Renault not ruling out driver change for 2011

Enstone based F1 team Renault is not ruling out a driver change for 2011.

The likelihood that Vitaly Petrov, a Russian rookie and pay-driver, will retain his seat alongside Robert Kubica next year has improved with some recent good performances.

But the fact remains that Renault is the best team with a potential vacancy for 2011.

“It is true that many drivers want to come to us,” team boss Eric Boullier is quoted by France’s Auto Hebdo.

“But we do want to give Vitaly the support he needs to fulfil his potential.

“We are going to wait as long as possible,” added Boullier.
