Renault R30

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

Nice to have you on board Catalina, it's good to have a female voices on the board ...

Most of the F1 fans that I know are women (including my girlfriend) but they are sorely under represented on boards like these!

well, we know the car is going to change on Bahrein, so I'm expectin that. I read somewhere that the R30 was only at 40% on the test, so I'm expecting to see some real changes on all teams.

I really believe Renault could be a dark horse this year... They've been quiet in testing, and looking at Roberts times he has been pretty quick. At least for Robert they have not done any qualifying sims yet either. I fully believe he will be amungst the teams and drivers scrapping at the heels of RBR, Ferrari, Mclaren and Mercedes, and he's a good enough driver to make a difference. Both drivers from the 4 elite will not always perform weekend in weekend out, and i'd be supprised if Kubica isnt the first take their points ;-)!

Despite losing Alonso, Renault have a strong replacement.

Theres gonna be 4 groups of teams in 2010:

Front Enders: Red Bull/Mercedes/Ferarri/McLaren (At the front every race, will win the majority of races)
Dark Horses: Renault/BMW Sauber/Williams (At the front occasionly, very able for for the win)
Will Surprise: Force India/Toro Rosso (Quick, will get to the front on any given race, can win, but experience will make sure thay stay second)
Tail Enders: Virgin/Hispania/Lotus (Will start off looking to get the miles under their belts, and gain relyability before slowly getting better and getting closer to the above group)

True, but they really need two strong drivers for the constructors championship.

I also hope that they are a dark horse and consistently break into the top team stronghold, same for Sauber and Williams.
