In Viry-Chatillon we could focus on the WEC
In Canada the Alpine recorded the best weekend of the season, finishing in the points with both cars in ninth and tenth position – not without controversy for a radio team pro Pierre Gasly and against Esteban Ocon – three points which, added to the two already awarded, allowed the team led on the track by Bruno Famin to break away from the Williams and place the Haas in seventh at seven.
A result, the one achieved in Montreal, which certainly gives some oxygen to the French team which remains at the center of rumors and speculations that chase each other in the paddock. As reported by Sky Sports in fact there would be three consortiums ‘ready’ to take over the team, one of which is led by Flavio Briatorea thesis in contrast with what was revealed by Corriere della Sera according to which Briatore was given the role of supervisor to try to accelerate the purchasing campaign to repopulate the ranks of Alpine following the recent departures of numerous prominent members of the technical organization chart.
At Mugello we met Davide Brivio who said that the results of the readjustment will not be seen before 2026, the season in which the cars and engines will change in F1. Precisely this last topic is the subject of the sensational indiscretion reported by Joe Saward in the latest episode of his blog. According to the journalist Alpine is looking for a power unit supplier to save money and to have a good chance of being able to count on a competitive engine in 2026. The Renault power unit is the worst of the lot at the moment and the FIA has not given a year to interrupt the freeze to allow the French technicians to intervene on the drive units . The Viry-Chatillon plant, if an external supply were actually found, would remain active and focused on the WEC.
