“We fought with Ferrari very often” – Alfa Romeo F1 boss Fred Vasseur is looking forward to the 2021 F1 season


"We were very often fighting with Ferrari" - Alfa Romeo F1 boss Fred Vasseur looking forward to the F1 2021 season

“We fought with Ferrari very often” – Alfa Romeo F1 boss Fred Vasseur spoke about the difficulties of the F1 2020 season and is looking forward to an admirable performance this season.

Alfa Romeo F1, or Sauber as we know it, had a disappointing 2020 by their standards. Only in the previous season Kimi Raikkonen and Antonio Giovinazzi scored 57 points, the highest in Alfa Romeo’s history.

After all, we laughed a lot

The Italian team finished 8th in both seasons, but the points balance fell dramatically this time; both drivers together to only get 8 points. Your F1 boss Fred Vasseur has taken note of this and has described the 2020 season as “survival mode”. He was asked about his future on the team and this is what he has to say:

“Yes, but we need to discuss the project and the future of the project. I can’t say I had a good year because it was tough and it was tough for everyone. We’ve been in survival mode more than anything, but I’m happy with the job done.

Alfa Romeo F1 has often competed with Ferrari

Alfa Romeo and Ferrari are both controlled by the Exor group, which also includes Juventus. Of course, Alfa Romeo has a motorsupport partnership with Ferrari, the greatest team in F1 of all time. But Ferrari’s outrageously horrific last decade in Formula 1 took it a step further after Alfa Romeo gave Ferrari stiff competition, especially in the second half. Vasseur has taken courage from this and is hoping for improved performances from the held duo Räikkönen and Giovinazzi.

“I think we’ve made a big step forward compared to two years ago. We also have to keep in mind that we’ve fought with Ferrari a lot and given the size of the team and the budget we have, I think it wasn’t that bad. “
