MONACO - Daniel Ricciardo and Nico Hulkenberg can expect to be back on full power from Sunday’s Monaco Grand Prix after Renault fixed a fundamental engine problem that has slowed them in recent races.
“There will be another step from this weekend onwards, so basically we are back to the competitiveness level of the engine at the season start, which was really strong,” he said. A revised engine was introduced for Spain, the race before Monaco, but still with some restrictions pending assessment. “This winter we were given the opportunity to properly focus on power gain, and competitiveness. What it meant was we consciously decided to focus on performance to the detriment of reliability,” he explained.
The problems have had a big impact on track, with Renault eighth out of 10 teams while new signing Ricciardo, last year’s winner for Red Bull in Monaco, has finished only once in the points.“We’ve grown up massively in Enstone , moving from 450 to 750 , but frankly our practices, our organization, our processes are the same today as they were when we were 400, or even as we were maybe back in 2005,” he said.
