The report said Renault was considering whether to stay in full time, become an engine supplier or pull out altogether.


UPDATE: Renault CEO Carlos Ghosn told reporters today that Renault will make a decision on its participation in Formula One by the end of the year.

It's gossip! The Renault will race next season it's for sure. They would never sign Kubica for the next season if they knew they had to pull out of F1.
