Points run continues as BWT Alpine F1 Team claim seventh in Melbourne

BWT Alpine F1 Team extended its promising start to the 2022 FIA Formula 1 World Championship season with a third consecutive points-scoring finish, courtesy of Esteban Ocon’s smooth run to seventh place in the Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne. Team-mate Fernando Alonso ended outside of the points in seventeenth.

Esteban has now scored points at every race so far this season and is seventh in the Drivers’ Championship with the team now in fifth in the Constructors’. Esteban enjoyed a solid and stable race, progressing from eighth on the grid to seventh at the chequered flag on a one-stop, Medium to Hard strategy, pitting on lap 17.

After a strong effort from the mechanics to prepare the #14 A522, Fernando opted for a reverse Hard to Medium plan, which looked promising at the midway point of the 58-lap race. However, an ill-timed Safety Car to clear an incident on lap 24, put the Spaniard on the backfoot and meant scoring any points would be a challenge. He pitted on lap 39 under the Virtual Safety Car, and with his Mediums degrading, he was forced to pit again on lap 53.

The team looks ahead to Imola in two weeks’ time looking to build on its strong start to the 2022 campaign.
