Collyer Bristow, the legal team which has represented Max Mosley and Nelson Piquet Jr and Snr, has appointed Prova PR to manage its media and sports profile.

Warwick-based Prova will work with Collyer Bristow "to provide expert comment" on issues such as intellectual propety, branding, privacy, wealth management and employment - specifically relating to motorsport and wider sports sectors.

Prova's Richard Postins said: “This is a really exciting time for both motorsport and media law. We’re looking forward to getting stuck into the big issues from the outset.”
