Renault has had a profound impact on motor sports, particularly in Formula 1. The company's involvement dates back to 1977 when it formed a partnership with Gilles Villeneuve and Jean-Pierre Jabouille to establish Renault as a full-fledged constructor team. This marked the beginning of an era that would go on to produce some of the most iconic cars in F1 history.
Renault's success in the sport was not limited to just a few seasons, but rather spanned over two decades, producing 35 wins and taking five drivers' championships. The company's technological innovations have also played a significant role in shaping modern-day F1 cars.
