All language subtitles for Formula 1 Drive To Survive - 6x07

Very nice to meet you. How are you doing?

- Good. How are you? - Very good.

It's the most exciting sport. It's crazy how fast it's growing.

- It is. - It's also the...

The documentary has been a gateway for so many people.

You've seen it?

- Every single episode. - Okay.

My kids always laugh because they go,

"Dad, you say you wanna relax. All I hear is..."

Oh no. There's a new season coming. Where are they?

- You are gonna be in the Netflix series. - Hi!

- Finally! - Finally.

Someone else's documentary.

Hollywood actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney

are joining an investor group

taking a 24% equity stake in Alpine Racing.

Let's just take a picture with Cosmopolitan magazine.

Oh wow.

Do you want my good side or my really good side?

Any level of significant investment into your team

is so extraordinarily welcome.

But of course they're not just doing that for the love of the sport.

They're not only doing it for the love of your team.

They are doing it because they want a significant return on their investment.

And that brings so much pressure

on a Formula 1 team principal

to perform immediately.

What was your reaction when you heard that you were gonna have

some Hollywood stars involved?

Well, I know more about the car and performance than I do Hollywood stars,

but they're a welcome addition.

Those investors have come in,

so it's important to hit the targets that we set.

- There we go. - Oh yeah!

But, uh, our season so far has been disappointing.

Esteban Ocon has been retired from the race.

When we make the same mistakes twice, that is not acceptable.

Pierre Gasly coming home in 19th.

I mean, seriously, could it get much worse?

There is a state of mind which is not up to

the level of what has been done in the past by the same team.

There's contact!

- Agh, fuck! - What the fuck?

Both Alpines are out.

We are concerned and focused.

I can sense the pressure.

If we're underperforming, it's not good enough.

I have to do better.

The buck will stop with me.

Hope you enjoy the sub/show

Hey, Tony. We just arrived and we got my ticket.

And we're waiting for you. I can't wait, to be honest. I'm excited!

- So nice to see you! - Hey, how are you?

- It's good to see you. Yes, I'm great. - I'm trying to remember the last time...

Yeah, that's crazy. When was the last time we met?

I think it was in Miami when I came to see you.

That was just a quick visit.

How is your season going?

The season? Well, there's some good and some less good.

This clearly hasn't been the start that we would have liked.

I think, objectively, we haven't been competitive enough.

The target is fourth.

And, at the moment, it doesn't look like we're gonna be able to achieve it.

For my career, I need things to be better right now.

Is that possible?

Something is not clicking somewhere.

Clearly, the communication hasn't been to the best level.

And, um, I think it's something very important, as a team principal,

is to understand what your drivers actually need.

Let's go, guys.

So, uh, now need to do the work and... and deliver.

How are things in the team?

I'm just in the middle.

How do you stay focused, Esteban? It must be hard.

Well, it's... it's... There are always things going on in the team.

I'm just focused on my role.

It's important to work well, you know, inside the team.

To be... To have a close relationship, in a way.

To... To talk about the things that are important.

At the moment, we are not... doing that.

No one is happy inside the team.

I think Otmar needs to find out some solutions.

It's about halfway through the season,

and Otmar has two drivers who are not happy.

He needs to turn this season around.

Welcome to Silverstone.

Wherever you're watching in the world, the very best of British for you.

Bollocks.

Daniel! Daniel! Daniel!

Otmar, which of your drivers do you prefer?

The one I prefer, and it changes,

is always the quicker one.

You know what I mean?

We're aiming for fourth place, but we're fifth.

A long way off in terms of performance and points.

That isn't what we were hoping for.

We have to correct the situation as soon as possible.

Gentlemen. Good, thank you.

In Formula 1,

transforming a team to be a, uh, championship contender takes time.

Where's our hospitality?

Yeah, just keep going.

Success in our game doesn't happen overnight.

You have to put the building blocks in place

to be able to have that success.

It takes time.

Well, it's race day, and what a special race day it is too.

It's the British Grand Prix.

Let's get together.

Are you breakfast, or lunch, or...?

- I'm all of the above. - Red wine?

All the above.

- Good luck today. - Okay, thank you.

Are they footballers?

Uh, no, Selling Sunset or some shit like that.

We are ready to go racing.

- Pierre, radio check. - Yeah, all good.

Pierre Gasly starts in tenth place.

I know what's required to perform.

I need to be on top of my game for everything.

Esteban Ocon disappointed to start 13th,

but a good chance to get in the points.

A difficult start.

But I know I have to perform.

I need to make it count.

Full focus. Make sure we get some good points.

Let's go, boys. Be sharp and we'll get them.

We are ready to go racing.

And the grand prix is go!

Lando Norris leads the British Grand Prix!

You can hear the roars!

That's Hamilton. Goes very, very wide.

Gasly making up places.

Hamilton 0.5 behind.

Doing a good job.

- I'm feeling good on these tires. - Yeah, copy that.

Good start. Currently running P11.

Next car, Stroll.

- Copy. - Okay, let's push.

I have a problem, guys.

For fuck's sake.

Box the car, please. Box, box, box. Box, box, box.

Okay, what's wrong?

We're concerned it's not gonna last more than another lap.

Esteban, we are retiring the car.

Switch off, please. Switch off. And be ready to jump out, please, as well.

I'm very sorry.

So, for info, Esteban is out of the race.

What's our position?

Uh, P6.

Piastri one second behind.

Yeah, he's got fucking DRS! So we've got to react now.

Here comes Oscar Piastri on Pierre Gasly.

We are losing a lot of time on the straight.

Understood. We're on it.

Boxing this lap, boxing this lap.

Gasly into the pits. It will drop him down to P11.

Alpine need to salvage some points from the race.

P11 at the moment.

All we got.

Behind, you've got Stroll.

Copy.

Stroll going around the outside of Gasly.

Stroll moves up into 11th place.

He was off the track.

He needs to give me back that fucking position now!

Yeah, we're on it, mate. Stay calm.

I am in that mindset, "Okay, I need to fight."

Eight laps to go.

- Let's get him, mate. - Push, push, push!

Round the outside there goes Pierre Gasly.

Beautiful, mate.

Gasly up to 11th.

So Sainz, one second.

Overtake available.

Copy.

Gasly's now on the tail of Carlos Sainz!

Around the outside once more.

And Gasly takes tenth place.

Carlos Sainz tries to get back that place.

And does so.

Gotta be fucking kidding me.

We need more straight-line speed if we want to fight.

I passed the guy, then he's passing me like a joke on the straight.

How many laps to go?

Eight. Eight laps to go.

Stroll 0.3 behind.

I need more power!

That fucker didn't give me enough space!

That's it. Stroll broke the suspension.

It is a double DNF

for Alpine here at Silverstone.

Ah, sorry, mate.

Can't believe this.

Keep your heads up.

Thank you very much for the hard work.

These weekends happen every once in a while.

So don't worry. Let's move forward.

You know, if something could go wrong, it did.

And it happened in a weekend where you're really punished.

So just... don't worry about it.

Keep doing a good job.

Don't let it get you down.

And that's all I wanted to say.

Thanks again.

Yeah, thanks again.

All right. Thank you, guys.

It's a real disappointment.

We shouldn't be trying to find excuses,

and we simply need to work harder

to correct things and improve quickly.

So for the Alpine board,

poor performance cannot all be down to bad luck.

It's normally because things are going wrong in your team.

Otherwise, you would say, the guys who are winning everything,

all of that success is down to good luck.

I'm not a rookie anymore.

I have some experience under my belt, and I just want results.

Clearly hasn't been the season that we had hoped for at the start of the year.

Every team manager is under pressure.

It's a sport where you gotta deliver.

So here we go, then,

for the 38th World Championship Hungarian Grand Prix.

After Alpine's double DNF in Silverstone,

they can't afford to not get big points today

in their battle with McLaren for fourth in the Constructors.

You know, nobody wants to have a DNF,

but if you looked at the positive side,

uh, the... the performance, the race pace was actually pretty good.

So there... there were some... some, uh, positives.

But overall, not scoring points is a negative

that, uh, needed to be fixed.

- Radio check? - Yes, radio check.

Let's stay focused and try to get in the points.

It's lights out, away we go.

Racing, then, towards the first corner!

And there's contact!

Fuck!

- He's fucked it up. - That's it.

Fuck's sake. I got massively hit, guys.

I don't understand.

Too much damage.

Esteban, this is gonna be terminal, please. We're retiring.

And that's a second double "did not finish" in a row for Alpine.

Disaster for Otmar.

Every weekend, things happen, and you learn from 'em, and you move on.

But, uh, you have to focus on the things that, uh, you're in control of.

You're only as good as your last race.

It's all about results.

The two double DNFs in a row

took a huge number of points off the board.

And the team's really struggling.

The buck always has to stop somewhere.

Nobody wants to, uh, have a DNF.

We've truly been unlucky this year.

To have a, uh, a result slip away

due to circumstances out of your control...

Yeah, I don't worry about those things.

I don't like to bring luck into things.

Bad luck goes hand in hand with not being good enough.

Starting from the middle of the grid,

you're more at risk of being involved in collisions on the first corners.

We're trying to fight for what few points we can,

and two double DNFs is extremely frustrating.

The pressure is, of course, on Otmar because he is the team principal.

To have two race weekends in a row

where neither of your cars finish,

I mean, that's almost unheard of in Formula 1.

Allez.

Everyone has suffered.

Everyone in the garage, the office, the drivers.

It's how we can... combat that.

If times don't change,

we're gonna be facing the same thing, aren't we?

It has been a focus point for us and a sort of request and requirement

to try and improve over the course of the last few months.

When you do worse than your competitors,

it's extremely frustrating.

We need to help the team progress.

We know we have to change something.

Welcome to Spa-Francorchamps.

It's the Belgian Grand Prix.

With unpredictable weather conditions,

it's one of the most unforgiving places on the race calendar.

Breaking news here in the paddock at the Belgian Grand Prix,

and it involves the Alpine F1 team.

And we are waiting for an official announcement

from Alpine.

I don't know what the fuck's going on. Very strange.

Never a dull moment.

- I know. - Crazy.

What a fucking...

What a shitshow, huh?

I called you.

I know, I know. I saw, but I couldn't talk.

I was in a precarious position.

Sorry to hear how that's played out.

Yeah, don't worry. Not to worry.

- You okay? - Um...

This was very sudden,

so I... I don't have a plan B, so to speak.

- Otmar. - Boys.

No way.

You know that was never a mutual agreement.

But I'm sorry to see you go.

- It won't be forever. - No, I know.

In some respects, it seems like a bit of a shit show at the moment.

You're probably better off out of it.

It's highly unusual to do this.

I'm not sure that I could ever recall a time in Formula 1

where a team principal has been dismissed

halfway through a race weekend.

That's where it is.

Yeah.

I tried. I mean, last year, we were fourth.

Yeah, yeah, exactly. It's, like...

Not all of it, but a bit of that was because of me.

When we realized we were very far from our performance goals,

we talked with Otmar and the top management,

and we realized we weren't on the same page

about the way we had to change things.

So we agreed it was better to go our separate ways.

Otmar!

- Good luck. - I will need it.

No, no, I'm sure you'll be fine.

All the best.

Yeah, thank you. We'll see.

That's life.

Good luck.

Alpine could have been much more honest and transparent.

Sometimes, you take two steps forward, one step backwards

before you get to where you're going.

Who's with Bruno? Christian Horner?

Alunni Bravi, Christian Horner, and Mike Krack.

- I know Mike. - Alunni Bravi, he speaks French?

Yes, yes, he speaks very good French.

Christian...

Christian, I have more doubts about.

- Bonjour. - Bonjour.

How are you?

Still alive.

Hello.

- Hi. Morning. - Very good.

So, the new boss, huh?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah. Okay.

It's a punchy decision.

But Alpine is a mystery in many respects

in terms of how that team runs and operates.

I mean, let's see how that works out.

- Bruno. - Has he offered it to you?

With Bruno coming in, everyone wants to see how the new guy operates.

You're coming in halfway through a year,

and, by the way, you've never run a Formula 1 team before.

Not easy.

That's a really difficult gig to take on.

And that team is gonna be on its knees right now.

One of Bruno's first focuses

will have to be how does he improve that morale?

He's not gonna get a morale boost from performance on the racetrack.

It's gonna have to be done in another way.

Okay, let's go.

- After you. - Thank you.

- Good morning. - Morning.

- Good morning. - How are you?

Okay. So far.

My goal is to change the dynamic and morale of the team.

My leadership, the way I do things,

is I want to be close to the people.

Close to the team, and to stay in contact.

I need everyone to follow me on this project

so we can perform as good as possible.

So, um, good afternoon, everyone.

Happy to be here.

Um, we are not making one step backward.

We are making a step forward. We are pushing.

We have a lot of talented and motivated people here,

and we need to design the best car

and to race it in the best way.

Together, we work and we race as one.

But I am super optimistic.

Working all together,

being always better,

uh, never satisfied,

and fighting like hell

for improving our results.

Thank you.

Okay. Allez.

The situation between Esteban and Pierre,

I realized that I had to do something.

Bonjour.

We talked.

In talking about it quickly between the three of us,

it allowed us to clear things up and move on.

And there aren't going to be any problems between them anymore.

And that gives us a very positive dynamic.

Bruno Famin has a massive job on his hands.

Messieurs.

The longer you go without scoring points in Formula 1,

the... the more the pressure's gonna ramp up on you, on the team.

He needs to turn around what's been a very difficult season.

There are a lot of people in an F1 team,

but you have to know everybody,

and know their needs, what their job is, and what it entails.

What are their difficulties and how can you help them?

Make sure that everyone has what they need in order to work well together.

We have a plan, and will execute it and move forward.

But we know that the following races will be difficult.

Zandvoort is a sea of color today

for the Dutch Grand Prix.

But for the majority, it's all about one man.

But eyes will also be on the new Alpine team principal,

Bruno Famin,

who will be hoping to score some much-needed points

at one of the trickiest circuits on the calendar.

I must say, this place is crazy.

I've never seen that much orange.

I'm so excited.

Yeah, no problem. No problem. Ciao.

Bruno came with very good intentions

and a very good mindset

and brought some fresh ideas into the team.

We have a common, uh, target with the team,

and... and we're both working really well.

I wanna win, so let's just fucking do it, you know?

- Ready? - Uh-huh.

'Ave it.

Let's get this one done, shall we?

Where do you think we'll finish?

Where do you think we'll finish?

I've always enjoyed leading teams. It's something I do well.

Project Alpine is a huge responsibility,

so the pressure is there.

But I have faith

in the ability of all the people from Alpine

to outdo themselves

and give their all to improving the team in the long run.

I'm going into the race

knowing I wanna get the best result I can for the team.

My ambition is clear.

To bring Alpine to the top and become world champion one day.

Ocon starts in 16th.

- Ready for radio check? - Good radio.

Gasly in 12th.

Last car is on the grid.

Good start from Gasly,

up a place already after overtaking a Williams.

Nice work, mate.

Lots of rain starting.

What was dry is now heavy rain and a very wet track.

It looks like a lot of teams are holding their nerve

and keeping their cars out on track.

Box! Box, box, box, box.

- Box, box. - Copy.

Tires to inters.

Pierre Gasly coming into the pit.

They've decided to take the gamble.

- Okay, head down, mate. - Copy.

Gasly comes out of the pits in 16th place.

Overtake available.

Keep pushing, mate. You're making places.

Good job.

With wet-weather tires, Gasly is flying.

He's up into fifth place.

Alpine's gamble is working.

Okay, mate. So P4.

- That's what I like! - Nice work, mate.

And how's the track?

- Pretty dry. - Copy.

Okay, Esteban, keep your pace up.

Esteban Ocon currently running in tenth place,

just inside the points.

DRS enabled.

Yuki and Ocon wheel to wheel in the battle for ninth!

- Okay, let's keep going. - Copy.

Can Ocon stay in the top ten

and secure precious points for Alpine?

Here comes the rain again!

- This rain could get very heavy. - What's our current position?

Currently, we are P4.

Pérez P3.

Okay, Checo, we have a five-second penalty for speeding in the pit lane.

Fuck!

Yes!

All right, mate, so Pérez has a five-second penalty.

Six laps. Stay within five seconds if you can.

If Gasly can finish the race within five seconds

of Pérez's rapid Red Bull, he'll be on the podium.

Could be good news

in Bruno Famin's first race as a team boss.

It's been a tough season,

but I have extreme motivation and this will and desire.

At this moment, there is a lot at stake.

I know there is a chance at the podium.

And I wanna deliver.

Full focus.

Gap to Gasly 2.6.

Time to gain turn one and two compared to Pérez.

Just give me the gap.

3.1 seconds.

Pérez is starting to pull away.

Last lap. He was a bit quicker than us in sector one.

Gasly across the line!

P3, baby. P3!

Let's go!

Let's fucking go!

Woo-hoo-hoo!

Amazing, man! Amazing!

What a race! What a race!

That is the checkered flag. P10.

Double points for Alpine.

Pierre third, so he got a podium.

Oh, guys!

Yes!

Fuck yes! That's what I like, baby!

You guys can be proud. Very well executed.

Awesome job. Awesome job.

Thank you.

Come on!

Everything was great, so...

Really stoked.

Really, really good car, so...

Very happy for all of you guys.

Yeah, boy!

Pierre Gasly. Well done to him.

This podium is the result and the reward from all the hard work,

um, that we... we've been putting in with the team.

We just stayed ice-cold the whole race and managed to get that P3,

so that was incredible.

We all celebrated, like you should, you know, after the race,

so I think the morale is... is really good.

Yeah, man. Congrats.

Are you happy with the trophy?

It feels good. It's a piece of plastic, but...

Is it microwaveable?

Yeah, it can be a big glass at home.

So the priority was clearly to change the team's mindset.

And now, it is together that we will succeed

in increasing our results,

progressing, and achieving victories.

Ferrari wanted a new direction, and Fred represents that.

Sainz locks up! They avoid contact.

Watching your two drivers battle on the track,

the TP needs to tell their drivers, "Dial it down a bit."

Fuck! My hand.

There is no way that you come back from that injury quickly.

And they've got to plug the gap.

I'm Liam Lawson, and I'm an AlphaTauri reserve.

Liam Lawson for his first ever Qualifying!

What does this mean for me?
