Renault have confirmed they will be racing in Formula One in 2010 with the financial backing of Luxemburg based Genii Capital who have bought a large stake in the team. They also confirmed that a deal to supply Red Bull racing with engines has been agreed.
A Renault statement said "In 2010, the team will retain its name, its identity and the core ingredients that led to the successes achieved in 2005 and 2006. The team will continue to be supplied with engines by its sister company in Viry-Châtillon, which is also pleased to have received a renewed commitment from Red Bull Racing for the 2010 season."
Yep good to see. At least the team knows where it stands now.
So the Renault unit is supposedly more fuel efficient than others on the grid. Are there any figures to show by how much yet? It will be interesting to see the variation on amounts of fuel each car will have to carry, and hence the weight difference.....not that it's likely these will be made public I guess.
