Alonso and Piquet Jnr in attendance for launch

Renault have unveiled the R29, with a slightly changed livery, at the Algarve circuit on Monday. The Anglo/French squad opted for a low-key launch at the track where the team will be testing. Drivers Fernando Alonso and Nelson Piquet Jnr were both in attendance, along with team boss Flavio Briatore as the R29 made its debut. The new car, like those displayed before it, is designed in accordance to the new 2009 regulations. This means the wing at the front is low and wide while the rear is short and high. The car also features a slight change to last year's livery as Renault have signed French oil company Total to their sponsorship mix.
