A work of art filled with emotion and nostalgia, portraying Alain Prost at the wheel of the Renault Elf RE40 and Gérard Larousse reflected in his stopwatch. A beautiful tribute to this 100% French team that has thrilled us so much.
1983 was a challenging season for the Renault Elf Formula 1 team and for Alain Prost, a disappointed runner-up in the world championship. The season began with the RE 30C, but it was quickly replaced by the RE 40 at the European Grands Prix.
Alain Prost drove this car to victory in the French Grand Prix at Le Castellet, marking his sixth win. He repeated the feat in Belgium, Great Britain and Austria.
The title would be decided at the very last Grand Prix on the Kyalami circuit in South Africa, in a fierce battle between Prost, Piquet and Arnoux.
Victims of engine failures, the two Frenchmen saw Nelson Piquet win his second title. Despite the controversy surrounding the Brabham's misfuelling, Gérard Larousse chose not to lodge a complaint.
The season ended with Prost and Larousse parting ways, leaving behind unforgettable memories of a season that had been as exciting as it had been eventful.
