For more than 115 years Renault has embraced the challenge of motorsport in multiple guises. It recognised the value of competitive activities for technical and commercial gain: in December 1898 Louis Renault drove the Type A Voiturette up the steepest street in Paris, the rue Lepic. The first orders for the ground-breaking car with direct drive flooded in. In 1902 the nimble, lightweight Type K, fitted with Renault’s first 4-cylinder engine, took victory in the Paris-Vienna rally. Again, many more cars were sold. Going through the years, in 1977 Renault introduced the first-ever turbocharged car to F1.

  • BMW Sauber F1 Team Steps out in Valencia
    B MW Sauber F1Team Brazilian Grand Prix – Qualifying, Saturday – 17.10.09 Weather: rain in practice and qualifying, 17°C Air, 18°C Track Interlagos (BR). After a wet qualifying session lasting two hours and 42 minutes the Brazilian crowd cheered local hero Rubens Barrichello for his pole position. The BMW Sauber F1 Team was left rather unhappy. Both drivers ended up below expectations in qualifying. While Robert Kubica made it into Q3 and finished eighth, Nick Heidfeld was already out in Q1, mainly because the ride height proved to be too low for the amount of water on the track. Robert Kubica: BMW Sauber F1.09-08 / BMW P86/9 Qualifying 8th, 1:20.631 min in Q3 (3rd Free Practice: 19th, 1:29.895 min) “The conditions in this qualifying were really difficult. At one point there was so much water on the track that the car was almost undriveable. Fortunately, after the break, the conditions were a little better. We are running relatively low downforce, which was obviously delicate in these conditions. To my surprise, the car was quite competitive when it was very wet, and it was somewhat more difficult to drive with less water. I had too much understeer. The car is set up for a dry track, so we have to see what the weather will be like tomorrow.” Nick Heidfeld: BMW Sauber F1.09-07 / BMW P86/9 Qualifying 19th, 1:25.515 min in Q1 (3rd Free Practice: 9th, 1:24.867min) “Of course it is very annoying to be out in Q1, but I simply had no chance.

  • Renault Sport Racing Press Pack 2020
    FOREWORD This year, Renault will continue its very proud and long-standing history in Formula 1 into a new decade, our sixth consecutive in the sport. We are in the midst of an interesting period, as we continue to engage within established global markets, while simultaneously developing our brand and its awareness in bigger areas like China and India within the widespread transformation of the automotive industry. Our commitment to Formula 1 has led to inventive marketing initiatives to increase awareness of, and commitment to, our brand. I look forward in particular to supporting new activations from Groupe Renault and its markets around E-Tech technology, which has been inspired by long-standing Formula 1 innovation. Our presence in the sport is also a unique opportunity for the team’s partners and sponsors to build relationships with one of the most important car manufacturers in the world, and for Renault to benefit from their know-how in their respective fields. 2020 is also an important transition year for the team. We aim to recapture the positive momentum from our first three years since returning to Formula 1 while preparing for next season, which will represent a new cycle for all teams. Having completed our initial construction phase, we are more determined than ever to be ready to attack and take advantage of the 2021 technical changes. 2020 is also the last year under the current agreements that govern Formula 1’s commercial rights. The new agreements and rules, already in advanced negotiation, should represent a new opportunity for Renault Sport Racing and for Renault to take part in a more balanced, competitive sport.

The results of each race are evaluated using a points system to determine two annual World Championships, one for the drivers and one for the constructors.
