Esteban Ocon Blasts Alpine Team Decisions Amid Driver Swaps

In a shocking revelation, former Alpine driver Esteban Ocon has spoken out against the recent turmoil within the Alpine team. Ocon, who left Alpine last season for Haas, expressed his lack of surprise at the team’s decision to swap drivers, citing questionable moves made by the management.

The French driver’s departure paved the way for Jack Doohan to join Alpine, only to be swiftly replaced by Franco Colapinto. Ocon’s comments come amidst a wave of changes at Alpine, with key figures exiting the team and controversial decisions being made.

Ocon, speaking to the media, including PlanetF1.com, at Imola, stated, “Unfortunately, not really any surprise from some of the decisions that have been taken recently by the team.” He expressed sadness for Jack Doohan but acknowledged Franco Colapinto’s talent, emphasizing the competitive nature of Formula 1.

Amidst the reshuffling at Alpine, Flavio Briatore has taken on a more prominent role, further adding to the team’s instability. The sudden resignation of Oliver Oakes has also left a void within the management structure, with Dave Greenwood temporarily leading the team.

The drama at Alpine has not gone unnoticed, with Mick Doohan, Jack Doohan’s father, labeling the team as a “customer team,” expressing disappointment in the recent developments. Despite the turmoil, Alpine continues to navigate through the challenges as they work towards solidifying their position in the F1 grid.

As the dust settles at Alpine, the future remains uncertain, with fans and pundits eagerly awaiting the team’s next move. Stay tuned for more updates on this unfolding saga in the world of Formula 1.
