F1 | Second consecutive weekend without points for Alpine

GP Azerbaijan – For the second consecutive weekend theAlpine he leaves the paddock with broken bones, this time in Baku, and above all without points. In Australia two cars taken to the wrecker, while in Azerbaijan there were many reliability problems on Friday, plus a set-up that was never right due also to the format of the Sprint Race and which does not allow modifications to the car after qualifying. Or with he tried something extreme by starting from the pits and opting for a strategy at the limit, but it didn't pay off at all.

“Bitter and disappointing weekend – said Otmar Szafnauer, Alpine team principal. We must not repeat this type of performance. We started badly on Friday and from then on we were unable to recover in any way or in any session. We were a long way from the ideal car set-up and with such limited options, plus lacking reliability on both cars we had a mountain to climb all weekend. We need to limit these problems and start every race weekend in the right gear to have the best chances on both Saturday and Sunday. We managed to prove our worth in Australia, and in Miami we will have some important updates. We need to work hard as a team, continue to understand how to maximize our packages and aim for a much more positive overall performance in the United States."
