All eyes on VW

NEWS STORY
03/12/2007

Having 'lost' Sebastian Vettel and Timo Glock, the latest 'defection' from BMW could have a far more significant effect on Formula One.

Former F1 and SportsCar star, Hans-Joachim Stuck, has been appointed 'Motorsport Representative' for Volkswagen, the fourth biggest automobile manufacturer in the world.

Having been associated with BMW for as long as anyone can remember, Stuck's appointment at VW, part of the Volkswagen Group, which also owns Audi, Bentley, Lamborghini and Bugatti, is sure to rekindle talk of the German manufacturer entering F1.

Stuck, who attended the BMW Motorsport Party in Munich at the weekend, begins his new job on January 1.

Only last week, Bernie Ecclestone admitted that while he was not happy with the return of customer cars, he would be delighted to see more manufacturers entering the sport, and they don't come much bigger than VW.

Definitely one to watch.
