Chevrier: details will decide title
The fight for the world championship this year could be decided by the smallest of details, claims one of Renault's leading figures
Denis Chevrier, Renault's head of engine track operations, thinks that the predicted competitiveness at the front of the field this season will make life difficult for the teams.
And he thinks the difference between winning and losing in 2007 will be very small - meaning teams must examine every possible area to find improvements.
"I think everybody's expecting a very closely-fought championship with little difference between the teams," Chevrier told Renault's official website.
"In this context, the slightest little detail will have considerable importance and could play a crucial role in victory or defeat.
"It'll also be very important to reach a good understanding with the drivers to give them the best possible package.
"When the overall level of competition is as high as this, everybody's contribution matters and anything that can provide a performance gain must be taken into account. The whole team will have to give 100% to succeed in 2007."
