Seeking a replacement for Fernando AlonsoRenault will not fork out millions to replace departing world champion driver Fernando Alonso.
Team president Patrick Faure says that when the Spaniard leaves at the end of the year, Renault will again unfurl its `special talent` to find another superstar.
Indeed, waiting in the wings - with an official test berth in 2006 - is one of the highest rated young guns, Finn Heikki Kovalainen. He is following a similar course to that trod in 2002 by 24-year-old Alonso.
Faure admitted: "And we also have some ideas for the future. We prefer to create a star, like we created Alonso, than to buy one."
