McLaren Racing and Renault Sport Racing have confirmed today that their Formula 1 power unit supply agreement will not continue when the current three-year contract expires at the end of 2020.

Zak Brown, Chief Executive of McLaren Racing, commented:

“Renault has been instrumental to our Formula 1 recovery plan and a fantastic partner to McLaren Racing. Despite its understandable focus on its factory team, Renault has always been fair, consistent and transparent in our relationship and we thank the whole team at Viry for the excellent service provided to McLaren in F1 over the past two years. Of course, we enter the final year of our relationship in 2020 and are focused on continuing our challenge together of closing the performance gap to the front of the field.”
