New "radical" suspension for Renault?

While not the focus of this article (http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/motorsp ... 243268.stm), it says, "Renault are hoping a radical new suspension system, cleared by governing body the FIA, will help to restore their competitive edge at the Hungaroring."

Anyone know what it is?

Yes it is the Mass damper system as covered in mumerous threads in this forum.

The link for the article has changed, but it was referring to a "radical" rear suspension, not the front or the mass damper.

Yes, they had new suspension in Germany but I don't know a thing about it.

They've used it only in Germany and than switched back to old version. Fernando told them during tests that he thinks it is not good but they didn't listen and paid the price. Pat Symonds admitted that.
