Renault’s strongest weekend since the revival of its works team in 2016 at Spa might reveal to the team the key to unlocking improved performance, argues Gary Anderson in his latest podcast.

Daniel Ricciardo and Esteban Ocon finished fourth and fifth in the Belgian Grand Prix, with the Australian bagging fastest lap for good measure, but most importantly they found the car’s sweet spot.

In the latest Gary Anderson F1 show podcast, the former Jaguar and Jordan F1 technical director explains what Renault might have unlocked and [how it can be applied to other circuits](https://www.the-race.com/formula-1/gary-anderson-what-renault-should-do-about-its-downforce-oddity/).

In an episode full of listener questions, Anderson also explains Ferrari’s struggles, how to judge if a driver is getting the maximum from the car, and what he makes of Racing Point’s inconsistency.
