Alpine confident of a smooth run in Sao Paulo as it finds temporary solution for Le Mans-ending engine problem
Alpine is confident it can overcome the engine problem that resulted in the early end to its Le Mans 24 Hours assault in Sunday’s Interlagos World Endurance Championship round. The French manufacturer has revealed that its two A424 LMDhs went out of Le Mans last month inside the first six hours as a result of a valve issue, a problem which Alpine and its Signatech factory team were aware going into the double-points round of the WEC.
“We have had this problem before, but never so early — we were a little surprised to be honest,” he explained. “In testing when we had this issue with the valve it was always after we had completed 24 hours.
