Finance - Sponsors

Another important subject was covered during today's press conference. Domingo Pérez-Alonso, General Manager in charge of Finance as well as Marketing and Communications, stated that "the Desafío Español 2007 project has been funded. We have covered 75% of the budget and we are currently in discussions with other sponsors." On that matter he added he was expecting further tax measures that would improve the tax regime of team sponsors, obviously making sponsorship attractive to a wider spectrum of companies.
