Renault car better than Toyota's - Symonds

Renault car better than Toyota's - Symonds

25 September 2008

With his team level on points with Toyota in the constructors' championship and fighting to finish the season fourth overall, Renault engineering director Pat Symonds says he believes his car is stronger and should prevail in the final four rounds of the year.

"Obviously, as the number of races decreases, even a constant gap becomes more difficult to deal with and so it's nice to have made up the ground we needed to so quickly," Symonds said of his team having closed a ten-point gap to Toyota in the past two races.

"I do believe that on balance our car is better than the Toyota; it's very close and there are certainly days when they might be stronger than us and days when we are stronger than them," he added. "We beat them in Monza by out racing them as a team, but it's far from over and we know we are going to have a tough fight on our hands through to the end of the season."
