The Renault RE60B was the final Formula 1 car produced by Renault before the team withdrew from the sport at the end of the 1985 season. Driven by Patrick Tambay and Derek Warwick, the car featured a turbocharged 1.5-litre EF15B V6 engine that delivered enormous power but was plagued by reliability issues. Despite promising performance in qualifying, race results remained elusive. The RE60B represents both the technological ambition and the turbulent finale of Renault’s first F1 era.
