    Well the downfall of Alpine can be blamed solely on the shoulders of Famin, remember this team was still a podium finisher under Otmar, who was in charge of the engine before it was locked down in 22', Famin, his beyond the grid episode showed he was completely incompetent always blaming the previous management "engine was shit because the guys in charge in 14' fucked up" "the team sucks this year because the guy last year fucked up" the epitome of utter ineptitude, his name is such an accurate omen Famin ~ famine of success

Whether you think he’s a cheat or not, he knows how to run a team + he won’t tolerate corporate know nothings interfering. C. Getting an MB engine will both increase performance while saving tons of $ that can go into improving the team everywhere else.

    Hind sight is 20/20 however looking back:
    How right was RedBull (Christian Horner and Helmut Marko seeing through the Renault rhetoric) at the time publicly saying towards their once 4 time Championship partner that Renault was uncompetitive, the weak link, holding them back. The words of Christian Horner still echo "We've been paying to fly in First class, but ended up with an Economy ticket".
    How lucky was Oscar Piastri to have left Renault/Alpine for McLaren, where he would otherwise have been a back marker, unable to show his abilities at the front against more seasoned and experienced heavy weights and the possibility to have a dull short stint in F1. A lot to thank Mark Webber for and for Mark Webber's coaching in publicity, media, team politics etc.
    His post will go down in history being a huge entrance into an F1 seat. The axe to Alpine and the management shake up letting many go soon after the statement "I understand that, without my agreement, Alpine F1 have put out a press release late this afternoon that I am driving for them next year. This is wrong and I have not signed a contract with Alpine for 2023. I will not be driving for Alpine next year."
    How wrong were the Renault fans in the way they responded and treated Honda.
    How right were Honda knowing and believing they had the ability, made to suffer the humiliation of McLarens finger pointing at Honda claiming McLaren had the "best chassis on the grid" can rival RedBull. When McLaren did receive Renault engines the shock of not being anywhere near RedBull finally rang home and the blame finally went to where it should be and management shake up resulted with their Technical Director being sacked. Then the Frodo Gate scandal appeared with great staff unrest which essentially Vindicated Honda who went on to winning ways with RedBull.

    With all his mistakes, Cyril was a better team principal that anybody who came after him. In those years Renault performed as a team and was right behind Mercedes, Ferrari and Red Bull. I never understand the move from Renault to Alpine and the management structure, where there was a team principal but then you have three to five more bosses and advisors over him meddling with the team and changing team principals every season or even twice in mid season. In the end, if the team is sold nobody would missed them, we already miss the Renault years.

    The mistake was to have put English people to lead the technical team, 30 years that we have had the same team to manufacture the car, 30 years that we have the same distrust and the same sabotage. Everywhere where Renault has succeeded, Williams, Benneton then again Williams Renault from 2003 to 2006 and finally Redbull from 2009 to 2013 it was thanks to its engine. It is incomprehensible to keep a British chassis team that has not been able to produce a single good car in 30 years...
