Despite some difficult moments during 2022, Alpine and Renault knew that their extreme F1 engine push was a calculated risk. Here's why they believe it was worth it:
By the end of the year, it was no surprise to find Alonso especially unhappy about just how much trouble he had faced and the price he had paid personally for it.
The tactic, therefore, was to throw everything at bringing performance from the off: even if it meant that things were not as reliable initially as they needed to be.would go on to endure, it was always a case of short-term pain for long-term gain. "We really wanted to push to the very last moment, and sometimes a bit too late, because we had some issues. But we really wanted to push the maximum on the development side."Famin acknowledges that its approach triggered some difficult moments in 2022, but he is adamant it was the right thing to do."We had problems in Singapore; two in fact which were very strange because to have two different problems in eight laps were quite incredible.
What it means is that the reliability troubles have not triggered any need to sacrifice performance to play it safe; which is exactly what had been hoped for.
