Kubica considers Renault future

• Polish driver wants to know new owner's intentions• Felipe Massa has neck pain in two-day test sessionRobert Kubica is considering his future at Renault after the manufacturer's decision to sell a significant stake in its Formula One team, the Polish driver's manager said today. Daniele Morelli told the BBC it was "not automatic" Kubica would stay although he hinted he was likely to, and sought more information about the team's plans. "We would like to know about Genii Capital and who is doing what in the team, a partner can be a sleeping partner or a controlling partner," said Morelli.Earlier, Renault said it planned to sell a significant stake to Genii, a Luxembourg-based specialist in brand management and motor sports, but would run the team jointly with its new partners. "The cards have changed in respect of when we signed and it's important Renault give us full information," said Morelli.Kubica raced for BMW-Sauber this year and signed with Renault after BMW withdrew. "We are not against the new position in principle but it is important to know who will run the team and what kind of strategies they will use," said the manager. "We need time, at least a few days, to evaluate the new situation so I am not in a position to say we will leave or stay."Kubica's contract is likely to contain an escape clause covering a change of team ownership, given that Renault's future was uncertain when he signed up. He is highly rated in the sport and is likely to be of interest to Mercedes, formerly champions Brawn, should the retired seven-times champion Michael Schumacher decide against a comeback at the age of 41.Mercedes have yet to name a replacement for the world champion, Jenson Button, who has joined McLaren, but reports have said they are close to a deal with Schumacher.There are few, if any, other vacancies that would interest the Pole. Only Sauber, Toro Rosso and the new US F1 and Campos Meta teams have yet to complete their line-ups and none would be able to match Kubica's Renault salary.Felipe Massa complained of a sore neck today after completing two days of tests in a 2007 Ferrari. The Brazilian has been out since suffering life-threatening head injuries in an accident at July's Hungarian grand prix. "I had a bit of neck pain, above all in the quick corners. But the rest went fine and there was no difference compared to before the accident," Massa said.RenaultFormula OneMotor sportguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2009 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds
