devries was weirdly bad tho but he deserved a full season to see what he could do

HOW MANY TEAM PRINCIPALS IS IT GOING TO TAKE?

#

"stability" my ass

Fire Doohan and then Oakes just dips

This the most unstable formula 1 team I've ever seen in my life

#

gasly is so good

neat latch
#

a few months ago i was arguing with someone about this team

#

I was right

#

"oh but they're good now they're stable" no they're not

golden canyon
neat latch
#

I'd say a few months after

#

Before the start of this season i think

golden canyon
#

prolly the colapinto hype then

#

which is fair

neat latch
#

Anyway i don't think anyone has the balls to fire Flavio

#

I think this was always the plan

#

He came back to take over

crude flame
#

Who is supposed to fire him

neat latch
#

Everything

#

The board

#

The ceo, but it was them that brought him in

crude flame
#

The board that hired him?

#

welcome back franco!

neat latch
#

What I'm trying to say here is, Flavio is going to last longer than any of the team principals that came before

#

A lot longer I'd say

#

And this means franco is definitely going to be at imola

pastel cairn
#

And now Oliver Oakes gone too busy time at alpine

golden canyon

what is doohan gonna do now

Off to a early start though

I’m expecting Colapinto to be promoted soon and Gasly to be sacked at the end of the season

didn't colapinto cost williams like 3 milion last year

Oakes must’ve opposed colapinto replacing Doohan

It's definitely that

He was very supportive of doohan

His second choice would’ve been Aron too

Because of hitech

Meanwhile Flavio was breathing on his neck

Yeah

#

Damn briatore is a straight villain

constantly immemse pressure for both of them

If there is someone who can fix and lead the clown show that is Alpine, i unfortunately think it's Flavio briatore

He knows the team from inside out better than anyone, but the other side of the coin is obvious

Poor kiwi

This is also why Leclerc is next

#

i think oakes saw doohan performances after the Miami gp and said "Yeah, i'm out, i'm not dealing with this amount of pressure anymore"

neat latch
#

He was like "guess I'll leave"

#

Because having Flavio watching you 24/7 is not a good feeling

crystal breach
#

not blaming doohan of course, but You know how it is, at the minimum mistake he makes, every medium goes on to Say he's already cooked, and then oakes goes to defend him and all of that, and i Guess he didn't wanted to deal with that anymore

grave parcel
#

saw one source say oakes left for personal reasons but thats too vague to mean anything

crystal breach
neat latch
#

He was doohan's only defender

crystal breach
#

i used to defend doohan but i Lost all hope since the miami Sprint qualifying

south heron
#

he did still outqualify Gasly for the main race

#

I think Briatore really wanted him out in favor of Colapinto but Oakes and a lot of the team refused

neat latch
#

In the eyes of Flavio if you make a mistake, you're as good as Nikita mazepin so consider yourself gone

crystal breach
south heron
#

yeah

#

I'm amazed he hasn't been flopping worse under this insane pressure

#

oh god what if Briatore for some reason wants to drive Gasly away from the team as well and this is how Doohan gets back into the team 💀

sharp hull
#

Gasly will be the top driver forever because barely anyone wants to go there

south heron
#

and why would they

crystal breach
south heron
#

Gasly's probably thinking "at least I'm not stuck at Red Bull's junior team anymore"

The thing is that next year no imola

#

It was quiet for so many days and then you get hit with this

pseudo quail
#

What

round lagoon
#

if we followed that logic he should have remained in haas altogether

#

he even tested at the end of the year

pseudo quail
#

Isn’t hirakawa in haas?

round lagoon
#

he is now

pseudo quail
#

Ah he left after Abu Dhabi!

#

?*

crystal breach
#

i think so

round lagoon
#

not entirely sure, but he did leave before australia

pseudo quail
#

His reason to go back to Haas is still because Toyota is there

#

And he’s a Toyota driver

round lagoon
#

I don't exactly track reserve drivers market

pseudo quail
#

Don’t know about the pre season move

#

Some other reason there

crystal breach
round lagoon
#

So yuki to aston next year

jaunty path
#

wait colapinto is in for 5 races only???

#

so they might decide to just put doohan back after that or

round lagoon
#

For at least 5 races

#

Nah, that was just a formality

jaunty path
#

i see

round lagoon
#

Jack is sacked

jaunty path
#

jacked even

crystal breach
#

but well, he just needs to score some points and that's it, he's in

jaunty path
#

i really hope franco gets a better opportunity soon though

#

alpine isnt exactly the best place to be, better than nothing for now but ye

crystal breach

pseudo quail
# round lagoon So yuki to aston next year

If his ties are that strong. Atleast with hirakawa he drove directly for Toyota in wec and was a reserve in f1 to get experience. I think they’ve been the ones to get him into the McLaren role too even if it’s not a direct relation for McLaren-Toyota. I don’t know the reason for him being at Alpine and whether Toyota was involved in that, but could be just him getting there on his own. Tsunoda is already an f1 driver so it’s harder to compare

jaunty path
#

i would love to see a yuki alonso lineup

#

it wont happen ye ye

round lagoon
#

I mean, best he could do in aston is a reserve

jaunty path
#

but imagine

pseudo quail
#

Someone has to replace Alonso

round lagoon
#

Because nepotism and rookie is still in for 26

crystal breach
#

dont You daré disprespect My boy stroll like that 💔💔💔

pseudo quail
#

If they don’t get max maybe yuki is the second best?

jaunty path
#

if they want to win anything, stroll is the one to go

#

it is what it is

round lagoon
#

2027 could open some chances in aston

#

Or if papa stroll opens that wec team

jaunty path
#

just put that guy into the new WEC project and he still gets to drive cool cars

crystal breach
#

don't You daré disprespect My boy Q1 eliminations World Record like that 💔

round lagoon
#

Maybe his old man got angry for him underperforming for a change

frosty jackal
#

This alpine announcement is giving off a bit of RB vibes icl

crystal breach
#

but still, being above Alonso in points, it's like a new high for him

round lagoon
#

his peak was 2020 with the pink benz

crystal breach
#

i miss those times

#

the times when he would actually get into the car with hopes of performing

round lagoon
#

no doubt

crystal breach
#

right now he just takes the whole f1 scenario like a "whatever"

round lagoon
#

albeit he didn't finish higher than 16th for the last 4 races

#

hopefully he'll get his act together or go to wec

crystal breach
#

i would prefer WEC

#

but yeah i hope he keeps improving, he has some Hidden potential, but it's so Hidden that he forgot where to find it

round lagoon
#

but yeah, nepotism and cash have done their thing

pseudo quail
# round lagoon Or if papa stroll opens that wec team

They don’t have a choice there. The wec team is them just building a car for a team owned by Hearts of Racing, their usual wec team partner. HoR spent the money to test and fine tune the car, so they also get to pick their drivers

round lagoon
#

well papa stroll is funding them so I highly doubt he'll pay up if they can't guarantee a seat for lance

pseudo quail
#

Yeah. Don’t know how wec structures work. OnlyEndurance had a post about it that explained why Stroll’s dad can’t just send him to Wec

round lagoon
#

because no one can guarantee him a seat

#

plus no valhalla wec car

pseudo quail
#

Nvm it was a post about Drugovich not getting a wec seat. Stroll isn’t even considered by anyone

pseudo quail
wet sequoia
#

Aston has some pulling power but unlike in F1 where Lawrence has the final word he doesn’t have it in WEC

#

They’re the manufacturer for HoR team, they have power but not the giant decision making hammer

pseudo quail
#

Yeah

round lagoon
#

as I said, they are funding the team and providing the cars

#

so de facto they do have strings there as well

tribal vapor

Know who you are

Stroll likes kids?

rip doohan

round lagoon
#

and hopefully not

pseudo quail
#

Hmmmmmm

torpid halo
#

Hello

tender cypress
#

Doohan replaced

#

So early

regal needle
#

He'll keep Working Hard and get ready to return to the Track when the Time comes

daring berry
# tribal vapor

everywhere i go i see his face (i waa one of the first to send it 😭 )

full tulip
#

Imagine if pistri went to alpine

#

best move in f1 histroy lol

golden canyon

#

Oscar is fine with McLaren

#

It's his decision that he doesn't wanna race for Alpine

shell chasm
#

Doohan getting replaced is bullshit

#

He wasn’t even the worst rookie

regal needle
#

What else maybe is for Jackie?

#

Looking at Isack and Kimi so far, They did doing Good

neat fern
golden narwhal
#

autoracer saying ferrari is making a new rear suspension

pseudo quail
golden narwhal
#

and perhaps will be included in spain upgrades or onwards

#

no plans for imola

neat fern
golden narwhal
#

eh

#

rn i think

#

yes

#

a lot of noise atm

pseudo quail
#

Big upgrade in Spain I think

#

Till then just smaller bits

neat fern
#

yeah

golden narwhal
#

i think brakeboosted said a small one for imola

#

but not for fixing the car

neat fern
#

then for what

golden narwhal
#

thats the planned development

#

like scheduled

#

whats the word

neat fern
#

ok

golden narwhal
#

standard development plan

#

of theirs

#

just like bahrain

neat fern
#

yh

golden narwhal
neat fern
#

but mimai was planned

#

tho

golden narwhal
#

well here he said

#

"real"

#

so maybe either a small fix or just standard

#

cause i think atp they all know its the rear suspension

#

high speed downforce isnt even a problem if we look back to jeddah

neat fern
#

their problem is roatation in low/medium speed

#

rotation

golden narwhal
#

yeah for some reason its just bad on corner entry

#

its very peculiar

#

and traction zones

#

so entry and exit

sly badger
#

They lost that excellent traction they had

golden narwhal
#

well

#

tbh they were never excellent in any traits

regal needle
golden narwhal
#

SF-24 was very all-around car

#

as it is atm too ngl

#

its just slower than everyone else

sly badger
#

All because they changed the front suspension

#

Just like the F2012

golden narwhal
#

well you can say that

#

i would say they didnt change the rear with the front

#

cause thats what everyone did

sly badger
#

And the 2013 McLaren as well

golden narwhal
#

its weird cause i thought about how their car would pitch under braking

#

with their subpar front anti dive

#

and their rear pull rod suspension

#

wouldnt that mean it would pitch forward even more

sly badger
#

IDK, all i know is that for the 2nd time, we have a team who had the possibly fastest car or package to make a fastest car in the next season (again, Ferrari was literally fighting for the WCC with McLaren and finished 12pts behind), and they decided to change the whole philosophy in the final year of the regulations when they have to focus into 2026 asap

deep spear
#

NAAAAAAHHH

#

Why'd they remove Doohan man

#

Could've given a bit more time

sly badger
#

I don't know, six race weekends have passed and Alpine only has 7 pts and those points only came from Gasly so far
