Pierre Gasly, hunting more miracles with Alpine
The French spoke in the previous GP of Great Belgium about what he can expect for the second half of the tournament with a car that will not receive updates.
The situation is already known: Alpine will not update the A525 in the remainder of the 2025 Formula 1 calendar. Only the modification in the flat background presented in Barcelona appears in the limited list of changes that were made in the car and there were no more. The French team’s cannons point directly to 2026, season in which there will be a new regulation and David Sanchez, technical director of the team, decided to use 100% of the time and resources in the future. Meanwhile, the last one that marches in the Cup of Builders must retrace the second half of the current exercise with what it has and Pierre Gasly was clear about what they can wait until the year end.
“I do not hope that we are adding points constantly, because the car is the same as we had in Barcelona, and we know that, with the decision to focus on 2026, there will be no more added developments,” said the Frenchman, said Who arrived in Belgium, 13th date of the World Cup, after an almost magical sixth put in Silverstone, supported by rain. It is known, when the track gets wet, the technical differences are paired.
“We know that being consistently in the top ten in the race is not really attainable. But at certain times, such as Baréin, the car, for some reason, worked quite well in the tests, and also in the race. And then, When the conditions become a little more complicated, as in rain, that tends to match everyone a little more and we managed to go very well in those circumstances. So I think that will be quite representative of what we will see in the next 12 races, “he added.
With this panorama, and as Franco Colapinto, his partner said, maximizing opportunities is the great objective of Alpine pilots for the rest of the season. “We have to concentrate on getting the most out of what we have. Silverstone was a good example for the whole team: nobody expected us to leave that weekend with our best result of the year. With a little luck, we can get one or two more results like that until the end of the year, ”closed the Alpha Tauri and Red Bull expilot.
