Renault, Formula One's perenial optimists, are confident of scoring some points at this weekend's Canadian Grand Prix in Montreal.
With six races of the season gone, Renault have only managed nine constructors points... all of which came from double world champion Fernando Alonso. His teammate, Nelson Piquet Junior has failed in all the races so far and already rumours are doing the rounds that he could be replaced if he doesn't start scoring some points.
Engineering Director at Renault, Pat Symonds, believes Piquet will start coming good quite soon, "His confidence is suffering a little bit, but we hope! to see him bounce back soon - he's definitely got the ability and we've already seen he's got the speed."
Symonds also believes the team will out-develop their rivals and have a strong second half of the season.
