A season of missed opportunities for Alfa Romeo as they look to completely revamp their fortunes ahead of 2024.
The 2023 season was disappointing for Alfa Romeo, as they struggled to compete with their rivals and only managed to score points on four occasions. They introduced updates to their car, but it didn’t result in significant improvements. Valtteri Bottas expressed his desire for the team to improve, as he could see them falling behind. He had a better season compared to his teammate Zhou Guanyu, securing 10 points compared to Zhou’s 6 points. Bottas also outperformed Zhou in qualifying, beating him 16-6. The team signed James Key, a former McLaren man, to help with their technical team and they plan to completely review their car project during the winter to find solutions for their performance issues.
