    Rrnault have made public that they need to know by mid-October if Robert Kubica will be in a position to race in 2012.

    http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/94469

    I have always been a bit secptical abotu his chances of returning from teh injuries he suffered in the rally accident earlier in the year.

    Renualt obviously need to have a back-up plan, but at best they coudl only hope to retain their two current drivers on a 'wait and see' basis as no other top-line drivers will sign a contract to be on stand-by in case Kubica does not return.

    If Renualt need to make a decision and it is not for Kubica to return, what top-line drivers are out there who are available?

    Has been mentioned before that Sutil has not resigned for Force India. Does he have one eye still on a Renualt seat?

    I would love to see young Di Resta or Kobayashi in a Renault, they need to be in a high midfield team before making a jump to the front.

    I don't know who Robert "Jubica" is, so on a completely unrelated topic, I think mid-october is a fairly short deadline for Robert Kubica to be able to say he'll definetly be back. :tongue:

    lol

    If Kubica does not return, Renault will probably look at Senna or Grosjean.

    Nah, I'm not that stupid. Of course I've heard of Henry Honda. The question is, have you ever heard of Richard Flammond?
