“With a hard job from Gibson [engine supplier], with a hard job with my power management and so on, and with the fuel tank,” he said.
When he was asked the follow-up questions to confirm it the team had its fuel tank size increased, Sinault replied: “Yes.” |
Now that is called dirty tactics. They left the whole World wondering how could they stretch they fuei mileage further to promote the knowledge and the "Renault Magic" that they made so efficient changes ...a Shame.
What is going on with the homologation then??
If they were beaten to this extent by the bleeding Toyotas with a larger fuel tank, what are they hoping for the next year?
