Will ABITEBOUL join PEUGEOT in the sports car project?

Cyril Abiteboul has been the head of Renault's Formula 1 team in recent years, but with the change of team name to Alpine, the Frenchman withdrew or was fired.

Disappointment in form team results and lagging behind the plan of the French producer in Formulas 1, set it to rocking table, which is why the new team decided on a new leadership.

Consequently Abiteboul is no longer involved in Formula 1, but he won’t just leave motorsport. Because Abiteboul has already been associated with Peugeot, and this news now resonates on the Japanese portal as well As-web. The said website states that it should Abiteboul talked to the French carmaker about the possibilities associated with his participation in the project sports cars. In this case, Abiteboul would be from Renault moved to the biggest competitor Peugeot, although the latter 's sporting ambitions are somewhat vague.

It seems so Peugeot entry into Formula 1 is not yet inevitable, as there have been no announcements or proposals recently. If it will Abiteboul really entered into a partnership with Peugeot, will do so on behalf of the new group Stellantis. This is a new company created by the merger Fiat Chrysler Automobiles in Peugeot group.
