Pierre Gasly: Our goal is to compete for points

      The Alpine team is in last place in the Constructors' Cup, but hopes to earn points in Miami, where Saturday's sprint weekend will take place.…

      Pierre Gasly: "I'm looking forward to returning to racing and the Miami Grand Prix this week. After crashing on the first lap in Jeddah due to the Tsunoda incident, I am determined to achieve a good result this weekend.

      Overall, it was a difficult series of three races in a row, but we showed a good pace, especially in Bahrain. Now we need to build on this success and start chasing some of our rivals.

      In Miami, we will have the second weekend of the season with a Saturday sprint, where we need to immediately join the fight. The track around the Hard Rock Stadium and the paddock at the NFL field is great, plus you can overtake on two long straights.

      Last year we were close to the points in both races. Our goal is to optimize the car's performance in hot conditions and compete for points in the sprint and Sunday's race."

      Jack Duane: "I'm excited to be heading to Miami for the second Saturday sprint weekend of the year. The series of three races in a row was difficult, but useful – we gathered a lot of information, understood a lot and improved compared to the beginning of the year. Now we need to develop this trend with each trip to the highway.

      Last week I was able to rest and recover, worked with the team at the base, and prepared for the stage in Miami on a simulator. This unique track is located at the NFL stadium, where fans create a special atmosphere. This is the first time I will drive through it as the main driver of a Formula 1 team. We will do everything to have a good sprint and Sunday's race, earning points."
