Volkswagen denies 2015 F1 project reports
23 August, 2012
Aug.23 (GMM) Volkswagen has played down reports that it is making plans to enter Formula One starting in 2015 with Sauber.
The German weekly Sport Bild said that the Wolfsburg based carmaking giant was planning to enter F1 with Sauber, or even considering getting involved in chassis design at its state of the art Porsche Motorsport Centre in Weissach.
The report said that the FIA was aware of VW’s plans.
But the marque’s marketing and communications boss Stefan Moser said: “Nothing has changed since our last statement.
“We are continuing to focus on the WRC. Entering Formula One is not an issue for us right now,” he told Germany’s motorsport-magazin.com.
