PAUL HEMBERY'S STATEMENT

HEMBERY: WE WOULD LIKE TO THANK THE TEAMS, DRIVERS, FIA AND FOM FOR THE SUPPORT THAT WE ARE RECEIVING Following today’s earlier press release that explains the tyre failures at Silverstone, Paul Hembery comments further: “Contrary to the impression that some people have formed, I would like to underline the collaboration and support that we are receiving from the teams, drivers, FIA and FOM. In no way are we intending to create arguments or attack anybody. We have taken our responsibilities upon ourselves as our press release indicates. But not having full control over all the elements that impact on the use of the tyres, we need everybody’s contribution. With regard to this, we are receiving the full support of all the parties involved, for which we are very grateful.”
