Formula 1 : Renault secures fourth in 2018 F1 Constructors’ Championship

Renault Sport Formula One Team secured fourth position in the Constructors’ Championship with an outstanding result in today’s #abudhabi Grand Prix. #carlossainz claimed sixth position in the 55-lap race, giving Renault its best result in the championship since its return to Formula 1 in 2016.

The result shows the strong progress of #renaultsport Formula One Team; ninth in 2016, sixth in 2017 and now fourth in the third year of its current incarnation. The team’s 122 points more than doubles last year’s total.


Nico Hülkenberg finishes the season with 69 points and seventh position in the Drivers’ Championship, his best finish to date. Carlos’ season total is 53 points and P10 in the championship.

  • Carlos started from P11 on the Pirelli Ultrasoft (purple) tyres and fought up to sixth behind the Mercedes, Red Bulls and remaining Ferrari. He pitted for a new set of Supersoft (red) tyres on lap 37, rejoining in sixth.
  • Nico started from P10 on the Ultrasoft (purple) tyres, but an incident with Romain Grosjean on the first lap pitched him into a series of barrel rolls. He came to rest upside down on the barriers, but left the car uninjured.
