MONZA, Italy (Reuters) - Renault should have an engine competitive enough to break the Formula One dominance of Mercedes and Ferrari next season, former world champion Jackie Stewart said.

Mercedes, whose drivers have won the last three championships, and Ferrari appear to be in a two horse race for the constructors' title this year. Red Bull are a distant third in the standings, while Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel is seven points ahead of Mercedes rival Lewis Hamilton on top of the drivers' standings.
