Renault's team principal Cyril Abiteboul believes nobody is as focuses as his team are for 2020 and is optimistic for their chances for the new season.

Since Renault's return to F1 four years ago, they haven't secured a single podium or pole position, coming over 83 races.

The team finished fifth in the constructors' championship in 2019, behind their engine customer, McLaren, ending up 31 points behind their total for the previous year.

"It's a big opportunity, but I don't want to make the same mistake again," Abiteboul told Motorsport Magazine.

"There is no team looking at 2021 the way we are looking at that particular year. I don't think there is any team as advanced as we are on 2021, simply because we have decided to allocate lots of resources to it.

"But 2021 should not be an excuse for having a poor season in 2020. I am expecting a better season, and that we are able to deliver on the changes and improvements that we've made this year."
