Follow live coverage of Renault's F1 launch event from Paris via video and Twitter.

Renault is launching a comprehensive new motorsport program including its F1 team after completing a takeover of Lotus at the end of 2015. The move sees Renault return as an F1 constructor having been an engine supplier since the end of 2010.

The team is set to announce its driver line-up for 2016, with Kevin Magnussen expected to be named as Jolyon Palmer's team-mate. Renault will also confirm the F1 team's management structure, with Infiniti also expected to come on board after the end of its Red Bull deal last year.
