Alonso has registered all nine of the French outfit's points to-date this year, with the Spaniard's experience paying dividends as he survived the chaos of Melbourne to finish fourth in the season curtain-raiser, and sensationally qualified on the front row of the grid on home soil in Barcelona following significant improvements to the Enstone-based concern's hitherto unloved R28.

Seemingly chastened by the lessons of 2007, however, Briatore insisted it was imperative Renault allow Piquet all the help and time he needs to learn the ropes in what is likely the highest-pressure environment that he has encountered in his career to-date.

“Nelsinho definitely has talent,” the Italian stressed in an interview with Reuters before the Turkish race. “Nelsinho is a part of the team and we need to support him. I don't have any doubts about Nelsinho.”
