Renault president and chief executive Carlos Ghosn has presented a calm front in the wake of the storm currently surrounding the manufacturer's Formula One team.

The marque is currently in turmoil following the departures of Flavio Briatore and Pat Symonds as team principal and executive director of engineering, respectively.

Renault face a World Motor Sport Council hearing in Paris on Monday following which sanctions will be imposed.
"All I have asked is we do not react in the heat of the moment, that we examine the facts and look at exactly what happened," Ghosn said. "There are investigations under way, and we are doing them in collaboration with all the F1 authorities because I absolutely don't want to rush into an interpretation one way or another."
