The Renault R25: technological masterpiece of 2005

The Renault R25 was born in 2005 in a unique context for Formula 1, marked by the introduction of new technical regulations.

Renault in Formula 1: French excellence in racing

Renault's Formula 1 adventure officially began in 1977, marking the French manufacturer's spectacular entry into the world's elite of motorsport. A pioneer of the turbocharged engine with the RS01, nicknamed the "yellow teapot," Renault revolutionized the sport and had a lasting influence on the technical evolution of Formula 1. In 2005, under the leadership of Flavio Briatore and the technical expertise of the Enstone-based team, Renault F1 Team reached its peak. The combination of Michelin tires and the exceptional talent of Fernando Alonso created a perfect synergy. This golden period, which continued with Alonso's second title in 2006, established Renault as a key figure in the paddock, combining French technological innovation with world-class sporting performance.
