“The driver makes no difference now"
Alpine are focusing on restructuring their team, rather than who will drive their car next year, Flavio Briatore claims.Esteban Ocon’s time at the team will end this year, and he will join Haas in 2025, meaning Pierre Gasly needs a new teammate.
But Briatore told the Formula For Success podcast about their line-up: “I don’t know yet. In this moment, the driver is not… Outgoing Ferrari driver Sainz has opted to sign for Williams in 2025, ignoring interest from Alpine and Sauber.Briatore continued: “For me, it’s just the performance of the car. It’s restructuring the team completely.“We are putting all the energy into the technical side to make sure the car of Alpine looks better, and better, and better.Briatore, now 74, was previously the Benetton team boss during Michael Schumacher’s title-winning days.
