Quem quer patrocinar Alvaro Parente?

Por estes dias, está na moda, pelo menos pelas minhas bandas, lançarem-se petições por muita coisa. Há umas semanas atrás, eu falei-vos de uma petição visando evitar a venda do Autódromo do Estoril, para privados, pois temia-se que o promotor privado que o comprasse pudesse demolir o circuito para fins imobiliários, mais ou menos como irão fazer ao Autódromo de Jacarépaguá.

Hoje falo de outra petição, no sentido de... arranjar patrocinios para Alvaro Parente. Escrito em inglês, a ideia é de sensiblizar as empresas multinacionais no sentido de patrocinarem o talento português, Campeão inglês de Formula 3 em 2005 e o actual Campeão da World Series by Renault.

O endereço é este: http://www.petitiononline.com/alvarof1/petition.html Jà assinei, tornando-me no peticionário numero 250 (rico número)

Transcrevo o texto, na integra (e em inglês)

To: Companies, businessman and industries seeking to expand their business

This Petition is intended to promote Álvaro Parente, one of the most talented Portuguese drivers ever. This young pilot grabbed the steering wheel quite early, roughly 4 years old, when he got a little Kart for Christmas. His uncle put him in a wet tennis court just to see him controlling the car in the wet. With 8 years old, he started his brilliant Karting career, in which he came across with Lewis Hamilton, Robert Kubica or Nico Rosberg, who he beat (1998, Junior Karting European Champion).

Álvaro Parente's racing CV:

World Series by Renault champion 2007.

British Formula 3 champion 2005.

Karting European champion ICA Junior 1998.

Portuguese champion in the Junior class 1998.

Third in Portuguese Championship Cadet 1997.

Second in Portuguese Championship Cadet 1995.

Portuguese champion in the Cadet class 1994.

The worst rival Parente has had in his career is actually bad management (until a few months ago, when Polaris finally signed with Álvaro) and the lack of sponsors backing him. Parente will be driving in GP2 series in 2008, which is considered to be the final step before F1.

In 2009, he should be easily in a Formula 1 Team. Why sponsor Álvaro Parente? Formula One Racing has the largest television viewing audience in the world with just the Formula One championship bringing in 40 billion viewers annually.

Sponsor Parente, think ahead.

All signers of this petition state they know Parente is one of today's most promising pilots.

Sincerely,
The Undersigned
