This forum contains threads to discuss teams themselves. Anything not technical about the cars, including restructuring, performances etc belongs here.
We don't know what Alpine doing for next year. They are cocking story from 2017 stating that "they are working on 2021 rule". We never know what the Dish would be in 2022 till test. If the dish is not good, Alonso will not eat it and will go for full time Indy I believe.
Mercedes did some thing in ICE to make robust, Ferrari brought new engine to testing it for this year, Honda already having good reliability(Thanks to Meclaren), Alpine? nothing.
You cannot come to race with new engine and win it straight away. one thing we never know "What Alpine aka Renault" presented to Alonso to sign the deal. Is Alonso satisfied with Alpine's plan and progress to 2022? only Alpine and Alonso knows about it.
As a Fan I am hoping Alonso get a decent Car to challenge WDC in 2022.

finger crossed........
I'm not into predictions.... I understand that Budkowski's statement might mean problems like on next year's PU or they could just mean him putting his stamp on Alpine in that he officially taking over from Cyril. Guess we'll have to wait and see.
Yeah, a promising spot for Fernando. Why not a podium? A P5 was wasted in Turkey. Let's hope this will be better. Both cars in good spots for the fight with AlphaTauri.

Great to see Alonso delivering a superb lap today. He’ll be such fun to watch if he gets to race at the front again - he’d be a great dimension against the young brigade and is so well rounded.
