The demonstration run was confirmation that the idea of fully-electric single-seater race cars is very much a reality to which Renault, as a technical partner, has made a significant contribution with its race and EV expertise.
Renault Sport Technologies CEO Patrice Ratti, said: “The work that has been done by all technical partners over the last few months has been fantastic and the car lives up to our high competition standards. We are very happy about the result so far and our engineers will keep working with Spark, Dallara, McLaren, Williams and Michelin to further improve the car so that all teams can compete with a 100% electric race car when the championship begins.”
