Formula 1’s Latest Rumours and Talk: Fernando Alonso, Renault and More

As McLaren-Honda went from bad to worse during the 2015 Formula One season, Fernando Alonso knew he had to be cruel to be kind.

The two-time world champion does not suffer fools gladly and made sure his team knew it at various points of the year, making a number of outbursts over team radio.

And the Spaniard has revealed the motive behind his scathing comments, suggesting he has succeeded in extracting more out of those around him as McLaren and Honda work to return to the top.

At this stage a decade ago, Alonso was celebrating his first of two successive title triumphs with Renault after ending Michael Schumacher's five-year spell of dominance.

But despite completing its takeover of Lotus, Renault has warned that it will take at least three years for the French manufacturer to compete for grand prix victories and world championships once more.

Renault CEO Carlos Ghosn will reveal more details about Renault's return in due course, but one man who definitely won't play a role at the new-look team is Romain Grosjean, who has jumped ship to Haas for 2016.

Grosjean's move was arguably the most fascinating of this year's driver market and has drawn comparisons to Timo Glock's switch to Manor in 2010.

The German, however, believes Grosjean will avoid the same fate as him, but he predicts the Frenchman will have difficulties in adjusting to a smaller team after his long, successful tenure at Lotus.

Elsewhere, the battle between Mercedes and Ferrari has spread to F1's fuel suppliers, with Petronas eager to beat Shell and help Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg to secure a third consecutive constructors' championship in 2016.

Closing this week'a roundup is Pierre Gasly, the Red Bull-backed youngster, who has explained why Max Verstappen's remarkable rookie season has offered hope to junior drivers.
