The newly-named Renault F1 team has unveiled its new car, the RS16, in the pit lane at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya.
The 2016 machine, sporting the interim test livery revealed at its team launch earlier this month, was rolled out at the Spanish circuit in front of media and photographers.
British rookie Jolyon Palmer is joined by Kevin Magnussen at the Enstone-based outfit, after Pastor Maldonado was forced to exit the team due to sponsorship problems.
The car will debut on day one of winter testing, with Palmer at the wheel for the first two sessions on Monday and Tuesday.
Renault returns to F1 as a constructor for the first time since 2010, after taking over the Lotus outfit at the end of last year.
Magnussen and the new team image were announced at a launch event in Paris at the beginning of the month, revealing a black interim livery with yellow accents.
