Alpine’s planning error that can end Fernando Alonso

The failures that the Spaniard like Esteban Ocon have accumulated transcend in the mechanical

It is no secret to anyone that Fernando Alonso has always been very careful when referring to Alpine. Also, she has learned to speak more with his gestures than with his wordsso many times they are the whites that he leaves between the phrases what really hides the message.

when he finished the Canadian GPthe Spaniard insisted that going from the 2 to 7 position it was because they were unlucky. He did not understand why the engine failures were concentrated in the ’14’, his car, and that sooner or later he had to turn the situation around.

Alpine’s failures are an issue that doesn’t have to involve Fernando Alonso

Minutes earlier, he made it abundantly clear that his frustration had nothing to do with mechanics. Alpine suffers from a serious lack of waist problem. In a Formula 1 in which it is as or more important to know when to pit than to have a competitive car, the French team has not measured up.

And it is that in Canada, they failed miserably. In the interview you hear how Karen Loos seriously errs in reading the times and it has to be the pilot himself who warns her that she was wrong. “You will start 5th ahead of Ocon”, they assured her about the position in which they calculated that she was going to have.

Mercedes and Red Bull have been favored with the problems of the French team

It is not the first time that Alpine has shown that they do not know how to change their strategy if the race requires it. While Red Bull or Mercedes often take advantage of tricky conditions or circumstances, such as an accident or an early safety car, Alpine all costs much more than others.

If not knowing how to change the initial plan is worrying. In Canada, Alonso started losing time due to engine problems on lap 20. They didn’t realize it until lap 28, when little could be done. The solution to prevent Alonso from losing more time was to stop Esteban Ocon.
