Renault F1 Team officially kicked off its 2020 campaign by introducing driver duo Daniel Ricciardo and Esteban Ocon for the first time in team colours.

They also showed glimpses of the 2020 challenger, the Renault R.S.20 in its pre-season testing livery, which will be fully revealed, along with its power unit the E-Tech 20, at winter testing in Barcelona.

Renault has invested healthily in personnel and state of the art technology across its chassis base in Enstone, United Kingdom, and engine headquarters in Viry-Châtillon, France, to aid its plan of, once again, claiming Formula 1 world championship titles.

Daniel Ricciardo enters his second season in black and yellow and revealed his motivation to succeed on track this year. Esteban Ocon marks his return to the team, which gifted him his early taste in Formula 1 as a teenager.

Team Principal Cyril Abiteboul highlighted the team’s ambitions for the season. “Taking back fourth position in the Constructors’ Championship remains the objective over a season that will be more hotly-contested than ever.

“For the coming season, we must respect the three priorities identified during the off-season: reliability from the get-go; ensure a high level of development very early in the season and have a good conversion rate on track. However, we also need to regain confidence and reinforce team spirit to get the best from everyone, and to maximise our chances each race weekend during this unprecedented long and challenging season.”
