Otmar Szafnauer praised Alpin for his progress during the 2022 Formula 1 season.


The French team ended the year in fourth place, losing only to the top three teams - Red Bull, Ferrari and Mercedes. At the same time, the start of the season was difficult - Alpin experienced problems in the first races and until June was in sixth position.


We need to look at how we compare to others in terms of the speed of updates, the speed of progress - I don`t know. But I think we are one of the best, if you look at where we were at the beginning of the season and at the end. Maybe Mercedes is around too.


On the first tests, we encountered difficulties for a number of reasons, mainly due to the fact that we bet on speed. This meant that, firstly, we risk the reliability of the motors - but it can be fixed. Secondly, we had to make more iterations in order to prepare updates to improve the efficiency of the chassis, and we were under pressure. If something went wrong in production, it was quite critical.


So we had problems at the beginning of the year. But then we accumulated a sufficient number of details, began to understand the car, and updates began, - said the head of Alpin.
