Franco Colapinto finished 18th at the Hungarian GP after a poor start and two pit stops exceeding seven seconds, calling the race “a disaster.” Alpine remains last in the 2025 Constructors’ Championship after another weekend of on-track and pit-lane errors. Pierre Gasly declared that Alpine is “too slow” following the team’s lackluster pace in Hungary. Manager Jamie Campbell-Walter and sponsor Marcos Galperín publicly criticized Alpine’s pit-stop performance on social media before deleting their posts. With wind-tunnel testing and CFD simulations off limits during the three-week pause, Colapinto plans focused simulator work and data analysis to prepare for the season’s second half.
