITALIAN GRAND PRIX ADDS PLENTY TO THE FORMULA ONE BRAND EACH YEAR. Although the number ebbs and flows with the Italian economy, up to 14,000 guests are catered for in hospitality areas at the Italian Grand Prix. At the other end of the scale, the parkland surrounding the circuit has around 34,000 square metres of space for camping. The president of the circuit is Carlo Edoardo Valli, while the day-to-day management of the annual Formula One race is in the hands of the experienced Federico Bendinelli. In July last year, Bendinelli said he was confident about
Monza’s Formula One future, saying of Bernie Ecclestone, “I only know that he abides by contracts, always, and ours runs up to and including 2016. “I’m also not worried in any major way about the future, as we are already in negotiations to extend the contract.” Monza is believed to pay a significantly lower fee than many Formula One venues, even those in Europe. Thanks to the Ferrari link and the magnificent atmosphere, the Italian Grand Prix adds plenty to the Formula One brand each year.

Thrilling slipstreamed finishes were the order of the day. By the late 1970s, however, the long straights and sweeping curves had been interrupted by chicanes. The chicanes themselves have now been tweaked, most recently in 2000 when the Rettifilo, the first chicane, was remodelled. Newer pit buildings have also been added over the years to ensure Monza’s place on the calendar is not called into question. Officials have generally got the balance between modernising facilities and retaining the unique Monza atmosphere just right. It is one of the most talked-about events of the year, especially if a Ferrari driver remains in world championship contention by the time its traditional September date comes around.

to the Singapore Flyer big wheel, was constructed ahead of the first Grand Prix in 2008, following confirmation the previous year of an agreement between local authorities and Formula One. The race is run via a public/ private partnership, with the Singapore government and local billionaire Ong Beng Seng combining to bring Formula One to one of south-east Asia’s business and tourism hubs. The government funds 60 per cent of the annual cost – the annual installation of safety equipment and lighting is particularly expensive; the overall cost of the event, including track set-up and the annual race fee, is believed to be well over US$100 million – with the rest covered by Ong’s private company, Singapore GP Pte Ltd. An extension to the original seven-year agreement was signed and announced in September 2012, confirming the event will be run until at least 2017. It is believed Singapore negotiated some kind of reduction on the US$50 million it was reported to be paying Formula One per year, although that is unconfirmed. Despite the undoubted publicity boost the event offers the city-state, the government is believed to have looked at ways to reduce the annual cost. A permanent circuit or a shorter version of the current layout have both been mooted, but with the race already having become such a firm favourite it becomes more difficult by the year to make a substantial change. At the same time, Singapore’s Sports Council has been developing other ways to generate tourism, business and international interest through sport: the opening of the multi-purpose Singapore Sports Hub this year opens up opportunities for major event bids in a variety of sports which may, at some point, have an effect on the investment in an annual Grand Prix. That said, Singapore has probably never looked better than when Formula One cars are racing through its streets under the lights. Formula One has rarely looked as spectacular, either.

Built in 1962, Japan’s first motorsport circuit remains not just the best in the country but one of the best in the world: there are few more technical, challenging, thrilling layouts in Formula One. Suzuka has a special place on the schedule, not least as the venue for several dramatic world championship deciders, although it only staged its first Grand Prix in 1987. The importance of Suzuka to Formula One was never better underlined than in the two years, 2007 and 2008, when the Japanese Grand Prix was switched to Toyotaowned Fuji Speedway. Despite a good layout and excellent facilities at
140 l BLACK BOOK 2014
Fuji, the season didn’t feel the same without a visit to Suzuka. Thankfully, a substantial refurbishment of Suzuka’s pit facilities and grandstands was followed by its reinstatement onto the calendar in 2009. The popularity of Formula One in Japan tends to ebb and flow with the level of national involvement in the championship. In the past ten years, crowds have flocked to the circuit to watch local heroes Takuma Sato and Kamui Kobayashi, the latter securing his only podium finish to date at the 2012 Japanese Grand Prix, and to support the likes of Honda and Toyota. Honda’s return in 2015 with McLaren may well
provide another peak, especially as it evokes memories of Ayrton Senna, a driver revered by Japanese fans in the late 80s and early 90s. A company called Suzuka Circuitland Co Ltd operated the circuit, and the Motopia theme park which lies at the back of the main pit grandstand, until 2006. At that point a new company, was founded – Mobilityland Corporation – reflecting the merger between Suzuka Circuitland and Twin Ring Motegi Co, the operators of another Japanese circuit which hosts the Japanese round of the MotoGP world championship. Mobilityland Corporation remains 100

per cent owned by Honda Motor Co. In 2009, Mobilityland officials negotiated a new three-year contract to stage the Japanese Formula One Grand Prix at Suzuka. In March 2011 that deal was extended by a further year, guaranteeing the 2012 race, for a fee of around US$20 million. In August 2013, Mobilityland officials travelled to London and secured a new five-year contract, which runs until 2018. “It is great to see Honda back in Formula One in 2015,” Bernie Ecclestone, Formula One Management’s chief executive, was quoted as saying when the new contract was signed. “I am sure that the Japanese Grand Prix will attract greater attention than ever.” Mobilityland president Hiroshi Soda added: “It is with great pleasure we have signed a formal contract after having had negotiations since we reached a basic agreement in March. “We will continue to work hard to ensure Suzuka remains a venue loved by fans the world over.”

RUSSIAN GRAND PRIX SOCHI / 12TH OCTOBER
Sochi, the 52nd largest city in Russia, will host the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first Grand Prix this October, just months after the coastal resort on the Black Sea hosted the winter Olympic Games. The circuit will wend its way around the Olympic Park venues constructed specially for the Games and comes after Formula One chief executive Bernie

Ecclestone shook hands on a deal with Russian president Vladimir Putin in October 2010. An initial seven-year agreement, until 2020, was struck, with an option for a further five. For Putin, the race is part of a wider legacy plan for Sochi, which will stage games at the 2018 Fifa World Cup, and aims to become a year-round resort: the city sits
on the same latitude as Monte Carlo, but now has state-of-the-art winter facilities, both indoors and in the nearby mountain region of Rosa Khutor. For Formula One it is the latest move into a major emerging market, with Russia following in the footsteps of the United Arab Emirates, China and India. Getting the sport into

THE MODEL FOR THE RUSSIAN GRAND PRIX IS SIMILAR TO THAT WHICH SAW VALENCIA STAGE A EUROPEAN GRAND PRIX BETWEEN 2008 AND 2012.
Russia has been a long-term aim for Ecclestone; he once dallied with a plan to stage a race in Moscow, before settling on Sochi. The model for the Russian Grand Prix is similar to that which saw Valencia stage a European Grand Prix between 2008 and 2012. As in Spain’s third city, which hosted the America’s Cup in 2007, much of the key infrastructure is in place. Unlike Valencia, however, the
144 l BLACK BOOK 2014
organisers in Sochi – the OJSC Center Omega organisation – are building a pit and paddock complex from scratch. “The hosting of the Formula One race opens up fresh commercial perspectives [and] the opportunity to attract more Russian and foreign tourists by extending the holiday season in southern Russia,” said Oleg Zabara, the deputy general director of OJSC Center Omega, as the race’s October date was announced last year. The 5.8km track, like virtually all new or revised venues in Formula One, is the vision of Hermann Tilke. Around 900 workers were on site each day at the end of 2013, resuming work once the winter Games had concluded in February. In late 2013, the Formula Sochi company which is promoting the race confirmed it had appointed Rasgaira, the consultancy company run by
experienced circuit manager Richard Cregan to get the government-funded event off the ground. Cregan, who has run the Yas Marina circuit in Abu Dhabi for the past five years, was posted to Sochi immediately to begin work. “I am convinced that the Formula One Russian Grand Prix will become one of the iconic events in the Formula One calendar and we will be able to build a very successful business by utilising the amazing assets and the passion of the team here in Sochi,” he said in January. The Formula One community has become well accustomed in recent years to visiting new markets that are rich in potential but short on motorsport heritage, but there have been varying levels of success. Organisers have their work cut out to ensure Sochi is bracketed with the likes of Abu Dhabi and Singapore, rather than Valencia or Korea.

UNITED STATES GRAND PRIX AUSTIN / 2ND NOVEMBER
After a five-year break following the last Grand Prix at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in 2007, Formula One returned to the United States in November 2012 at the built-forpurpose Circuit of the Americas (COTA). Located just outside Austin,
146 l BLACK BOOK 2014
the capital of Texas, COTA is the first US motorsport facility to be built primarily for Formula One. Two races in, it has proved a popular venue and looks set to be the long-term home of the sport in the United States, whatever ultimately becomes of the
proposed, but still rather sketchy, event in New Jersey. The 2013 crowd was slightly down on the first event a year earlier, although the six-figure total was still highly impressive â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 113,162 spectators attended compared to 117,429 in
CIRCUIT OF THE AMERICAS HAS PROVED A POPULAR VENUE AND LOOKS SET TO BE THE LONG-TERM HOME OF THE SPORT IN THE UNITED STATES. 2012. The fall may have been partly a result of the lack of a championship battle in 2013. The three-day crowd in 2013 was 250,324 compared to 265,499 a year earlier. Frustratingly for everyone involved in trying to popularise Formula One in the United States, the first two Grands Prix in Texas were scheduled on the same day as Nascar Sprint Cup races in other parts of the country. For 2014 the situation is even worse: the race falls on the same day as the Sprint Cup event at Texas Motor Speedway, a venue just over 200 miles away from COTA. “Formula One race organisers set race dates and locations according to a global calendar with incredible scheduling and logistical considerations,” said Bobby
148 l BLACK BOOK 2014
Epstein, the chairman of COTA and one of the driving forces behind getting the event off the ground. “We are pleased that our date falls on a weekend that doesn’t conflict with any major conventions scheduled for Austin, due to the impact that kind of overlap could have on hotel availability. “Due to the large number of Nascar events scheduled annually, there will occasionally be overlaps with events at Circuit of The Americas, and that will happen next year [2014]. “Many members of the public were concerned that our first Formula One race fell on the same date as the season-ending Nascar race in Florida, and it proved to be a non-issue,” he continued. “Ultimately, we see this as
a great opportunity to draw sports fans around the world to Texas and to prove again that Austin is the place to enjoy premium racing and entertainment.” Aside from the Formula One race, COTA has already developed an enviable portfolio of events to help it realise its business model. The circuit hosts the US round of the MotoGP world championship and a round of the World Endurance Championship. In 2014, meanwhile, it is making its debut as the host of ESPN’s muchadmired X-Games action sports event, which is switching from its long-time home in Los Angeles. Former Tampa Bay Buccaneers and P&G executive Jason Dial joined COTA in the newly created position of president in September; by November he had switched to chief executive following the departure of Steve Sexton, who had held the role since the circuit opened.
BRAZILIAN GRAND PRIX SAO PAULO / 9TH NOVEMBER
Located deep in the heart of sprawling São Paulo, one of the world’s most populous cities, Interlagos is perhaps the most atmospheric stop on the Formula One circuit. A passionate crowd and a popular circuit, despite pit and paddock facilities which now fall well below the Formula One standard across the world, make the Brazilian
152 l BLACK BOOK 2014
Grand Prix one of the highlights of any season. Interlagos has staged some of the sport’s most dramatic races, many of which have had extra spice as world championship deciders. Interlagos staged its first Grand Prix in 1972. An original iteration of the current circuit staged the race each year until 1980. After a decade in Rio de
Janeiro, the event returned to Brazil’s largest city in 1990, albeit on a much shorter version of the track – upgrade work cost US$15 million. Although decried by drivers who raced on both as lacking the challenge of the original, the new circuit is regarded as one of the best of the modern bunch. The layout and the
often unpredictable weather usually contrive to produce an exciting race. At the end of 2013, the company which organises the Grand Prix – Interpro, formally International Promotions – was given the award for the best-organised Formula One event of the season. It was the second time the Brazilian Grand Prix has taken the accolade following a first victory in 2005. Interpro organises the event, although there is strong support from São Paulo Turismo, the city’s municipal business, tourism and events arm. Although there is a strong Brazilian flavour to the crowds – some 49,522 people attended qualifying for the 2013 race; no figures were made available for the race – a tourism study
in 2012 found that some 11 per cent of fans attending are non-Brazilians. Brazil’s current Formula One contract was due to come to an end with the 2014 race but in October an extension was confirmed until 2020. Although early-stage discussions were reportedly held with other cities, notably Rio de Janeiro, which staged the Grand Prix between 1981 and 1989, Interlagos will remain as host, assuming it completes a major refurbishment and builds a new pit and paddock complex. Authorities announced a plan in July 2013 for the major upgrades. A new three-storey pit facility will be built on what is currently the back straight of the 2.6-mile circuit. The
new facility will include 40 hospitality boxes, while a new control tower, press centre and podium will be built into the design. Some track changes are planned as a result, as the area marked for construction is close to a lake, while grandstands will also be improved. Local reports suggest the renovations will be funded largely by São Paulo’s tourism ministry rather than the municipal government itself, because the government cannot afford to finance the project on its own. The Grand Prix is believed to generate an economic impact of some US$100 million. The renovations are slated to cost some US$71 million and will secure the longer-term future of one of Formula One’s best events.

ABU DHABI GRAND PRIX YAS MARINA / 23RD NOVEMBER
There will likely never be a Formula One circuit built to better Yas Marina in terms of facilities. The product of a wider government investment in sport, tourism and international brand-building, the venue, which lies on the manmade US$40 billion Yas Island, an all-new leisure, residential and commercial hub, has raised the bar to a level few, if any, will be able to match. Its construction, in time for a debut Grand Prix in 2009, was in all likelihood the high watermark of Formula One venue design. The only disappointment is the track layout,
154 l BLACK BOOK 2014
WITH MONEY SEEMINGLY NO OBJECT, THERE IS NO DANGER OF THE ABU DHABI GRAND PRIX FALLING OFF THE CALENDAR. which is not one of Formula One’s effective in-house designer Hermann Tilke’s finest pieces of work. Facilities and new attractions have been growing around the circuit since that first race in 2009. Yas Island now boasts seven hotels, two championship golf courses, a soon to be opened shopping mall, the Yas Waterworld water park and Ferrari World, a rather
garish scarlet red building housing an amusement park which the Italian manufacturer opened in 2010. The marina, manmade but always full during race weekend, has room for 192 boats, ranging from eight to 150 metres. The circuit is flanked by the Yas Viceroy Hotel, which lights up as night falls during the Grand Prix – largely for the benefit of European television viewers,

the local start-time is 5pm with the sun setting during the first hour of the race. Abu Dhabi Motorsport Management, which operates the circuit and has turned it into a vibrant community centre through a combination of track events, concerts and leisure initiatives, has undergone a major change ahead of the 2014
Grand Prix. Irishman Richard Cregan, a former Toyota team manager who has run the circuit as chief executive since 2009, stepped down from his position at the turn of the year, to oversee the management of the new Russian Grand Prix in Sochi. Although Cregan will remain an advisor to Abu Dhabi, his guidance and steady
hand will be much missed by a venue which has quickly come to host one of the standout races of the season, at least from a corporate perspective. A replacement had yet to be appointed as January turned to February. With money seemingly no object, there is no danger of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix falling off the calendar. First announced in 2007, the emirate is coming to the end of its first seven-year deal for the race; the 2014 edition will be its sixth Grand Prix. A new deal for 2016 onwards should be imminent. Abu Dhabi hosted the final race of the season in 2009 and 2010, the latter a championship decider, and will do so again in 2014. In a controversial and unpopular change to Formula Oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s scoring system, the race, as the final round of the championship, will be worth double points to drivers and constructors. It is a rather ham-fisted way for the sport to try and secure a final-race title showdown.

Q & A with President and Founder of Mackey Marketing Group, Inc., a motorsport marketing firm located in Atlanta, Georgia. Brian Mackey outlines his vision and insights for what he sees as a significant shift in motorsport marketing strategies and practices. Brian, for primarily our European based readers, introduce yourself and your agency. Mackey Marketing Group was founded in 1986 here in Atlanta, Georgia. We’ve specialized in motorsport marketing every day since. There are very few independent American-based agencies that have specialized in this one segment of event marketing longer than we have. While many Europeans may not be familiar with my agency, I am proud to say that I am personally familiar with Europe. I spent most of my teen years living in England. It was a tremendous experience and it was during those years that I became a fan of motorsport, with a distinctly Europeanbased introduction to the sport. How is Mackey Marketing Group different? We’re a boutique agency with a baseline of experience that leads us to our current analysis of where the focus of the sport is today as well as moving forward. If I were to single out one aspect of our agency, it would be our overall emphasis on understanding marketing’s role in motorsport promotion. I understand the fluid nature of marketing in general and motorsports in particular and how it can impact future thinking. We’re at a point that what worked in the past is being shoved aside and replaced by more modern applications of event marketing that will resonate more strongly among race fans and associated audiences into the future.
promotions were devoted to motor racing. In most aspects, it still is. But much of that “20th century” focus was directed toward generating an “exposure” value emphasis and top of mind awareness. In recent years, the strategies required to achieve a more specific menu of objectives have evolved and motorsport marketing has had to evolve with it. It’s not primarily or singularly about exposure any more. It’s about a multi-channel and interactive set of activities that involves the race fan from race day to every day of the week. It’s a highly personal course of action that is devoted to creating an environment that will enhance a race fan’s experience with motorsports in fundamentally new and interactive ways.
The key thing to realize is that change is around the corner. With the rapid pace of technology and how it can be used to integrate and interact with the race fan audience, we are witnessing the very beginning of a revolution of sorts, a significant change in the way a sponsor partner utilizes motorsports as a marketing “vehicle” and the marketing capabilities that can come about as a result of participation.
Has your “European” upbringing helped you in your motorsport marketing career?
With all that in mind, why would a sponsor or motorsport entity utilize your services?
Interestingly, I’d have to say yes, in unintentional ways. I have often quipped that I speak English but I’m also fluent in American! Having a British education and a European introduction to the sport, while equally developing my motorsport marketing career as an American, is a unique set of circumstances. It made me aware of differences that might exist in the tone and approach of an international motorsport promotion. An awareness of these subtle variations can help international entities present a more “fluent” and seamless campaign in the U.S.
The simple answer is specialization. At Mackey Marketing, we’ve spent the past 27 years directly involved with the daily understanding of this sport and its marketing capabilities. We’ve worked with numerous companies from high profile corporations involved at the premier levels of the sport including NASCAR and INDYCAR, to more grass-roots campaigns at a more local level. And the critical aspect that I have taken away from these experiences is that from a marketing perspective, motorsports will achieve its best results when there is a realization that the promotion itself is the fundamental element to focus on and not on singularly capturing “exposure” values. Get the promotion right and the other elements will more easily fall into place. It’s the difference between a static and passive promotion strategy to a more vivid and interactive one. That subtle change in perspective will have significant ramifications for the sport, for the sponsors and for the teams/drivers for seasons to come.
What do you mean?
How would you define the state of the sport from a marketing standpoint today?
Well, for years motorsport marketing was often considered the most successful application of event marketing ever created. Motorsport was one of the world’s primary event marketing platforms and many sponsor dollars and corporate
We are on the cusp of a seismic shift in motorsport marketing capabilities. It is an exciting time for motor racing and I see a very bright future. More engagement from a fan’s perspective will mean a much higher and stronger capability for
the sport to have a greater impact on a sponsor’s involvement and what can be achieved through a skilful use of motorsport marketing strategies. How do you see the future of motorsport marketing and promotion?
Win in Texas No Matter Where You Finish We see racing from your perspective. We help you gain insights and generate forward momentum that will drive your marketing objectives ahead. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why we focus our 25+ years of specialized experience on developing modern, relevant and thematic promotional programs designed to help you redeďŹ ne the boundaries of your motorsport marketing capabilities. Give us a call today to see how we can help you drive your business objectives wheel-to-wheel with your drive to win.

ODYSSO: THE DREAM-MAKERS EVER DREAMED ABOUT DESIGNING YOUR OWN CAR? DREAM NO LONGER. It is the stuff of childhood dreams: the ability to design, from scratch, your own car, perfectly tailored to your every need and whim. And it is now possible, thanks to a Germanbased engineering and manufacturing company called Odysso.
274 l BLACK BOOK 2014
“We are most probably the youngest automotive brand in the world,” says chief executive Michael Emrich, before explaining the rationale behind the company. “It was based on our professional background. We have been working in the automotive field for quite some years, in the premium or luxury segment, and together with people who are very demanding and show individuality
but on the car side, there is not the individuality that you can with art, or architecture or luxury jewellery, where you really have only one piece or a very bespoke piece. Odysso offers something beyond the number of companies which can tune, develop and individualise existing high-end vehicles. As Emrich puts it: “Why not fulfil the wishes or desire of some people by creating their own
STYLE
the engineering expertise comes from Andreas Puschel. Odysso’s chief engineer, Puschel explains the process of building a bespoke super-car. “The first and most difficult stage is to get the ideas of the customer summarised to a specification sheet,” Puschel explains. “You can start with a platform – if, say, you want to build up the platform of a Ferrari – or you can start with a white sheet of paper. There’s no limit to what kind of technical base you can have, so you can create any kind of car – a sports car, an SUV – based on different technologies. “How to get close to the customer’s vision? At the beginning we have our own designers and stylists and they sit with the customer to get his car into a design. Some customers have very defined ideas of what they want, others are completely free – you can start with some sketches we provide, or you can choose to get your own ideas into something which already exists. “The styling starts to exist and become more real,” Puschel continues. “We also put his technical ideas together – choice of the engine, electronics, multimedia equipment, two or fourwheel drive, the general car concept. We do all that very closely with the customer, on a specification sheet. That will go into our technical department,
who make it real. There are some points that have to come together: his ideas, his budget, the platforms, any special desire for a brand, whether the car should remind him of something. All that comes together.” Odysso’s team of designers and simulation engineers then move into action; a tooling and manufacturing process begins, followed by the production of the car itself and a sustained period of testing. “The customer is involved in the whole process,” Puschel says. “At every stage it is possible for him to move the direction in which the development is going, along with our experts.” At this point, other factors such as registration and homologation in the country or countries where the car will be used are taken into consideration – although, as Emrich points out, in some cases the status of Odysso clients will be such that they can bypass such rules, or even change them. Every project is, of course, different, with Puschel estimating that the most complex, where the starting point is a clean sheet of paper, can take up to two years. Where an existing model of car is the starting point, projects can be completed in around half a year. “I would say we are still in the process of establishing ourselves

bespoke automobile and a vehicle which exists only once in the world? “The [rest of the car] industry is not ready or prepared to handle such individual demands from their customers. Although some companies already have an individualisation department, these are more or less interior equipment – some have exterior possibilities. But to build an outstanding, bespoke one-off, manufacturers are not prepared. Within their lean, organised processes, individuality is not [possible] anymore.” Emrich has spent 35 years in the automotive industry, in international marketing and corporate strategies. If he is providing the business angle,
in the market,” Emrich suggests. “We have a few projects in the pipeline, a few one-off projects. For some customers we are doing some concept and development processes; for an Arabic royal family we are doing individualisation of some very premium vehicles where we are including technical features which have never been in a car like this. This is to establish our position as a technical expert doing very outstanding and bespoke projects for very demanding customers. “Our capacity is limited. We cannot do 20 one-offs in a year and
276 l BLACK BOOK 2014
we won’t do that,” he adds. “In our very young lifetime, we could not have finished one one-off yet – one can take about two years. “What makes us different from other companies in the so-called tuning world, or in the individualisation areas, is really the technical competence we have, in the person of Andreas and his background,” Emrich adds. “He can design a car from scratch – it’s what he did in the past and it’s what he’s doing today. We are not just refitters of materials or adding spoilers, we can do a car from scratch. We do a very thorough engineering and design
process. And this is what we think the customer wants, rather than something where 50 or even 10 other cars that are the same exist. “If a car, like the current Lamborghini, costs around €2 million, they may only make nine cars – but it’s still nine cars. For almost the same price – a little bit more – you can have a car from us that is one of only one in the world. This is individuality – not buying a car for €2.5 million and driving round the corner and seeing another one. “This is really for those people who demand very outstanding and the purest form of individuality and exclusivity. We are the partner to realise their dreams: you can create your own car. The customer is driving the value chain in our company and he is the master of the value chain for his own product. The point is it’s unique – we are addressing, of course, a certain group of people who have ego and really want it and, of course, they have the money. If you really want to be unique in the automotive field, we are your partners.”

TIME TO RACE FORMULA ONE HAS A MAGNETIC PULL ON THE WORLDâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S MOST STYLISH COMPANIES. IN 2014, THERE ARE MORE WATCHMAKERS ON THE GRID THAN WORLD CHAMPIONS. In a sport where timing is crucial and style is all-important, it is no surprise that many of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leading watchmakers have attached themselves to Formula One teams. Nine of the 11 teams on the grid in 2014 have a relationship with a watch manufacturer, while a tenth company, Rolex, is in the second year of a major commercial agreement which sees its logos plastered across every Grand Prix venue. In some cases the relationships are longstanding and, apparently, rock solid. Tag Heuer has been with McLaren since 1985, Oris joined forces with Williams in 2003 and Certina has backed the Sauber team since 2004. Other partnerships are more recent: Casio signed up with Red Bull Racing just as the team was becoming a championship force in 2009; Hublot, which preceded Rolex as the official watch of Formula One, partnered with Ferrari at the end of 2011, an arrangement which goes beyond mere sport; Armin Strom and Marussia joined forces in 2011 and Lotus unveiled Richard Mille as its official timing partner in May 2013. Lotus previously had a deal with TW Steel, but the Dutch company switched to Sahara Force India in 2013. Mercedes, meanwhile, agreed a threeyear contract with IWC Schaffhausen in 2012. IWC has found a novel way to achieve a little more bang for its buck: an IWC watch is incorporated into the design of the gloves worn by Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton whilst driving.
