Renault R.S.01 GT3 '16
Renault's mid-engine R.S.01 GT3 brings aggressive aerodynamic styling and a lightweight 1,220 kg chassis to Gr.3 competition, making it exceptionally nimble through technical corners and chicanes where its low mass provides a decisive advantage. Built on the brand's racing heritage, this turbocharged machine excels on tight, twisty circuits like Suzuka and Brands Hatch where precise handling matters more than raw straightline speed, rewarding smooth, progressive inputs from drivers who prioritize cornering momentum over braking aggression.
