Alpine to confirm its performance at the 6 Hours of Imola
Less than a month after its podium finish in Imola, the French team will have to keep up the pace to maintain its status as the third force in the field.
A circuit that had suited Alpine well. In 2024, Charles Milesi managed to place an A424 in hyperpole for the first time. The car was then in the middle of its learning phase. One year later, the Hypercar has evolved significantly and can now compete with the best. A situation that could benefit the French team.
After the podium achieved at the 6 Hours of Imola, Alpine will want to compete once more with the main forces of the championship. Top speed will be very important, while maintaining a minimum of aerodynamics for the second sector.
« After our podium at Imola, the whole team is obviously encouraged by this result, but we are keeping our feet on the ground: we know there is still a lot of work to be done to reach our goals. Spa represents a valuable opportunity to continue our momentum and perfect our execution. Its fast and demanding track will also allow us to assess the progress we’ve made in conditions similar to those we will encounter next month at Le Mans, summarizes Philippe Sinault, the team director.
Beyond the performance, it will be an opportunity for the Blues to fine-tune their settings and conduct a dress rehearsal for the 24 Hours of Le Mans. This work will also be carried out by all other teams. All the drivers and team members will strive to deliver a flawless performance after realizing the importance of every operational and strategic detail, announces Alpine.
