Alpine seems like such a cluster. Missing the Cyril / Renault days

If that means Flavio is gone in a year I'll take it
I guess Renault didnโt want to keep Doohan. Well allow me to be the first to say: Fuck you back, Flavio. You shouldโve never returned.
My original wild prediction was that Hitech would take over Alpine F1 team in 2026 and Oakes puts Paul Aron in one seat and the other seat would've gone to the driver who did better this year, so probably Gasly. But I found it odd why they'd bring in Briatore if the team would go to Hitech. I guess I got my answer.
I have no idea what the plan is for Alpine now, except that Doohan is definitely getting kicked for Colapinto, Aron ain't getting a seat and Gasly has a lifeline until Briatore finds someone more southern to replace him. I liked my original prediction more but there is a positive here. At least I have a team to hate-watch because I'm definitely not going to cheer for that old codger.
This has to be the shortest tenure for a team principal, right?
I believe I read Bruno Famin had the record previously, so yeah you're probably right. Alpine on a roll.
Lol, don't know what to say
Turns out the dude is on the run so for once it's not entirely Briatore
