FOUR-times Formula One world champion Alain Prost accused Alpine of a lack of respect this week after it emerged he had left the Renault-owned team where he was non-executive director. The 66-yearold, the only Frenchman to win the title, joined the team in 2017 as an adviser. Media, including the official, reported that Alpine had not renewed Prost’s annual contract, although there was no official statement from the team, as part of management changes. Prost said on his Instagram page that he was “very disappointed” with how the news had come out. “It was agreed that we would announce together with @alpinef1team! No respect sorry!” he said. “I have refused the offer made to me in Abu Dhabi for the 2022 season because of a personal relationship and I was right! “To the Enstone and Viry team I will miss you.
