Are we satisfied? No, we are not satisfied, obviously. |
As an individual, not as the boss of a company, I am very interested in motor racing, |
As long as it is a good investment for Renault, we'll stay. |
As long as we perform at the top level there will not be so much question about our future in F1. There are questions about the format of the sport from 2008, but if we consider that the resolutions to these questions are good, and still receive a good return on our investment, then we should be there. |
At Nissan we made two decisions, |
At the end of September, we declared the revival of Nissan complete, ... Nissan continues to move at the right pace in the right direction. |
At the moment it is an investment because it is getting good results. The important thing is to see how we make the most of those results and transform it into commercial success. At the moment Formula One is an investment that is paying off for Renault. What we can say is that for the next few years it is an investment. |
At the same time Nissan did the Dakar Rally for a couple of years but the results were not up to the expectations that I wanted from the team. We pulled out. |
But this will take a very long time. |
China will be the answer to Japan's problems. |
Demand is down heavily, ... Now that consumers are being convinced little by little that high oil prices are here to stay, they will be shifting their attitude on the market. |
Design is important, it's an important dimension in the car. It's not the only one, |
Even though hybrids are a solution, they're not the solution. |
I am very pleased to announce that the revival process of Nissan is completed. |
I have never been too bullish on the US market and have been looking for signs of the end, and if this trend continues into November I am afraid this may be the beginning of it. |
