The ING Renault F1 Team completed a successful Roadshow in Dubai this weekend as race driver Nelson Piquet led the demonstrations along with third driver Romain Grosjean and demo driver Adam Khan.

Entering its seventh year, the Renault F1 Roadshow kicked off its 2009 campaign with a unique format, which saw last year's Renault F1 car, the R28, demonstrated at various venues across Dubai, including the desert and Dubai Autodrome.


However, the main venue for the spectator events was Downtown Barj Dubai in front of the world's tallest building with the demonstrations staged on a giant floating platform built on the Dubai Mall lagoon.

The Renault is seen here driven on the highway in the middle of the desert. The story doesn't say if the driver respected the speed limit...
