According to colleagues from Motorsport-Total.com, are lawyers Daniel Ricciard filed a harsh defense against the eleven-million-pound claim of his former adviser. As previously reported, Glenn Beavis requires a 20 percent share of Ricciard’s salary in the team Renault and further content of the Australian’s profitable contract.
The Ricciards lawyers, however, dispute that there was a breach of the agreement. Their defense, which was filed on High court of justice in London, is fighting all elements of the alleged agreed commission. The defense letter states that it is Beavis he requested his request for a 20% participation only after he had Ricciardo last December announced that it was terminating their cooperation. The defense letter also states that the sum of more than £ 10 million is in stark contrast to the emails - both before and after the last mid-2015 contract.

The 16-page defense document contradicts the allegations in 41 footnotes Beavisthat his payments were curtailed, and three notes mention bold and embarrassing personal details. Among other things, these are Beavis' claims that it is for Ricciardo concluded many deals, which he never carried out. Beavis the lawsuit relates to a contract that was concluded in mid-2015, and on the basis of this, the former consultant believes that he is entitled to a monthly basic salary of $ 20.000 plus a 20 percent participation in Ricciard's benefits.

The Australian defense objects to the demands Beavis on a number of points and relates to communication between the two parties from January to July 2015, that is, at the time this agreement was being discussed. It states that no written exchange discussed a 20% participation rate, nor is it stated anywhere that this Beavis suggested. Much more, these “deals” mean that Beavis ’claims are limited to commercial sponsorship contracts only and not to racing and motorsport contracts.
