Michelin has decided to respond positively to Sauber Petronas Team's request to use Michelin tyres for the 2005 FIA Formula One World Championship.
Commenting on the decision, Pierre Dupasquier, Head of Michelin Group's Competition operations said: "As we demonstrated in 2004, our technology makes a significant contribution to the performance of F1 cars. I look forward to enabling Sauber Petronas to benefit from this technology, just as BAR-Honda did in 2004 when, coupled with the formidable progress achieved in other areas, the team rose to second place in the Manufacturers' World Championship."
