The impact of Bottas on Alfa Romeo not seen from the outside

Image
Alfa Romeo Team Representative Alessandro Alunni Bravi believes that Valtteri Bottas has had a strong influence on the team perhaps not seen from the outside. Bottas joined the squad at the start of 2022 after five years of racing alongside Lewis Hamilton at Mercedes. He went on to finish the season in 10th place with 49 points. Whilst the team have faced mixed fortunes so far in 2023, Alunni Bravi expects Bottas to stay in F1 for some time in order to challenge for podiums and wins again. "I think he wants to stay in Formula 1 ," Alunni Bravi told media, including TheFOXposts.Com . "He wants to come back to fight for podiums, for wins. This is the ambition for every driver, of course, but he wants to be [fighting at the front]." Viewed by others: Valtteri Bottas Bottas reviews Alfa Romeo F1 picture...

Horner 'didn't recognise' Ricciardo: He picked up 'habits' at other teams

Christian Horner believes that Daniel Ricciardo is showing signs of returning to the calibre of Formula 1 driver that had left Red Bull in 2018. Following his departure from McLaren at the end of last season, Ricciardo elected to take on a 'third driver' role at Red Bull in order to take a break from racing. It's the first F1 season without Ricciardo in eleven years, and the popular Australian is has been tackling simulator work and promotional activities for the team so far this year. When asked about Ricciardo's progress since joining the team, Red Bull Team Principal Christian Horner said that the driver they "didn't recognise " was now returning to form, and is now "desperate" to jump back in the car.
