IF Bottas goes to Alpine I sincerely hope what will likely be a lackluster performance at best (bc of the car) does not hurt his chances with Cadillac. Really want to see him land there.

If this happens Valtteri Bottas sympathy corner will definitely need to make a reappearance

Briatore’s goal seems to be getting a few more points to get a better sale price for the team.

Oooh, snazzy dice graphics

I love the last line 😂

The instability behind the scenes at Alpine is so intense that I wonder if this isn't more valuable to Bottas as a bargaining chip to hurry along a Cadillac deal.

Flavio is a joke. Full stop. He should not even be allowed near the paddock. Hell ban him from even having an F1 TV subscription.
