Renault confirms Monteiro
It is no big surprise that Portugal's Tiago Monteiro has been named as a member of the Renault F1 Driver Development Program.
It is expected that at some point or other Super Nova Racing's number one driver Sebastien Bourdais will also be named as a Renault driver although he is still believed to be in negotiation with the driver management company involved. Renault seems to be keen on the idea but Bourdais wants to retain some of his independence and not sign a contract which will tie him down in the years ahead. There are now so many drivers involved with Renault that there is a dangerous that there will be too many drivers involved.
