Renault: Alonso soon replaced

Fernando Alonso in Ferrari, Robert Kubica should arrive at Renault. The Pole, contacted this summer, should therefore be the leader of the Franco-British team for the next season, alongside Romain Grosjean. With three Grands Prix remaining at the end of the season, the transfer market is finally unlocking and the game of musical chairs should now punctuate the news of the Formula 1.

By announcing its desire to communicate next week the name of Fernando Alonso's replacement, Renault also returned to the collaboration between the team and the Spanish driver: “The particularly close relationship between Renault and Fernando has been one of the most fruitful of the "Formula One's history culminated with back-to-back Drivers' and Constructors' World Championship victories in 2005 and 2006."

Without immediately revealing the name of the driver replacing Alonso, Renault has prepared the ground by planning an announcement following the Japanese Grand Prix: “Renault F1 Team will make an announcement concerning the driver who will replace Fernando Alonso within the team, this week next. » This announcement should herald a large-scale movement in the paddock, with the probable transfers of Nico Rosberg, Heikki Kovalainen, Rubens Barrichello? By announcing Fernando Alonso on Wednesday, Ferrari gave the start of this great upheaval.
