Renault to consider its F1 future as part of company-wide review

MEXICO CITY -- Renault's future involvement in Formula One could be under threat as the French car maker embarks on a company-wide strategic review.

Falling revenues and uncertainty following the arrest of former CEO Carlos Ghosn have seen Renault's new leadership commit to a "deep review" of all aspects of the company going forward.

In a teleconference with investors on Friday, Renault's interim CEO, Clotilde Delbos, was asked if the brand's participation in Formula One and its small sports car operation, Alpine, would be part of the review.

"I'm not specifically targeting those two activities. But clearly the review of the 'Drive the Future' plan means we put [it] on the table," she said.
