When asked about Renault's 2007 driver line-up, Flavio Briatore said:
In our car, today, there are three or four drivers who could win races. Michael Schumacher, Alonso, Raikkonen and Fisichella, who has shown he can win races with us.
For the future, there are drivers like Hamilton, or Kovalainen who could possibly win championships. Our job is to make sure we have the car to attract those drivers, and to do that, we need to be quicker than the opposition. That is the priority and at the moment, we are delivering.
Flavio rates not only Kovalainen but Hamilton too!

Sounds like Flavio will have Fisichella and Kovalainen next year which surprises me given Fisichella's poor form. Unless of course he is trying to keep Fisichella motivated before giving him the sack!

Interesting he doesn't mention Webber or Montoya as drivers who could win races!!
I'm back and yes supporting Alonso "The Cute" in the Ferrari!

Its a typical Flavio respnonse. He doesnt answer the question at all. Despite my earlier predictions, I cant see Fisi getting a drive at Renault next year.

There are a lot of people he didnt mention, and only two he had to mention. At least we can see where he is looking.
Ok, Lewis may win the WDC in 07, but Sato will beat him in 08.
