0Renaultsport’s R.S 01 racecar downgraded
This Renault Motorsports engineered racecar has been modified to compete in the FFSA, the French Grand Touring racing series. To put things shortly, the R.S. 01 has been downgraded to a GT3 specification. The ride height was increased, while the R.S. 01 is powered by a remastered Nissan GT-R engine.
“Since the genesis of the Renault Sport R.S. 01, the interest in our creation has been keen among teams and promoters. The success of the Renaultsport Trophy in the World Series by Renault has confirmed this trend. As competitors, we are extremely enthusiastic about the idea of seeing the R.S. 01 take on the competition. No doubt, it will turn heads among both drivers and spectators. We are extremely grateful in the confidence that Hugues de Chaunac has shown in us and this drives us to continue our discussions with other championships,” Jean-Pascal Dauce, Renault Sport Technologies Motorsport Director, said.
