The new look team has retained Vitaly Petrov while Nick Heidfeld has replaced an injured Robert Kubica. Coping without Kubica, one of the most talented drivers on the circuit, will be difficult. (Getty Images)
Renault had announced their intention of fighting for wins this season, but with Kubica no longer in the picture, their ambitions have definitely suffered a big blow. (Getty Images)
Petrov was quite inconsistent last season and will have to do a lot better this time around. In the absence of Kubica he'll only be under more pressure to get results for the team. (Getty Images)
Eric Boullier stepped into the big shoes of Flavio Briatore as Renault's team principal last season and the onus is now on him to get the team back among the big guns. (Getty Images)
Amongst the current drivers, Heidfeld has had the most GP starts without standing at the top spot on the podium. In fact, if he were to eventually win a race he would break Mark Webber's record for most starts before a maiden victory. (Getty Images)
33 Years and only 2 titles is an under-achievement for a team of the stature of Renault. They again look unlikely to challenge for the championship but are hoping to be more competitive. (Getty Images)
