At the end Alpine notices they would be true. Yeah, those where they said they were going to fightwith Aston Martin.In which they saw themselves as the second best team on the grid after Red Bull. They said it, when they barely added 14 points, and now that they have even gone up to the podium in Monaco,also shining in the Monegasque classification and in Spain, they already see them in the fight.
They already see them in the pool of applicants after, yes, the Red Bull. This is how they confirm it at least in Mercedes,that already place in Canada those ofEsteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly in the same group as Ferrari, Aston Martin and themselves.
“Canada is going to be more along the lines of the first races. We were with Ferrari, Aston Martin… and Alpine, that seems to have come together,” he says.
The truth is that since Miami things seem to have improved for the French. In Monaco, Esteban Ocon arrived even to have the provisional pole to finally get on the podium with Max Verstappen and Fernando Alonso. Gasly, meanwhile, finished seventh.
And in Spain, Pierre did a great ‘qualifying’ to put the car in fourth place, while Ocon had a harder time but he overcame the race to his partner. In the end, eighth and tenth.
In addition, the leading role has ceased to be only in the Free as far as the fights with Alonso are concerned. Stephen, in one of his aggressive maneuvers with Fernando,He almost ended his career in Montmeló with a somewhat questionable action to avoid being overtaken.
Be that as it may and for whatever, Alpine has passed of the scarce 14 points of Miami to be 40. To add 26 in just two tests.
Thus in Mercedes they are already warning maybe they have one more guest for the party…
