"It doesn't mean that it is the same car - it would not look very attractive. But what we have decided to do is focus on performance areas and by doing that, you also work towards 2021.
"If you can be focused on 2020 then you have some extra capacity available for 2021. That is the logic behind what we have done - whether it works or not let's see in Melbourne on the Saturday."
For me he simply means that they kept 2019 car and fix on it the flaws it had.JordanMugen wrote: ↑19 Feb 2020, 13:54Cyril Abiteboul:https://au.motorsport.com/f1/news/renau ... t/4687813/"This year we decided to take a bit of a different approach.

What Abiteboul said doesn't seem to make sense.
What I assume he means is that Renault will focus on performance areas that can be carried over to 2021, like the nose and packaging? Now that makes a lot of sense.
Great stuff! Ocon seems very happy.
https://au.motorsport.com/f1/news/ocon- ... a/4688036/I've never went that fast in some corners before, so it feels good. It's definitely exciting. Because that's just going to go faster and faster. So we're going to probably break all the records of laptimes I reckon this year.
It's a good base that we are having at the moment. Sometimes when you step in cars and you think ah, there is an issue that you're trying to solve for the whole winter, there isn't any kind of that at the moment.
I love their livery. It looks menacing and badassbauc wrote: ↑19 Feb 2020, 10:11I see Renault went for the ''Batmobile'' livery.... I like it!
