Another F1 team announces their 2020 car launch date

Renault will launch their 2020 F1 car on February 12. The team made the announcement themselves on Twitter with a picture of drivers Daniel Ricciardo and Esteban Ocon focusing hard.

2019 wasn't a particularly positive year for the French team who went backwards on their best of the rest finish the previous season. The team, who say they are on a journey towards the top, will need to fight back.

Ocon joins Ricciardo as the Frenchman makes his return to Formula 1. Ocon spent a full year at the back of the Mercedes garage looking to replace Valtteri Bottas. But an improved Bottas held on to his seat and Mercedes were forced to let Ocon move on.

Their car will be made visible to the public on Wednesday, February 12.
