Alpine speaks more clearly about Alonso’s future
Alonso stressed that “I don’t want to disrespect them, but they don’t know much about Formula 1. They are like a football fan, they just follow the results,
They believe that whoever wins does it better and whoever is last has no level for F-1. There is no culture of its own”
“The new generation of fans didn’t see me fighting for the podiums”

Leclerc, good start in France against Verstappen
“Yesterday they were a lot faster. They were complaining on one lap. Maybe now they’ve worked more on one lap and sacrificed a bit of long runs to get better on one lap. With Charles, I didn’t heard there was a problem but they are removing the engine cover…”
Ferrari also changed the clutch system because it wasn’t working well at the start: “Lately, if you look at the starts, we haven’t been as efficient as we should be compared to Red Bull. We’ve done modifications. This is an area where we believe we can improve.”
Now, in these third tests of the French F1 GP 2022, Alonso performs an atanda with medium rubber.
The reverse happened in Austria, which was a more demanding circuit with the rear wheels, which was better for Ferrari, and for that reason it was superior in race pace. We should see this trend throughout the year. So to make your predictions, pay close attention to whether you are racing on a ‘limited front’ circuit (demanding with the front tyres) or ‘limited rear’ (demanding with the rear wheels).
“I think if (the transfer) is the best option for us then we will consider it, but if we have another better option then we would go with this one.”
Marc Gené (Ferrari), said on DAZN F1 that Ferrari, if they changed the engine, would only announce it before the “quality” so as not to give Red Bull any clues. But everything seemed to indicate that it would be so. It’s already happened with Leclerc in Canada, who changed the control unit and on Saturday he changed the whole power unit to start last.
