F1 | Renault double retirement in Bahrain, Ricciardo and Hulkenberg looking for redemption

Renault is called to redemption after the sensational double retirement in Bahrain, with Ricciardo and Hulkenberg, both in the points area in the first sector at the same time with a few laps to go. The Australian did not complete the first two races due to technical problems, while Nico, after Meloburne's good performance, recorded his first 0 of the season. Last year in China, Ricciardo won after a good comeback and a good strategy, and he will try to do his best to at least finish in the top ten for the first time this season.

“Formula 1 continues to grow in popularity in China – Hulkbenberg said. It's the 1.000th Grand Prix in the history of Formula 1 and this is really special: the fans are usually very warm in Shanghai, which is fantastic to see and makes it even more important for us to put on a show. Renault has a big market in China and there will be a lot of activity over the weekend."

“Until last year I did quite well in China, but without ever getting on the podium – Ricciardo said – but then I made it in 2018 and it was beautiful. It was a great win, coming from sixth on the grid, which made it special. In terms of track layout, it is a unique track: Turn 1 is very complicated and offers many overtaking opportunities, you can also overtake at 6, 9 and 14, and there are some places to make braking attacks, which is Handsome".
