Alpine F1 Team Principal Bruno Famin Reacts to Ocon-Gasly Collision at Monaco Grand Prix

Alpine F1 Team Principal Threatens Drastic Action After Monaco GP Collision

The Monaco Grand Prix took an unexpected turn for the Alpine F1 Team as drivers Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly collided on the opening lap, putting Ocon out of the race and sparking a wave of consequences.

Ocon attempted an ambitious move on Gasly at Portier, resulting in a collision that damaged Ocon’s car and forced him to retire. Gasly managed to continue and secure a 10th place finish, earning his first point of the season.

Team Principal Bruno Famin expressed his frustration with the incident, calling Ocon’s move “completely out of place” and hinting at “drastic action” in response. Famin’s exact words in French, ‘trancher dans le vif’, suggest a decisive response to prevent future incidents.

The team is considering various options, including financial penalties, team orders, or even a change in the driver lineup to avoid similar clashes in the future. Famin’s discussions with both drivers post-race indicate a serious approach to address the issue.

With a history of collisions between teammates, Ocon is under scrutiny for his role in the Monaco incident. Alpine is determined to take necessary steps to ensure team harmony and avoid compromising their competitive position.

As the team deliberates on the best course of action, all eyes are on Enstone to see how they will address the situation and prevent any repeat occurrences in the future.
