Alfa Romeo F1 Team ORLEN and Zhou Guanyu continue together for 2023

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

Alfa Romeo #f1 Team ORLEN will continue its journey with #zhouguanyu as the team extends its relationship with the Chinese driver for the 2023 season. During the course of a successful debut campaign, Zhou has demonstrated levels of maturity and racecraft that belie his young age, contributing to the development of the team as it makes its way to what is currently P6 in the Constructors’ Championship.

Having made history as the first driver from China to compete in Formula One, Zhou announced himself on the biggest stage in motorsport by scoring points on his debut at the Bahrain Grand Prix. He impressed the team with his commitment and his attitude, forming a strong partnership with team-mate, Valtteri Bottas, and displaying progress in his performances, both in qualifying and the race, round after round.

Among Zhou’s qualities, his hard-working approach has been instrumental in earning the admiration of everyone at #alfaromeof1teamorlen: a regular at the team’s HQ, Zhou has contributed to advancing the simulator programme and has left no stone unturned to extract the maximum potential from the team’s C42.

With a successful debut season under his belt and the experience that comes with it, #zhouguanyu will be aiming to make the next step in his progression.

Frédéric Vasseur, Team Principal: “I am looking forward to continuing working with Zhou. From day one with the team, at the Abu Dhabi test last year, he has impressed me with his approach to work and this is always a very positive trait. We knew he was quick, but the way he adapted to Formula One in such a short time has been one of the best surprises of our season. He is a very nice guy, everyone in the team likes both his personality and attitude. He has had the humility to ask questions and learn, from the engineers as well as Valtteri, and the intelligence to apply all the information he got to improve race after race. He will have this experience to draw on next season, and I am sure he will make another step forward as we continue to grow our team.”

Zhou Guanyu: “I am happy and grateful to #alfaromeof1teamorlen for the opportunity to be part of the team for another season. Making it to Formula One was a dream come true and the feeling of competing for the first time in a race will live with me forever: the team has been incredibly supportive, welcoming me from day one and helping me adapt to the most complex series in motorsport. There is more that I want to achieve in this sport and with the team, and the hard work we have put together since the start of the year is just the first step towards where we want to be next season. There is still a lot to learn, a lot to develop but I am confident in our work: I am looking forward to the next chapter of our story together.”

Jean Philippe Imparato, CEO Alfa Romeo: “Alfa Romeo is delighted to continue facing the challenges of #f1 into 2023 together with Guanyu Zhou, the first Chinese driver in Formula 1. We are all impressed by the commitment and approach of Guanyu. Beyond his positive results on track, he supports Alfa Romeo in affirming itself as a global premium brand. Guanyu Zhou has demonstrated a daring attitude, embodying one of the core values of our brand. Throughout the 2023 F1 season he will continue to assist the Brand in leveraging F1 awareness, especially in the Chinese market which plays a significant role in Alfa Romeo’s future.
