I don’t know…..I count 8 exhaust fins, and a higher exhaust chimney…I think they are running a spec engine for the “Ring”….out of character for them!!!
I can only see the standard Renault's rear cover, with full shark grills on the sidepods and the usual chimneys (at least, one of the already seen versions)...
Location: Covilhã, Portugal (and sometimes in Évora)

I also count the 8 gills...the exaust chimney is new....I just looked at previous pictures and the chimney is thinner, longer and sligthly more outward. It is slightly diferent from the chimney used in Monaco.
I remember them using a really long one by standards during the Bahrain GP Friday practice sessions. I'm not so sure about the width but it was rather long.
From the beginning of the season that Renault tunes up cooling with an array of different chimneys (varying thicknesses, open top or finns, shape...).
I could be wrong, but I feel I've already seen this one...
I dont mean to be a prick, but I count 9 openings(one under the shadow, guys) and I have to agree that chimney looks different to me, what you have to notice is the particular location of it in relation to the winglet thats behind it. Renault must have done some modification since monaco is a slower track and requires extra attention to quick evacuation of the hot air from the engine bay.
