Official: Renault presents its R.S.18
Renault team unveiled its 2018 single-seater to the public during an online ceremony. The R.S.18 will be driven by Nico Hülkenberg and Carlos Sainz.
The presentations continue and it’s now Renault’s turn to show us which single-seater Nico Hülkenberg and Carlos Sainz will be driving throughout the 2018 season.
The car’s livery is still primarily yellow and black, but has evolved somewhat compared to last year. The yellow featured this season appears flashier, with bands of yellow running along the rear pontoons of the single-seater, and the tricolor flag is displayed at the tip of its nose. This, incidentally, is reminiscent of the helmet adopted by Nico Hülkenberg for this season.

After failing to achieve its objective of fifth place in the championship in 2017, Renault will aim to progress in the hierarchy and finish as the best of the rest. This will not be an easy task against Force India and the new client McLaren. The Enstone team will rely on a rather balanced driver duo but will have to hope for better reliability and performance from their engine to meet the set ambitions.
Ladies & gentlemen… Meet our 2018 challenger, the @RenaultSportF1 R.S.18! #LaRS18IsComing #RS18 #RSspirit pic.twitter.com/ELdwrD6wNe
