Magnussen: the Renault V6 has evolved well

Kevin Magnussen can test the developments of Renault made on the Power Unit by participating in the tests F1 from Barcelona. The Dane, who set the fourth fastest time in the morning of the second day of testing, was already enthusiastic about the performance gain at the break.

“The engine is nice, it has become more flexible”, explained the Renault driver in the paddock at the Circuit de Catalunya. “There is more power, although it is difficult to see the difference on board because you never know if you are at 330 or 333 km/h for example. The engineers are there to inform us. »

“This Power Unit is better than the old one. We didn't have much time to test it beforehand and it immediately performed better. I hope we will have these developments in Monaco, but it’s not me who decides.”, specified Kevin Magnussen.
