It is thought that Alonso was referring to the future of the Renault team. There has been a lot of media speculation that this would be the teams last year in Formula One. However, Renault president Carlos Ghosn, promised that the French manufacturer will remain in the sport providing the team remains competitive and that there is a decent (financial) return on the money invested.

This seems to contrast with statements from Alonso’s personal and Team
manager, Flavio Briatore.  Briatore told Gazzetta dello Sport this week that “I believe it is just for a driver to want to change teams, to get new
stimulation.”  Alonso also said “We have helped each other. But I don’t think a driver can race his whole career for the same team. I am still very young and think I needed a new challenge from 2007. So I made the choice that I think is best, and my career will start a new chapter next season.”
