Prost build for the future
PROST GRAND PRIX confirmed their plans to find and develop drivers for the future when they announced allegiances with a British Formula Three and Formula Renault teams.
From this season, Prost will provide technical support for the England-based RC Motorsport team in the British Formula Three Championship. The team will be spearheaded by Dane Nicolas Kiesa and Briton Ryan Dalziel.
At the same time Prost will also support the Cram Competition team, based in Italy, in the Italian and European Formula Renault Championship. Their drivers line-up will include Brazilian Paulo Bueno and Italians Fausto Ippoliti, Alessandro Vitacolonna and Ronnie Quintarelli.
Prost, who will also have a junior team in the F3000 Championship, will provide marketing support to all the teams and will help young drivers develop through motor racing to perhaps one day compete in Formula One.
