The double Spanish Formula 1 world champion Fernando Alonso will return to the top category of motorsport with Renault "from the 2021 season", after two years of absence, confirmed the team in a press release on Wednesday.

The duration of Alonso's contract, which will be 39 years old on July 29, is not specified. It is only indicated that he "joined Renault DP World F1 Team for the next seasons". It was with the French manufacturer that the Spaniard won his two world titles in 2005 and 2006.
