Last year our partnership proved successful, promoting the team to CNBCs influential audience and helping to expand and add value to our portfolio of commercial partners.
The anticipation within the team is really building now for the start of the 2012 season this weekend in Melbourne. We enjoyed a very positive track debut with the MR01 at Silverstone last week and whilst we are unable to draw any hard and fast conclusions until we run for the first time on Friday, we are optimistic that we will be able to make a good step forward this year and really start to build towards our ambitious plans for the future. Were looking forward to the season and we are excited to have the global power of the CNBC brand behind us once again.
Charlotte Westgate, Vice President, Marketing & Communications, EMEA at CNBC: CNBCs partnership with the Marussia F1 Team is an innovative solution that provides marketing and commercial opportunities for both brands. The partnership enables us to put the CNBC brand in front of a massive global audience, which is complementary to our own influential and affluent viewer base around the world. We look forward to working with the Marussia F1 Team and wish them success in the 2012 season.
