In a statement, Vice President Corporate Communications of Pertamina, Wianda Pusponegoro, said the sport betting company has doing the maximum efforts to support Rio Haryanto and participate in Formula 1 in 2017.

"We've done a study, because Rio Haryanto is a very talented young rider and the best we've ever had," said Wianda.

"Part of the process performed internally which should in line with the principles of GCG Pertamina, but it turns out we need more time to make sure everything runs as it should and we did not get it. It came the conclusion, perhaps Pertamina better yet would participate again in Formula 1 of next year, " she said again.

There are a number of things that are beyond our control, such as the deadline of the team for approval of the online sport betting contract documents and budget needs. And, we, Pertamina, are not necessarily able to meet desire a potential partner for the team not in accordance with the provisions of Pertamina, "he said.

"We're committed to supporting Rio Haryanto, but it seems already can not meet the deadline time of confirmation of the online sport betting team so this year there has been no continuation of Pertamina participation for F1," concludes Wianda.
