Alpine team principal Otmar Szafnauer wishes Oscar Piastri 'had a bit more integrity' as contract dispute persists
Alpine team principal Otmar Szafnauer claims he wishes Oscar Piastri «had a bit more integrity» as their dispute rumbled on. The French team had hoped to bring Piastri, their reserve driver, into their line-up for the 2023 season after Fernando Alonso unexpectedly decided to leave the team for Aston Martin after he replaced Sebastian Vettel. Ad Alpine went as far as announcing Piastri’s promotion only for the Australian to deny any agreement, as he had signed up to race for McLaren given Daniel Ricciardo’s exit.
