Alpine A524

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

Well, it was a nightmare. The car was supposed to be good here - non power related track.

Yeah, they lost in quali, but afterwards, on Sunday, the race pace was awful. Back to where we started. Absolute nightmare.

A handful of minor updates for this weekend at Spa :

Nothing fundamental enough to transform the car into a winner, but it should help the team forward for this weekend

How do you know its minor? Looks quite quite. Front wing change is always important.

Only one car got the new parts? Which one? Both images are with temp livery. Or they just tested old spec during practices?

Ocon ran with the old bodywork friday, then both cars got the updates.

THX - The changes look decent! The race pace and tire management were nice. I hope it will deliver the next racer.

What worries me the most is poor reliability level od Gasly car.

Still no consensus on the best nose tip design. There must be some pretty even trade-offs between the two styles, I wonder what those are?
