After the Transfer-Domino the past few weeks (with Sebastian Vettel’s farewell to Ferrari, Carlos Sainz’ switching to Ferrari and Daniel ricciardo’s switch to McLaren), most of the speculation in the “Silly Season” of formula 1 on a possible formula 1 Comeback of two-time world champion Fernando Alonso.
The 38-Year-old is in demand for the three current top teams Mercedes, Ferrari and Red Bull nor McLaren, but would like to, so you hear it from his environment, necessarily. As the most realistic variant of the Renault Team, for which he was the 2005 and 2006 world champion, and he has to leave at the end of 2009, after the authorities Busted the “crash-gate”scandal, for the second Time.
At Renault, man open currently, all of the options: “It could be a lot of riders. There are some great riders for next year are on the market,” says team boss Cyril Abiteboul in an Interview with ‘Radio Monte Carlo’. And he confirmed for the first time explicitly, that Alonso was “an Option” for the Cockpit in addition to Esteban Ocon. But: “There are other options.”
it is reported that Didier Coton, the Manager of Valtteri Bottas, has recently at Renault knock on the door. And with Nico Hulkenberg a further well-established driver is available for 2021 still no Job. But Abiteboul shall not engage in such speculation: “The Only thing I can say is: We will take enough time to think about it.”
Abiteboul taunts against Ferrari and McLaren
“Because it is an extremely important decision,” he explains. “We don’t want to fall into the same action, such as Ferrari and McLaren. To decide on a new driver, although the new season has not even started yet, we find, to be honest, weird. So we are not getting there first, Knowing that opportunities will arise.”
Renault has become known only on Friday, after months of nail-biter to remain in formula 1. The driver pairing, grants Abiteboul, be a Central point of the building plan: “It is an important decision, because this driver is likely to remain some years with us. At least until 2022, when the rules come out, have just been confirmed by the FIA.”
From the German point of view would be a return of Hulkenberg to the Team has not extended his contract to the end of 2019, exciting. But formula 1 expert Ralf Schumacher waves his hand in a ‘Warm-Up’, the formula-1-Show of the Pay-TV channel ‘Sky’,: “I can’t imagine more. I think in the case of Renault, it was very sure, that you want to change something.”
Heidfeld believes in small Chance for Hulkenberg
“Because I would like to see more of that with the rumours about Fernando what can happen to Alonso. I think this is not at all impossible. He has kept up all the time fit and would certainly go straight back into the car, if he has a good chance. Plus: He always had a very good contact to Renault.”
Nick Heidfeld reflected Schumacher speaks to the extent that he is quite realistic “variant holds Hulkenberg Renault for,” as he says in ‘Sky’,. But: “I think if you have at Renault, the choice that you would rather go to Alonso, a multi-time world champion, with Renault. I think that he will have the nose in the front.”
Not Heidfeld can understand that Renault has made an effort, apparently, to little, to keep Ricciardo for 2021 and beyond: “I would not say that you have set with Ricciardo backing the wrong horse,” he explains. “It has not really kept warm and, unfortunately, go away. He has brought the top of his game.”
