I doubt it. Zak's Mclaren with Merc PU and James Key et al seems a better place to be than Renault at the moment.PowerandtheGlory wrote: ↑30 May 2020, 12:30The news today sounds more positive- with the future safe.. maybe Danny Ricc might regret leaving....
Every team will have to lay off staff to meet the new budget cap. McLaren are doing so now. As for the automotive side of the business, they were aggressively expanding and have had to curtail that for a while.PowerandtheGlory wrote: ↑04 Jun 2020, 11:38Maybe - but hearing the news that Mclaren have also laid off Staff including in F1 cant be great news, they were even going to mortgage their own historic race cars... I think the budget cap plays into the hands of teams like Renault..

it's funny. You'll never hear Cyril just saying : We wont do stupid --- and we just want to race and beat everyone fair. With his mentality Renault will have a hard time to beat the likes of Ferrari, RB, Merc and McLaren.JordanMugen wrote: ↑27 Jun 2020, 00:33Cyril Abiteboul said:https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/rena ... n/4812222/McLaren will have to use all their tokens on the pure chassis/engine integration, so no performance development there, that will give us the opportunity to work extremely normally with Daniel.
Typical Cyril! Funny guy sniping at the other teams.
With tensions between Williams and Mercedes w.r.t. Rokit sponsorship, perhaps that is a good opportunity for Renault to sell a customer power unit supply to Williams F1 and improve economies of scale at Viry?
Yeah, well that's partly because of the fact they had nothing to blame at all ... being a second a lap faster than anyonedjos wrote: ↑03 Jul 2020, 01:35I don’t know about that, he send to play the blame game just as well as Cyril and that’s not a healthy culture to base your organisation on.
Mercedes uses agile style blameless retrospective and has shown how effective they are. Mistakes happen, but paths need to learn from them, improve and move forward.
