Renault sign Anthoine Hubert to their academy

Anthoine Hubert has become part of the Renault driver academy along with six other drivers. 

GP3 champion Anthoine Hubert will become part of Renault's driver academy along with five other young drivers. Chinese Guanyu Zhou will also join Renault in the same role alongside Brazilian teenager Caio Collet. These three will join Max Fewtrell, Christian Lundgaard and Victor Martins to make the academy's team of six drivers. 

“We’re extremely pleased to have such a talented pool of drivers on the Renault Sport Academy," said Cyril Abiteboul, Renault Sport Racing Managing Director, to the official Formula 1 website.

“All six drivers have shown themselves to be exciting talents in the junior categories and we look forward to working with them in 2019.

“The Formula 1 team will draw benefits from having a group of outstanding drivers – both in the short-term and long-term – and the Academy will continue to help in that way for years to come.

“We’re looking forward to continuing with Max, Christian, Anthoine and Victor and we’re really pleased to have Guanyu and Caio beginning their journey with the team. We’ll be supporting all six drivers to help them enjoy a successful season.”
