Renault team principal Frederic Vasseur has said that the team is happy with the performance of drivers Kevin Magnussen and Jolyon Palmer, despite their lowly points haul so far this season.
Both drivers' contracts are up at the end of the season and both have been linked with departures with the team, but Vasseur insists that the team is happy with both drivers.
"We are at that time of year when we are asked these questions, but the questions and the speculation often happen before any decision is made," he said about the speculation surrounding the Renault drivers. "What I can say is we have two good drivers, who are improving weekend after weekend."
"Let's not forget that Jolyon is a rookie and that Kevin only had one year driving full-time at McLaren then a year not racing. They are both doing a strong, solid job and work very well within the team," he continued. "I have a strong relationship with them both and they know what is expected of them. Within the team we are very happy together. We will make our decisions for 2017 in our own time."
