Renault took to the track for its filming day at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya ahead of the preseason test set to take place next week.
The French outfit revealed the R.S.17 on Tuesday with an aggressive yellow and black livery to balance the changes to a challenger they hope can be among the top five teams in Formula 1.
Jolyon Palmer was given the honor of giving the R.S.17 its first laps at the Spanish circuit.
The only footage came from the team via Twitter and can be seen below:
