Nelson Piquet out, Romain Grosjean in?

Door Thomas Verbeek16 juli 2009 · 05:45 uur1 min lezen

Volgens de Braziliaans televisiezender SportTV heeft F1-coureur Nelson Piquet afgelopen weekeinde zijn laatste Grand Prix voor Renault gereden. Piquet zou over een ‘prestatiecontract’ beschikken en daar niet aan hebben voldaan.

De Braziliaanse bron claimt dat de 23-jarige nog vóór de Grand Prix van Hongarije zal worden vervangen door Romain Grosjean, de testrijder van Renault. Lucas di Grassi zou op zijn beurt te testrol van Grosjean overnemen. Renault-teambaas Flavio Briatiore wil het nieuws nog niet bevestigen en liet weten dat het debuut van Grosjean geen zekerheid is.
