F1 | Spanish GP, Renault with obvious problems in the qualifying simulation

Renault is certainly not where he hoped to be after the two free practice sessions of today. Il team francese ha concluso con i due piloti ben ontani dalla top ten (quattordicesimo e quindicesimo). Nico Hülkenberg (43 giri) ha concluso la giornata come il pilota più veloce della squadra, facendo segnare il tempo di 1:18.861 nella sessione pomeridiana, con Ricciardo (40 giri) 73 millesimi di ritardo. Entrambi i piloti hanno avuto di un buon passo gara.

“During the free 1 we evaluated some new aerodynamic components - Nick Chester, Technical Director of Renault said. In the afternoon, however, they were the usual qualifying and race simulations and the differences with the tire mixes. Our rhythm for the dry lap and the balance of the car was not fast, so we will have to work at night. However, our long runs with medium rubber have improved, we still have a margin to try to arrive in Q3 tomorrow ".
