LOL things are not looking good for Renault....(RBR, Torro Rosso, Caterham). RBR have barely managed to do 11 laps of testing over 3 days......with constant issues with overheating and powertrain failures etc.

Quote:
Whilst each of the Renault customer teams have worries of their own which do not relate to the engine, TJ13 has discovered that the French F1 engine manufacturer now requires around 20 weeks to rectify the problems they are currently experiencing. This takes us up to the British Grand Prix
#F1 Testing: Jerez Day 3 Renault Woes Continue, Magnusson shines | thejudge13

Could actually be a VERY interesting start to the season....

"Has discovered"

It might take 20 weeks of time, but wont take 20 weeks. They will compressed that into working 24/7 with huge teams. You think Renault will allow its teams to run 500m before exploding into fire?

Looks like they are pretty screwed.

Regardless of if they get them better they have still lost 3 days of practice.

Be interesting to see between the end of this practise session and the end of the oz GP how well they will far considering that they will get 0 on track time.

Wow didn't realise Renault issues were that big. Good for mixing F1 up again, bad as a Ricciardo fan!
