SINGAPORE: Disgraced Formula One giant Renault was forced to strip its cars of key sponsor logos Friday after Dutch banking group ING and Spanish insurance company Mutua Madrilena severed ties. Anthony Davis Jersey . ING dropped a bombshell by announcing that its three-year deal would be terminated with immediate effect after the French car manufacturer was handed a two-year suspended ban for its part on the Singapore race-fix scandal. It followed former driver Nelson Piquet Juniors claims that he had been ordered to deliberately crash at the 2008 race to allow teammate Fernando Alonso to win. Former team principal Flavio Briatore, who quit in the aftermath of the scandal, was handed a lifetime ban and chief engineer Pat Symonds was suspended for five years when the FIAs World Motor Sport Council met in Paris on Monday. ING announced that in light of the verdict of the World Motor Sport Council of 21 September 2009 concerning the events that occurred at the 2008 Singapore Grand Prix, ING will terminate the contract with Renault Formula 1 with immediate effect, said an ING statement. ING is deeply disappointed at this turn of events, especially in the context of an otherwise successful sponsorship. The company had planned to leave Renault at the end of the season but will now depart four races early. Fellow sponsor Mutua Madrilena also announced it was ending its agreement with Renault, blaming the teams substantial breach of the sports regulations. Mutua Madrilena believes the conduct of the relevant people in the team was of extraordinary seriousness and not only compromised the integrity of the sport but also put the physical safety of spectators, drivers and circuit personnel at risk, it said in a statement. This could affect the image, reputation and good name of the teams sponsors. However, the company will continue its association with Alonso who was cleared of any wrongdoing. Renault wasted no time in removing the ING and Mutua logos from its cars, as well as the team garage and motorhome, ahead of Fridays first practice session of the Singapore Grand Prix. The team have attempted to start drawing a line under the cheating affair by announcing they would withdraw their threat of legal action against Piquet and the drivers father Nelson Piquet senior, a former world champion. Briatore had launched legal proceedings against the pair, accusing them of blackmail. We are keen to put this whole affair behind us, Renaults lawyer Ali Malek told the World Motor Sport Council, in documents that have since been made public. Criminal proceedings were brought in France but these have been withdrawn. In Singapore, the team have refused further comment although Alonso insisted the situation in the garage was back to normal. I am happy that everything is clear now, and I am happy also that it is clear I was not involved in the incident and had nothing in that matter, he told reporters. Delanie Walker Jersey .
