 The team then moved up to compete in the European and French Formula Renault Championships for 2005 with Westley Barber and Pippa Mann.Westley ran out of funds halfway through the year after a promising start which included a 2nd-place finish at the season opener and Pippa was very much on a learning curve with a best finish of 14th.In 2006, Comtec moved up once more and competed in the World Series by Renault.
