New Renault Breaks Cover In
Formula One Test
The car with which Renault
will defend their Formula One titles had its first serious
test on Tuesday at the Jerez circuit in southern
Spain.
Giancarlo Fisichella,
their lead driver following double champion Fernando
Alonso's move to McLaren, did 33 laps before engine problems
stopped the car.
The Italian said poor
track conditions made evaluating the car
difficult.
But he added that the car
was "reacting as expected" and felt similar to the 2005 and
'06 title-winning machines.
"That is a good sign at
this stage," Fisichella said.
The R27 is running in an
interim livery ahead of the team's official launch on 24
January 2007.
Renault will continue work
at Jerez on Wednesday, when Fisichella will be joined by his
new team-mate and sport columnist Heikki Kovalainen in a
second new car.
Technical director Bob
Bell said: "We encountered the normal gremlins that you
expect on any shakedown, but the initial signs and feedback
from Giancarlo were positive."
