Renault F1 now has an all-new driver line-up after it was confirmed that Pastor Maldonado is officially out and Kevin Magnussen will team up with Brit Jolyon Palmer.

It was announced yesterday that Maldonado would not be competing in the 2016 Formula 1 season after his sponsor PDVSA became involved in a dispute with Renault over payments, which resulted in it tearing up the agreement it had previously signed.
