Renault have yet to confirm that they have contracted Nico Hulkenberg in a three year deal to spearhead their effort starting in 2018, but have also not denied the possibility.
We reported last week that Hulkenberg to Renault is a done deal, and a number of other outlets have since reported the same news.
Renault F1 team chief Frederic Vasseur confirmed to French media that Hulkenberg “is one of the possibilities, but at the moment we have not decided.”
But added mischievously , “If we were to put all of the drivers in the team who have been linked with us, we would call ourselves a football team rather than a formula one team.”
“Hulkenberg is a possibility, as are two or three other drivers,” confirmed Vasseur.
GMM quote Force India deputy team principal Bob Fernley saying, “We would not stop Nico if he would like to go somewhere else.”
