On Thursday, Alpine announced the appointment of David Sanchez as the team’s Chief Technical Officer. Esteban Ocon expects that this appointment will lead to strengthening the team in the foreseeable future.
Esteban Ocon: “We are strengthening our technical team, which is great. David has extensive experience, which he has gained in various teams. He also started his career at Enstone and I hope he will help us with the further development of the car.”
Commenting on Alpine’s chances in Miami, Esteban said: “We are constantly working to improve the car’s speed, and I hope to get even closer to the top ten this weekend. In China, new products have allowed us to battle with rivals in tenth place, and these are the main results of the last stage.
Overall, we obviously have to make the car even faster. We have not yet been able to earn any points, even in a situation where faster competitors do not reach the finish line. We have to keep working – we’ll see how close we get to the points with the sprint this weekend.
We hope we can maximize the car’s potential. I have the feeling that we have already succeeded in this in various phases this year. It doesn’t matter how fast the car is; It’s important that when you step out of the cockpit at the finish, you feel like you’ve done everything you could. If we manage to get the most out of the car in Miami, I will be happy. We will see what results this will lead to.”
