Neither of them started the season well, but as the races have progressed Alpine and McLaren they fought to be rooms in the Constructors’ World Cup, since the Red Bull, the Ferrari and the Mercedes they are unattainable. This battle has dragged on and it won’t be until last race in Abu Dhabi when sentence is pronounced.
Alpine, now with 153 points, had a greater advantage, but the results achieved in recent races have meant that now McLaren, with 146, is only seven points away. those of Enstone they have added in the last five tests 28 pointswhile those of Woking, 45.
Yes Fernando Alonso’s car would not have broken down on so many occasions, the French would have secured fourth place long ago. The Spaniard has only been able to add 12 points in the last five races.
alpine slump
In Italy, Singapore and the last race in Mexico his Alpine stoppedwhile in Japan and the United States finished sevenththough at Suzuka his team ignored him on the radio when he said that he had to stop earlier to put intermediate tires and in Austin he had the accident with Lance Stroll.
In your partner’s case Stephen Oconalso dropped out in singaporebut in Italy Y USA could not get past eleventh position. In Japan achieved a good fourth place in the rain and in Mexico it was eighth.
McLaren improvement
In the case of McLaren, lando norris said a long time ago that in that Alpine-McLaren battle, he was alone against Alonso and Ocon. And it is that Daniel Ricciardo has barely been competitive throughout the season.
One of his best races was just last weekend at Mexicobut before that they only highlight a fifth place in Singapore and a sixth in Australia in the third race of the season.
In the case of Norrisis he only driver behind Red Bull, Ferrari and Mercedes to exceed 100 points. He has 111, and the British has shown a great level throughout the year. In fact, he even got on the podium in Imola when finishing third.
The British has scored points in 16 of the 20 races disputed and is the big culprit that makes McLaren in the fight with Alpine for that P4 in constructors.
Two races left in Brazil Y Abu Dhabi (along with a sprint in the South American country), so there are still many points to be shared until the checkered flag at the circuit of yas marina.
