“Alpine for us means sport, competition, the application of Renault’s technological excellence, on the road we want to make it a brand that is only zero emissions, but always sporty.” 

“I like to look for the soul of a brand in the roots of its history to project it into the future. And Alpine has a lot of history and a future too,” concluded de Meo on the subject. 

Having said that, the team will be looking to improve upon their start as compared to last season. Wherein various mechanical technicalities led them to be slow. If it wasn’t for Ocon and Daniel Ricciardo, they would have gone deep down in the standings. Renault failed in their mission to secure third place in the Constructors’ standings. Therefore, de Meo will certainly expect this situation to change.
