On Monday, the Aston Martin team announced the signing of Fernando Alonso, causing a sensation. Alpine boss Otmar Szafnauer believes his team will outperform Silverstone rivals even without the Spanish driver next season.
Otmar Szafnauer: “I know both teams very well, having worked for Aston Martin for 12 years. I know that team even better than Alpine. I left them in December – they’ve been hiring new employees since then, but I’ve also been part of this process. I was particularly involved in the invitation of Dan Fallows and Eric Blandin from Mercedes, so I am well aware of their plans.
Both teams have a lot of potential, but here and now Alpine is performing at a higher level. It is difficult to predict the distant future, but in the short term our team will continue to perform at the current level or even higher. I am sure we will outperform the team Fernando has moved to for the whole time he will be in it.
