Fernando Alonso secured his first victory in his title winning season from pole position on this day in 2005, confirming that Renault will compete for the championship title while Jarno Trulli finished second and gave Toyota's first Formula 1 podium.

The head of Renault's F1 team, Cyril Abiteboul, is leaving the company after he was at the helm of Renault's F1 project for five years, and his role should be taken over by Marcin Budkowski.

Pedro de la Rosa believes Fernando Alonso's return is positive for Formula One and believes the two-time world champion can win the third title he has been trying to win since 2007.

Renault’s Cyril Abiteboul praised his former driver Daniel Ricciard for the positive impact he has had on the team over the last two seasons and wished him all the best in the continuation of his F1 career at McLaren.

Fernando Alonso returned to the wheel of a Formula 1 car today for the first time in nearly two years after he tested this year's Renault R.S.20 in Barcelona which he labeled as a 'nice suprise'.

Fernando Alonso won the first title in his F1 career on this day in 2005 with third place in the Brazilian Grand Prix behind the two McLarens of Raikkonen and Montoya

Kimi Raikkonen and Juan Pablo Montoya were on their way to the first 1-2 victory of the season for McLaren, but the incident between Montoya and Pizzonia allowed Fernando Alonas to finish the second and limit the damage in the title fight.

Renault has shown their definite livery for 2020 F1 season in Australia and a new title sponsor and instead of the predominantly black color in the tests, the car will have more yellow during the season as in the last few seasons.

The managing director of Renault's F1 team, Cyril Abiteboul, is optimistic ahead of the new F1 season beginning this weekend in Australia, and believes their new R.S.20 car and driver line-up have great potential.

Renault finally showed off its new F1 car for 2020 on the first day of pre-season testing in Barcelona after avoiding showing its contender in their 2020 F1 season launch.
