Petrov possibly on his way out of Renualt?

Just read the James Allen article on Petrov criticising the Renault team.

He seems to think that Petrov's actions are not those of a man who has a seat at the team next year, despite being under contract.

We know that Grosjean will be racing for Renualt next year, but who is going to replace Petrov? Kubica still hasn't even been in a go kart.

They never should have got rid of Heidfeld really.

Sutil or Barrichello would be a decent choice. I haven't seen anything from Senna that suggests he is up to the job.

No reason why Sutil shouldn't be in the FI he's performing well enough. If Di Resta can't outscore him, Hulkenberg certainly isn't going to.

That would be awesome.

I liked the team when they were Renault proper, but the current owners are a joke.

Sutil will never be going there. Don't forget he bottled the owner in Shanghai, with shards of glass cutting the guy's neck.

Grosjean did really well in FP1 in Abu Dhabi, in fact I think he was the highest placed Renualt in that session.

Grosjean to out perform Petrov by 33% in 2012 ;-)
