Dennis targets both titles

McLaren Formula 1 team boss Ron Dennis is ready for another close fight in the upcoming Formula 1 season. The Briton saw his driver Lewis Hamilton claim the drivers' championship title in 2008 but the team missed out on the constructors' championship. In 2009 though Dennis hopes to win both titles with the MP4-24.

"Despite our victory in the 2008 drivers' world championship we have taken nothing for granted in our preparations for the season ahead," said Ron Dennis. "Indeed, if anything, our efforts to fully understand this period of huge regulatory change have been more thorough and concerted than ever before. And while the scale of the technical changes makes it difficult to accurately assess the true competitive outlook of the year ahead, as a team we can feel proud of our efforts and look forward to another close season of Formula 1 motor racing.

"As ever, we exist to win and our target remains the successful acquisition of both this year's drivers' and constructors' world titles."
