Over the Miami race weekend, Alpine CEO Laurent Rossi criticized the team, calling their actions this year unacceptable and at times amateurish. Team leader from Enstone Otmar Safnauer responded to his boss’s words.
“Reading such comments in the newspapers does not put any extra pressure on us, as the whole team already wants to succeed on the track,” Racingnews365 quoted Safnauer as saying. – We have experienced mechanics and mechanics of the highest level, we create pressure for ourselves and want to fix everything.
I have no idea why he made such comments. Ask him, but I will also talk to him and ask questions. I was busy this weekend and didn’t have the opportunity.
We underperformed in Baku, our riders collided in Australia, in the first race we got penalties because Esteban took the wrong place at the start. The team did not have the smoothest start to the season – perhaps he made such comments as a poet.
When problems arise, like in Baku, all we can do is find out the cause of what happened and change the process or put people in the right positions so that this doesn’t happen again.”
