RENAULT has told Russian F1 rookie Vitaly Petrov that he must start scoring regular points to secure his future with the team.
Petrov has scored in only one of his 10 races so far, when he finished seventh in China in April for six points. Polish teammate Robert Kubica's tally stands at 83.
"His future is actually in his hands," principal Eric Boullier said in a Renault team podcast on its website. "We have not been disappointed by him, he clearly is the best rookie in the paddock," added the Frenchman. "He's clearly today lacking some consistency to get the points he deserves and we definitely need to have both cars scoring points, so that's obviously creating some rumors about him and his race seat," added Boullier.
Renault has confirmed Kubica as its driver until the end of 2012 but his partner has not been confirmed with numerous names being mentioned, including Kimi Raikkonen.
