Definitely seems like an odd pairing, until you read that Renault bought a 25 percent stake in Lada's parent company, Avtovaz, for $1 billion in 2008.

The sad news on that page is that USF1 will not be making the grid in 2010, and possibly not even 2011 (or ever). I wonder if Peter Windsor will be crawling back to Speed TV to get his commentary job back?

Let's see. No one even flinches about the fact that Ferrari is owned by FIAT. And Porsche is now part of VW? :shock:
