AElbin is not completing a good season. After the last Test in Pak, the franc team was the last in the world championship of builders with a total of 13 points. They only improve Sauber, because the team of Guanyu Zhou and Valtteri Bottas, he does not know what it is to add this year. Last June, the gala team made the arrival of Flavio Briatore as an executive consultant responsible, and from that moment he tried to change things to get them on the right track.
He hasn’t done that this season and the results keep coming. The Italian has given an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport, And He confirmed that he is trying to close important additions such as Adrian Newey or Carlos Sainz. This has not come to an end, Both ended up joining other teams on the grid, Aston Martin and Williams. This does not make him throw in the towel, and Flavio is confident that the performance will begin to grow in the future.
Briatore changes
Esteban Ocon left the team to join Haas, while the French chose to transfer from their academy to Jacques Doohan. This is one of the main changes in the Alps for next year , and the Italian wants to repeat a formula that he has already used in the Great Circus:”I’m not one to buy pilots, I always liked them to grow at home. I did it with Michael Schumacher and Fernando Alonso, who are not exactly two men. I think and hope that Doohan will give us guarantees in 2025.”In addition, he emphasizes that the main problem this season is not the riders, but the car.
The movements he has completed since his arrival are not all the ones he would have liked. Well, in this interview he admitted that Try to get the services of two heroes of this Silly season: “I tried to hire Carlos Sainz and Adrian Newey , but the negotiations did not go well”. Finally, the engineer selected those from Silverstone and El madrillo for the James follies team.
The future of the Alps
Having failed to close these engagements, the consultant has no choice but to work with what he has. In addition, he wanted to highlight the importance of teamwork on the integration of specific personalities: “I am more focused on teamwork. One night I approached the factory and saw about 80 people working , which has not happened so far.”.
The Italian believes in the return of the Alps. His current season is bad, but he has already set his sights on next year. The consultant knows what it means to win in the first category of motorsport, assures that he has not forgotten: “I have always won titles with a budget 30% less than competitors and I have not forgotten the magic formula. Now , I’ve put my helmet back on to listen to the guys in the garage and I’m ready to make the Alps Great Again.”The goal of El and the team is clear, now they have to get out of the lowest levels to return to the path of good results .
