I presume you are flying Aeroflot? In that case you will remain in terminal F, so you won't need a transit visa. Please check your tickets for the operating airline. If your connecting flight is with Air France (Terminal E), you won't need a visa either, as E and F are connected. Other airlines could arrive at or fly from different terminals, for which a transit visa might be required.
