2022 Alpine F1 Team

[Redragon]

at least he has the power to compete. Merc PU is behind of Renault. Alo good starts could save his mistake on qualy

[fouad1979]

Not bad for first Quali, beat one Mercedes, but Alonso final lap was quite bad... Whit his Q2 lap i think he would be in front of MAG and BOT.

Yes he would be in front of them maybe he made mistake in turn 1 like Russel

[NAPI10]

How is long run pace looking?
Alonso has great chance to be in Top 5 tomorrow.

[diffuser]

Sheet Alonso did a mistake in Q3 and lost 7 thents

He did make several mistakes, not sure if he screwed up tire warm up on the out lap. My calculation is a 1:31.5 or 1:31.6 was possible.

So if ALO managed to put the lap together then they're 1 second off the leaders. Decent progress, last year they were 1.25 seconds off the leaders in qualifying

Bit disaapointed but i guess i got carried away by practice 2 pace, expected alonso to be P5 and within .5 second from leader. Gap looks big , less hopeful for race tomm now.

[Alonso Fan]

Very happy. Was worried they'd do a mclaren tbh. The sweetener is that alonso messed up his lap and Friday race pace was on par with merc. Now we need a good start and i think we can hope for some good points for tomorrow. Five year plan going better than Aston so far

1s with a new regulation its bad thats mean that Alpine does not have great ingeniors in fry and co

The 2nd sector is their biggest weakness. So they've got to improve there. It doesn't bode well for tracks like Spain.

That would be same as throwing the baby out with the bath water. too rash

Anyone here speaking spanish???

I am happy, I am happy as we didn't know where we were.
Surprise to be both fighting for Q3
Now is time to push new parts and developrment on next races
To close the gap to the liders that it is a bit more of 1 sec in qualy
I felt confortable during the 3 Q runs, the last one no so happy
But the weekend has been in general good
And tomorrow the degradation of the Tyres is the clue
We are going to have to be careful with the planning and strategy
As it is an incognita as no body has done the 52 laps that there are tomorrow on race
And also what kind of Tyres you choose would be important as there are going to be different strategies
And let's see who gets the right choice and strategy


More or less he says that

Thanks.

That seems more like an aero efficiency deficit. With the engine freeze, being behind on power might've been a bigger concern. Although the Ferrari PU still looks to be comfortably ahead. Would be interesting to see if they have more performance to unlock from the PU once they deem it a bit more reliable.

[Jambier]

So all this plan, « we are focusing on 2022 » new engine and so on

To be at same poor level and behind Haas

What a joke

Still early. The season isn't won on the first race. We still have to run the race.
