Renault Formula One driver, Nelsinho Piquet, has been talking about the talents of his teammate, Fernando Alonso. He said that he had learned a lot from the driver from Asturias, and had as a consequence become aware of his own limits in what had been a difficult year.

Piquet only managed one podium place last year, a second in the German Grand Prix, and admitted he had failed to meet his target of finishing the season in the first ten; he ended up 12th. Alonso had, he said, been really solid and very quick.
