While Fernando Alonsotaking advantage of the stratospheric start to the season of Aston Martin, he has left several ‘darts’ on the way to Alpineto the former team of the two-time world champion of Formula 1 you can see the seams of longing for the figure of the Asturian.
And not only towards the pilot, but also towards the ‘miracle’ of his team. There is no memory of an evolution similar to that of the Silverstone brand for the second year of regulation in F1 history.
Alan Permanesports director of Alpinedoes not give credit to that they are at the level of Ferrari and Mercedes when last year it was the seventh car.
“I don’t think anyone expected Aston Martin to make the leap that it hasso they have jumped to those teams for what it seems (Ferrari and Mercedes)”, explained the one who was an engineer of Fernando Alonso both in Renault and in Alpine in statements to ‘The Race’.
harsh self-criticism
While only Alonso has 60 pointsbetween Ocon and Gasly barely add eightwhich shows the bad start to the season of the French team.
“We cannot afford to perform below our means. Everything that could go wrong was worse for us“, has indicated Permane doing self-criticism.
“You have to be prepared to start well and have a very clean weekend, which we didn’t do with any car in Free Practice, and control slipped away from there like a snowball“, has added.
