1:02
One drivers live life at
1:04
high speed. They're used to
1:06
things happening quickly. They're impatient
1:09
to win. Sometimes I wish I
1:11
could like fast forward to see
1:13
how we're going to be like
1:15
in a couple of months time.
1:17
But I do have a lot
1:20
of belief that we'll see alpine
1:22
competing for much better position in
1:24
a short term. The mentality and
1:26
the mindset is what's most important
1:29
for me. just seeing the desire
1:31
and the belief of my team
1:33
that we can actually do it.
1:35
Pierre Gazley is full of belief
1:37
as he embarks on his third
1:40
season with Alpine. He believes in
1:42
the team and he believes in
1:44
his own ability. He even believes
1:46
that this will be the year
1:48
in which he takes his second
1:50
F1 victory. I'm Tom Clarkson and
1:52
here on F1 Beyond the grid.
1:55
I asked Pierre why he feels
1:57
that way. After all, Alpine are
1:59
not yet a front-running team. But
2:01
Pierre has faith that they will
2:03
get better soon. And he believes
2:05
that when the unexpected happens and
2:07
a chance for a midfield driver
2:10
to win a race comes up,
2:12
he will be the one to
2:14
take it. After all, he's done
2:16
it before. And speaking of winning,
2:18
keep listening for a chance to
2:20
win tickets to this year's Miami
2:22
Grand Prix, thanks to F1 Enlocked.
2:25
A huge prize right here on
2:27
F1 Beyond beyond the F1 Beyond.
2:29
Now, as you're about to find
2:31
out, Pierre is in really good
2:33
form. It was a pleasure to
2:35
talk to him about his rivals,
2:37
his teammate, his new bosses, and
2:40
his status as team leading. Pierre,
2:42
bonjo, how are you? Bonjo, very
2:44
good, very good. Yeah, very happy
2:46
to be here. It's been a
2:48
while, actually. Two years, two years.
2:50
Two years, sir. You're looking fit,
2:52
well, how was your winter? Very
2:54
good, I must say it's... It
2:56
was good to have a bit
2:58
of time off with the family
3:00
because the family is obviously
3:02
growing. Thankfully, you know, year
3:04
after year, more nieces, nephews,
3:06
everybody is healthy and great
3:08
to spend some time back
3:11
home with them. And yeah,
3:13
I must say I'm just
3:15
very excited to get another
3:17
season going, get back racing
3:19
and go out there, wheels to wheel
3:21
and try to look for my second
3:23
race win in Formula One.
3:26
Physically, are you in better shape
3:28
as a result of training over the
3:30
winter? Over the last few years,
3:32
I've been pretty pleased in the
3:35
sort of development and evolution
3:37
is something I try to
3:39
put a lot of efforts, because
3:41
it helps me physically, but
3:43
also mentally in my daily
3:45
life, just feeling sharp, feeling
3:47
strong, putting the efforts in the
3:49
gym. It's something I actually like,
3:51
you know, like pushing yourself. So
3:54
now physically very strong, try to
3:56
set up some sort of
3:58
like personal targets. you know
4:00
with some running some exercises I
4:02
want to I want to achieve
4:05
etc but generally speaking I think
4:07
it's yeah probably the fittest I've
4:09
ever been talk to me about
4:11
running are you running the tracks
4:13
what distances are you doing are
4:15
you sprinting are you endurance so I
4:18
don't do like crazy distance of
4:20
Martin not yet I'm waiting a
4:22
few years before probably after after
4:25
F1 but yeah I'll do anything
4:27
from I like my you know
4:29
5k running because just printing and
4:32
can you reveal your fastest time
4:34
your PB? Sub 17 I want
4:36
to I want to get it to
4:39
I think now I've put in my
4:41
mind so in the next two months
4:43
I'll give it a shot again but
4:45
I like to get it to 1630
4:48
ish. Do you mind if I don't
4:50
reveal that? But to be
4:52
fair idea, it's not something
4:54
you need in the car,
4:56
but it's just this stuff
4:58
that when I put something
5:00
in my mind, it's like
5:02
almost I gotta tick the box,
5:04
you know, so it's like I
5:06
push myself, it's 5K, it doesn't
5:09
feel great because you're just on
5:11
age from start to finish, but...
5:13
I quite like to go through
5:15
that pain and when you get
5:17
that satisfaction at the end that,
5:19
okay, you've done it and you
5:21
actually get the rewards. I do,
5:23
yeah, 5K, but then, yeah, I'll
5:25
run up to 20, 22, 23,
5:27
sometimes for like longer recovery runs.
5:29
At the end of the day,
5:31
I just want to be one
5:33
of the fittest on the grade
5:35
and put that physical part away where
5:38
I know I'm way fit enough for
5:40
the entire season. So I think
5:42
fitness is currency. in formal one,
5:44
isn't it? I think people do
5:47
value a driver's fitness and I'm
5:49
talking about team principles. Yeah,
5:51
I think it's, we are athletes
5:53
and it's part of the performance,
5:55
you know, you'll have races
5:58
where things feel pretty easy. You
6:00
got long straits to recover,
6:02
temperatures not too high, body
6:04
temperature is quite cool. But
6:07
in January I'm thinking, okay, what
6:09
are the two, three races which are
6:11
going to be the most challenging
6:14
physically? And those ones, I don't
6:16
want to be just about fit
6:18
enough for these races. I want to
6:20
have the buffer that I'll be easy.
6:23
So you look at Singapore, you look
6:25
at back in the Malaysia, it was
6:27
very tough. You look at Qatar. and
6:29
the work I do in January it's
6:32
already having those races in mind knowing
6:34
that through the year you're not going
6:36
to be able to keep up that
6:38
intensity of training so you need to
6:40
have a big buffer in February and
6:43
sort of like you know your physical
6:45
capacity decreased through the year but whenever
6:47
you get to that Qatar race in
6:49
November still want to have that buffer. When
6:51
I get there mentally also I know I
6:54
have an edge on the others because I
6:56
know the ones that don't work out as
6:58
much will struggle more so potentially
7:00
the last 10 laps, you
7:02
know, when it starts to
7:04
get a bit harder, then
7:06
mentally it makes a difference.
7:08
Did you get to go
7:10
to Flavio's place in Africa,
7:12
because I remember in the
7:14
2000s, Alonzo and Fisicella and
7:16
truly, they all used to
7:19
go to Kenya on a
7:21
Kenya, to Flavio's place yet,
7:23
but you know, we're getting
7:25
to know each other. weeks
7:27
after weeks and months after
7:29
months I must say we're
7:31
having a very good relationship,
7:33
very honest, he's very supportive,
7:35
understanding my career, where I
7:38
come from, the sort of different
7:40
challenges I've had and my
7:42
ambition in Formula One and
7:44
the targets I said to
7:46
myself so I must say
7:48
we have very open conversations
7:50
about that and it's been really
7:53
on it and very supportive.
7:55
Doesn't mean I got an invite to
7:57
Kenya yet. I'm sure it will happen, but
7:59
we win. touch consistently and a
8:01
very common vision. And a
8:04
very common vision on where we
8:06
want to bring the team. Obviously
8:08
it's got way more experience than
8:10
I have. It's seen the team
8:13
through different shapes. It's brought the
8:15
team to the top of Formula
8:17
One. But at the end, in
8:19
terms of mentality, mindset and what
8:22
we want from our people, I
8:24
think we are in a very
8:26
similar ground and very similar vision.
8:29
He's a very interesting mix,
8:31
Flavio isn't he? He's ruthless,
8:33
he's charming, he's funny, he's all
8:35
of these things, but for a guy who
8:37
has never raced, and when he arrived
8:40
in Formula One in the late
8:42
80s, profess to know nothing about
8:44
Formula One, he does have an
8:46
amazing capacity to deal with
8:48
racing drivers in that, okay,
8:51
he's managed Alonzo forever, he
8:53
was truly his manager, Physicalers
8:55
manager, Mark Weber's manager for
8:57
15 years. He does understand the
9:00
way you guys think, doesn't
9:02
he? It does, but I will
9:04
say, because he's got that quality
9:06
of being interested and being
9:09
curious about it. So he'll
9:11
talk and he'll ask questions to
9:13
kind of get a read and kind
9:16
of scan, okay, like in what
9:18
space are you and what ed
9:20
space are you in? I've been
9:22
quite impressed in how much he
9:24
knows but then I realize just
9:26
you know hanging out with him
9:28
and spending more time with him
9:30
that he's actually curious about many
9:32
many different topics and that's that's
9:35
how he has so much knowledge
9:37
about you know various subjects so
9:39
yeah he does understand racing drivers
9:41
he does understand the competitiveness
9:44
you know I'm obsessed with winning and
9:46
trying to be the best and really
9:48
trying to perfect whatever I
9:50
do related to formula one and
9:53
in that sense he's the same
9:55
he doesn't accept anything
9:57
below perfection and Yeah, I
9:59
mean And that's why I really
10:01
enjoy the talks we have. And I
10:03
think there is a great understanding. There
10:06
is a lot of transparency, which I
10:08
love, you know, Flyview is a very
10:10
straightforward and direct person. And yeah, it's
10:13
matching very well. Do you speak to
10:15
him in English, Italian, French?
10:18
Mainly Italian. But then when
10:20
my vocabulary comes short, then I
10:22
switch to English. But yeah, mainly
10:24
Italian. How do you see his
10:27
relationship with Olloakes, the team
10:29
principal? What do you see
10:31
as Flavio business? And what
10:33
do you see as Ollie
10:35
business? It's a good question.
10:38
I mean at the end of the
10:40
day Flavio has got
10:42
that overview of the entire
10:44
team. He's got that leadership
10:46
and kind of giving
10:49
big directions where Ollie
10:51
is probably slightly closer
10:54
to the people from the fact
10:56
is on the sort of...
10:59
executive on a daily basis.
11:01
So I think they're very close,
11:03
you know, obviously they are together
11:05
from morning to night. All he's
11:07
at the factory every day. Flavio
11:09
actually comes every week and spends quite
11:12
a bit of time there. But I
11:14
think they're teaming up really well. Flavio,
11:16
you know, when he came in, I
11:19
didn't know how much he was going
11:21
to be involved because, no, he's done
11:23
so much in his life. A new
11:25
cool thing, okay, he actually doesn't need.
11:27
at this stage of his life to
11:30
put that much effort and that much
11:32
time because he's successful, he's won in
11:34
Formula One, he's done so many great
11:36
stuff, he could just lay back, you
11:39
know, lay down on the beach, back
11:41
in Kenya or south of France and
11:43
just chill, but at the end of
11:45
the day he really took it
11:47
personal and his commitment, not going
11:50
to lie and dedication is way
11:52
above what I imagine and in
11:54
a positive way. So he's really
11:56
trying hard and really trying his
11:58
best to turn the team around.
12:00
Usually, only is a true racer. All
12:02
is probably less of this
12:04
glamour side than what we know
12:07
from Flavio, but is a proper
12:09
true racer that wants to build
12:11
the best and strongest racing team.
12:13
And it's a great mix, yeah.
12:16
I went for a run along
12:18
the Yarra River in Melbourne
12:20
on the Monday after the Australian
12:22
Grand Prix, and I bumped into
12:25
those two, just strolling along. Flavio
12:27
asking me why I was going
12:29
for a run. But yeah, they
12:32
seem to get on well. They
12:34
obviously bounce ideas off each other,
12:36
don't they? Some people think Flavio
12:39
is a helmet Marco type figure
12:41
in that he's so ruthless. As
12:43
you say, he wants results, he
12:46
wants to win. Do you see that
12:48
side of him? He's a
12:50
competitive person. And when you're
12:52
a competitive person, as I
12:54
say, you don't settle for...
12:56
anything less than perfection
12:59
and you know you want the IS
13:01
quality on any areas
13:03
whether it's IRA, whether it's
13:05
engine, whether it's drivers,
13:07
you want the best available.
13:10
So people can see it
13:12
as ruthless but at the
13:14
end of the day it's a
13:16
competitive environment, it's high performance, top
13:19
of the motorsports. these guys want
13:21
what's what's best and I think
13:23
it's understandable and as much as
13:26
as a driver when you feel
13:28
you've got the best skills you
13:30
want the best cars available so
13:33
I think it goes both ways
13:35
and it's completely fair to have
13:37
this sort of expectation
13:40
but yeah at the end of the
13:42
day you could say it's just a
13:44
direct it doesn't you know hide these
13:46
thoughts and emotions and it'll be quite
13:49
straightforward but yeah honestly I rather
13:51
I have this sort of personality
13:53
than not really knowing or reading
13:55
what someone can think. This episode

for more details. There's still lots
15:26
more to come from Pierre. I ask
15:29
him about his new teammate Jack
15:31
Dewin and Franco Colopinto, but I
15:33
wanted to let you know what's
15:35
going on on F1's other official
15:37
podcasts. On F1 Nation this week,
15:39
you can hear our review of
15:41
the Chinese Grand Prix with me
15:43
and F1 TVs Laura Winter and
15:45
Alex Jake's. And on F1 explains,
15:47
McLaren's CEO, Zach Brown, answers your
15:49
questions about running a race team
15:52
that's fighting for the World Championship.
15:54
So once you've finished listening to
15:56
Pierre on F1B on the grid,
15:58
why not check out F1 Nation and...
16:00
everyone explains. And on the
16:02
subject of Ollie Oakes, he's
16:04
the third team principle you've
16:07
had since you've been at
16:09
the team. There was the
16:11
Opmar Safnauer era, there was
16:13
the Bruno famine era. How
16:15
different is your relationship
16:17
with Ollie to the two previous
16:20
guys? Well, it always takes
16:22
sometimes, you know, to
16:24
obviously create that sort
16:26
of relationship, that's understanding...
16:28
trust, but I must say
16:30
it's going very well because as
16:32
I say, Ollie is a true racer, so
16:35
he comes from, he used to be a
16:37
race driver himself. So he
16:39
understands both sides, he
16:42
understands the engineering side,
16:44
he understands the team point
16:46
of view, but he also understands
16:48
the driver's point of view, which
16:50
really is... and help the sort
16:53
of conversation we have from my
16:55
side and also like going forward
16:57
and move together with the team
16:59
and how to actually get the
17:01
maximum out of all of us.
17:03
So when Ollie came in I
17:05
didn't know much about him so
17:07
it takes a few months to
17:09
open up and really understand each
17:11
other but I think after a couple
17:14
of months I can say I'm very
17:16
happy where we are and the direction
17:18
we are hitting as a team as
17:20
well. should not forget 12 months ago
17:22
I definitely didn't smile much even though
17:24
I'm a very smiley person I must
17:27
say we went through a pretty tough
17:29
time as a team which obviously personally
17:31
is difficult because you put so much
17:33
efforts and going back home after every
17:35
single race and seeing you're kind of
17:37
limited there is nothing really satisfying in
17:39
terms of performance because at the end
17:42
of the day I want the result that
17:44
that what makes me happy I can do the
17:46
best race ever if it's to finish P14 I'll
17:48
go back home and I'll go back home and
17:50
It takes sometimes to kind of like sink in
17:53
and move on to the next thing. So I
17:55
think the work we've been doing over these
17:57
past few months has been really impressive.
18:00
overall all together as a
18:02
team. Thanks to Ollie, thanks
18:04
to Flav and everybody back
18:06
at the factory, but can
18:08
really feel that dynamic is
18:10
switching and there is a real
18:12
desire of achieving a higher level
18:15
of performance, but we're
18:17
just demanding more from
18:19
ourselves. And yeah, everything is kind
18:21
of slowly, all the pieces are
18:23
falling in the right places and
18:25
I think we'll see that. We'll
18:27
see the real words of all
18:29
of that in a few months.
18:31
I mean, it's felt like a
18:34
team in transition for the duration
18:36
of the time you've been there
18:38
actually since 23. Do you feel
18:40
that it's got everything it needs
18:42
now to challenge at the front?
18:44
You'll always want more. You know, it's
18:46
the reality of life and especially
18:48
in that sport. There is infinite
18:51
improvements to be made. I think the
18:53
way and the shape... we have at
18:55
the minute the structure we have is
18:58
the strongest I've I've seen in Alpine
19:00
since I arrived and that's why it
19:02
gives me a lot of hopes that
19:04
great achievements can be can be done
19:07
over the over the next few months
19:09
and you know especially in 2026. The
19:11
mentality and the mindset is what's
19:13
most important for me just
19:16
seeing the desire and the belief of
19:18
my team that we can actually do
19:20
it which is something which was missing
19:22
when I arrived, there was a will,
19:24
but did we actually believe it
19:27
was possible? Probably not everybody.
19:29
And I feel the work
19:31
that has been done over the
19:33
past few months was really reinforcing
19:36
the belief into our people that
19:38
we actually got the staff, we
19:40
got the facilities, we got all
19:43
the requirements to actually bring alpin
19:45
back to the top. And I
19:48
do believe it's achievable. Where's
19:50
that belief come from? That's...
19:52
the work of many people, but
19:55
obviously it comes from
19:57
you know the brands management
19:59
the people, the driver and
20:01
at the end the staff, you
20:04
know, motivating each other, having the
20:06
desire of putting the extra hours.
20:08
And you just see like the
20:10
effort that I'll put at the
20:12
factory, the motivation, the energy, the
20:15
way people actually talk about ourselves
20:17
inside the team, I can feel
20:19
like a real sense of pride
20:21
now of being part of
20:23
albin, which is crucially important.
20:26
It's part of that. It's part
20:28
of that. from the momentum you
20:30
built up last year, I mean,
20:32
bad memory, but you qualified
20:34
last in Bahrain at the first
20:36
race of last year, and then
20:39
there was that sensational P3 at
20:41
Las Vegas at the end of
20:43
the year. That rate of progress
20:45
was sensational, and is that what has
20:48
borne the belief inside Enstone?
20:50
100% you know, at the end of
20:52
the day, the results don't lie, and
20:54
that comparison, let alone I
20:56
think shows it all, like it just...
20:58
literally qualified last in a
21:01
couple of months the team managed
21:03
to turn a car which Really
21:05
didn't feel good. Yeah, I didn't respond
21:07
to any sort of input I
21:09
was trying to do inside a
21:11
car and they managed to give
21:13
me a car which We qualified
21:15
on the second row in Vegas
21:18
on pure pace No, nothing nothing
21:20
happened. It was just like real
21:22
pure pace and it just shows
21:24
from our understanding as a team
21:26
we obviously spotted very early on
21:28
what went wrong in the car
21:30
but their abilities to actually improve
21:32
the processes we've put in place
21:34
to really bring a lot of
21:36
performance on the car so
21:39
there are a lot of positives sometimes
21:41
I wish I could like fast forward
21:43
sings up to to see how we're
21:45
going to be like in a couple
21:48
of months time but I do have
21:50
a lot of belief that yeah we'll
21:52
see albin competing for much better position
21:54
in a short term. Where did
21:56
the car improve last year? I
21:58
mean, okay. A lot was made of
22:01
the weight. But it must have been
22:03
more than that. Yeah, more than
22:05
that. In everyone, sometimes we like
22:07
to pinpoint just to a
22:09
single stuff. There are unlimited stuff
22:11
you can do in the car
22:14
to actually bring hundreds of performance.
22:16
You'll go from weight saving
22:18
to drag reduction to increase
22:20
of done force, to fine
22:23
tune some engine setting the
22:25
extraction of the actual setup
22:27
and maximizing what you got,
22:29
the tire usage. you know
22:31
the mapping electronics into the
22:33
car actually finding a car
22:36
balance which suits your more
22:38
like natural driving which will
22:40
allow you to get that
22:42
last tense out of the car
22:44
putting all these pieces together
22:46
then end up having
22:49
a considerable gain on
22:51
track but it's not down to
22:53
one thing it's it's really
22:55
the addition of many little
22:57
improvements. Yeah, clearly you put
22:59
a very good lap in
23:01
in Vegas qualifying. But if you'd
23:03
taken the car you had in Bahrain
23:06
to that race, would it have been
23:08
back row of the grill again? It
23:10
would have been. Yeah. And then have
23:12
you managed to keep that momentum
23:14
going over the winter? Does this
23:16
car, the 25 car, feel a
23:18
step forward again? I think it
23:20
does feel like we've improved in
23:22
certain areas. key points on the
23:25
20-24 car which were not ideal, which
23:27
we changed for this year. It does
23:29
feel like the grade kind of
23:31
also came a bit more together.
23:33
So the games we've made, some
23:36
other teams made big against, some
23:38
other smaller, but it's gonna be
23:40
an extremely tight field for the
23:42
entire season, which is exciting because
23:44
you know at times it's gonna
23:46
come your way, at times on
23:48
harder weekends. It might be critical,
23:51
but that's why we'll have to
23:53
be clinical about every single weekend
23:55
and really try to absolutely nail
23:57
it because you can get a...
23:59
or you can lose a lot
24:02
on a season like that. You
24:04
said before the start of the
24:06
season that you want that second
24:08
win in Formula One this year.
24:10
Now you've seen the opposition.
24:13
Do you still think that looks
24:15
feasible? The only one that
24:17
I see could make this slightly
24:19
more difficult to achieve is
24:21
the McLarens. My clients are
24:24
really on a different level
24:26
and it does look like the gap
24:28
with them. even on our best weekend
24:30
and might be difficult to close
24:32
but then at the same time you know on
24:34
24 races they're not going to get
24:37
it right every single time they're going
24:39
to be race situations scenarios people call
24:41
it luck but then at the end
24:43
of the day it's racing you know
24:45
in a full season if there is
24:48
no unexpected scenarios happening there's no
24:50
point of going racing anymore you
24:52
know because that's what makes our
24:55
sports so enjoyable to watch and so
24:57
exciting like Out of 24 races, I know
24:59
they're going to be that one, same as
25:01
last year in Brazil, some as the year
25:03
before in Zenvot when I finished on the
25:05
podium on the rain. And they're going to
25:08
be these conditions where on a day like
25:10
that, as a driver, you'll have more chance
25:12
to grab a big result. And that's what
25:14
I'm hoping. You know, it might be one of
25:16
the seasons where nothing happened and at the end
25:18
of the day, all the podiums are going to
25:20
be with two McLarens and a red ball until
25:22
the end of the end of the end of
25:25
the end of the year. You know it
25:27
doesn't happen like that and and
25:29
we get our our shots to
25:31
get one of those big results
25:33
and it is those crazy races
25:36
Where you seem to really excel
25:38
you have a history of it.
25:40
I mean, yeah, you mentioned Zanvoort
25:43
you mentioned Brazil as well back
25:45
in the day. It's that's I
25:47
think something I'm Quite let's say
25:50
proud is at stage of my
25:52
career so far. I haven't had
25:54
like You know out of those eight
25:56
years I've been mainly racing in
25:58
the midfield and when you're racing
26:01
in the midfield you're trying
26:03
to stand out which is
26:05
difficult because people kind of stop
26:07
you know after the top three
26:10
people don't actually know they don't
26:12
even pay attention who's false 56
26:14
whatever so my point is every
26:16
single week and I come with
26:18
the same mindset that anything's
26:21
possible and I want to make
26:23
sure that's out of the midfield
26:25
I'm that first one that will
26:27
benefit or get anything out
26:29
of a situation, one of those
26:31
situations. Because, you know, at the
26:33
end of the day, you can
26:36
get one podium by like, two
26:38
podium by like, but you don't
26:40
get five by like. There is
26:42
a repetition of actions that put you
26:44
in a situation where you can be
26:46
the one to get rewarded from
26:48
those races. And I think
26:51
that's something I've managed to
26:53
do pretty much throughout my whole career.
26:55
I can't be like, oh yeah, that
26:57
was... that one podium where I had
26:59
a chance and I missed it not
27:01
to be vulgar, you know, where it
27:04
didn't come my way. I know every
27:06
single chance I've had to actually stand
27:08
on that podium in Formula One.
27:10
I was there and I performed and
27:12
I didn't put a foot wrong
27:14
and that's the mentality where every
27:16
weekend you're going to come in
27:18
and maybe you need to settle
27:20
for eight nights or ten because
27:23
that's just the way it goes,
27:25
the fastest cars. Not at reach. But
27:27
then that one or two chances you get
27:29
a year, then I want to be the
27:31
one to get it just to show that
27:33
I'm there when the moments come.
27:35
So you're definitely opportunistic, but
27:37
you also keep your nose
27:39
clean and I am fascinated
27:41
by the stat that you cost the
27:43
team zero Zero. Zero years
27:46
was pretty happy about that
27:48
one. That's totally Flavio's language,
27:50
isn't it? But do you have I mean,
27:52
all formal one drive is a
27:54
brilliant athletes, but Do you have
27:56
that something else that allows
27:59
you to? keep your nose clean.
28:01
Like, do you have this amazing peripheral
28:03
vision? I mean, if you hold your finger
28:05
up here, can you see further
28:07
back than the rest? Right there, I got
28:09
two fingers at the back of my head. It's
28:14
difficult to explain. I
28:16
think it's awareness trying
28:19
to sense every situation.
28:21
And it turns out
28:23
there is a part of, you
28:25
know, being lucky that, you know,
28:27
no one actually done anything stupid
28:30
or raced in any, you know,
28:32
like, silly way during the
28:35
years. So I think
28:37
it's a mix of different
28:39
characteristics. I think at the
28:41
end of the day, I always race
28:43
hard and clean. Like, if I look
28:45
at last year, there were moments where
28:47
obviously I came extremely close with
28:50
some of the cars and it's
28:52
just trying to find that
28:54
fine margins in those wheels, wheel
28:56
-to -wheel battle. And I
28:58
always race hard in
29:00
mind keeping my car clean because at
29:02
the end of the day, you want
29:04
to see the checkered flag because if
29:06
it's to retire, then you don't even
29:08
get a chance, no matter the performance
29:10
of the car. But then, yeah, I
29:12
think overall in my career, never really
29:15
crashed much. I
29:18
remember, like, yeah, the
29:20
Red Bull episodes where I've had,
29:22
like, two crashes in the winter.
29:24
I think before that, probably had
29:26
one crash in F1 in my
29:29
career. And following that, I probably
29:31
think you could probably count my
29:33
crashes in F1, like, on my
29:35
two hands, which is not much
29:37
considering at what you see on
29:39
the grid. But it's difficult to explain.
29:41
guess there is a sense of awareness
29:43
and probably a bit of luck
29:45
as well. And when you're racing the
29:47
other guys, you must know them
29:49
inside out as well. You must have
29:51
a file in your
29:53
brain, OK, I'm racing so and so
29:56
now. They're likely to do this, so
29:58
your car positioning can win all... each
30:00
other. I know in my mind any
30:02
single driver that I fight, I know
30:04
the way I raise them and
30:06
there might be a guy having
30:08
my car in the same position
30:11
attacking a main straits with the
30:13
same gap. I know that this
30:15
guy are more likely to overtake
30:18
him in turn one on
30:20
the entry or that one on
30:22
the exit or this one into
30:24
the breaking turn three. And
30:26
this is just knowing the way
30:29
they raise. knowing their sort
30:31
of car position most of
30:33
the time knowing their aggressivity
30:35
knowing Whether they are more likely
30:37
to make a mistake So at
30:39
the end of the day it's It
30:42
is important to know the guys that
30:44
you raise because it does Push you
30:46
into making the right the right
30:48
decisions and probably at the end
30:51
of the day we go back to
30:53
also you know that that's that's the
30:55
fact that I keep my nose clean
30:57
is I I'm aware of who I'm fighting
31:00
and I know how to raise them. Who
31:02
are the guys you're most wary
31:04
of? I'm not worried of anyone, it's
31:06
just a different approach. You'll fall
31:08
someone into a mistake or someone
31:11
else who you'll know that being
31:13
slightly more aggressive will pay
31:15
off. Another one you'll probably know
31:17
that it won't make that mistake
31:19
so you'll have to kind of
31:21
wear him out a little bit
31:24
more and and probably try to
31:26
use his engine a bit more
31:28
and... And then after there's another
31:30
thing is something I actually study
31:32
and analyze a lot because I
31:35
like data and I work, I
31:37
put quite a lot of hours
31:39
with my guys and analyzing the
31:41
other cars is going into a
31:43
race. I know my strength is in
31:46
turn 7, turn 9 and versus Aston
31:48
Martin. I'm weaker breaking 14 and
31:50
the last part of the track. You
31:53
know all of that before you go
31:55
in? Yeah. So I'll know if I got
31:57
a fight with those guys, I'm more
31:59
likely... to make a difference in that sector
32:01
2 than sector 3. So in that case,
32:04
if I go into sector 3, I try
32:06
to force him to lose a bit of
32:08
time so I can stay closer. So when
32:10
I get to sector 2, I get a
32:13
better shot. Rather than desperately trying to attack
32:15
him at the end of the strait where
32:17
I know I won't be in a favorable
32:19
position. There is all this to take into
32:22
consideration when you're in the car, sometimes it
32:24
doesn't look like that from the outside. It's
32:26
like, oh yeah, it's just try that, that
32:28
move, or why did he move that kind,
32:30
that position? But because you're trying to set
32:33
up yourself for a quarter of a lap
32:35
later or a third of the lap later.

Can we talk about
34:15
how you feel you've
34:17
improved as a racing
34:19
driver? You've got what 150
34:22
odd starts under your belt?
34:24
You're 29. You're 29 and
34:26
you're the fifth. oldest driver
34:28
in formal one. How does
34:30
that make you feel? That's
34:32
really crazy because a couple
34:34
years ago at 29 you'll
34:36
probably be one of the
34:39
youngest. Exactly. In 25, yeah,
34:41
fifths. Where are you still
34:43
getting better? I get better
34:45
every year. I'm not going
34:47
to lie. I feel it's one
34:49
of these sports where experience
34:52
really come in handy because
34:54
we don't practice much. You know,
34:57
compared to any other sports. But
34:59
you know friends in football
35:01
or basketball or tennis and
35:04
Whenever I discuss with them, they're
35:06
like I yeah every day we
35:09
actually practice us both they'll play
35:11
ball They'll play you know they'll
35:13
get on the courts They'll try
35:16
to like You know really perfect
35:18
that that shot they get from
35:20
outside the box and and I'm
35:22
like Well, I never practice next
35:24
time I get out is for
35:26
my FP1 in China or Japan.
35:29
Do you go carting in between
35:31
the races? Honestly, with the time
35:33
we have available, it's
35:35
hard and I love to. If I
35:38
could, I would be sitting in
35:40
an F1 car every single week
35:42
because I'm sure you would actually
35:45
get that point, you
35:47
know, 1% of yourself
35:49
and you're driving by
35:51
just like having those
35:53
thousands repetition. But it's not
35:55
something we were able to do, so
35:57
it brings that all the challenge of...
36:00
You need to adapt very quickly in F1
36:02
compared to previous categories where maybe you
36:04
got a bit more practice, a bit
36:06
more test days, you know, in cutting
36:08
people used to practice like 200 days
36:10
a year. It's like fine, it works
36:13
those days, but when you get to
36:15
F1 is that natural ability to get
36:17
on it straight away. You need to
36:19
get the feel very quickly. But yeah,
36:21
we don't get to practice, so I
36:23
do feel every year you're always learning
36:25
about yourself, about the team, about how
36:27
to extract. I think when I was
36:29
mainly... trying to really understand myself the
36:32
feeling inside the car and know
36:34
it's my knowledge has gone a
36:36
bit wider in terms of teamwork and
36:38
how do I get more from my
36:41
guys and all together as a team
36:43
how do we complement each other to
36:45
make sure that when we get to
36:47
the track not only myself is a
36:50
hundred percent but all of
36:52
us as a team the
36:54
car the mechanics the engineers
36:56
my race engineers the communication
36:58
how do we prep ourselves
37:00
better that we have an age
37:02
when we get to that
37:04
qualifying or race. Pierre, do
37:06
you know what you sound
37:08
like? You sound like a team
37:11
leader. That last 30 seconds. You
37:13
seem to enjoy, are you
37:15
relishing that role? I love
37:17
that role. I embrace that
37:19
role. It's about making a
37:21
difference at the end of the
37:24
day. It's about leading that
37:26
team in the right direction.
37:28
I'm not someone that's settled
37:31
for suboptimal work or
37:33
performance. I always want the
37:35
best for my team, for my
37:38
people and for myself. And yeah,
37:40
whenever I get back home on
37:42
a Sunday night and I want
37:44
to feel okay, hopefully it's been
37:47
a strong result, but regardless
37:49
of the outcome, have we
37:51
done everything perfectly or at
37:54
the level that's at the
37:56
standard of... race winning
37:58
team and And that's
38:00
what we want to, that's what we
38:03
want to be like. So. Are you
38:05
a natural leader? I think since I
38:07
was a kid, I've always been like
38:09
that. So I used to play football
38:11
and I used to. Were you
38:13
the one on the pitch? I
38:15
just used to push my teammate
38:17
and you know, it's like having
38:19
that winning mentality. I, no matter
38:21
what I do, it's just deep
38:23
inside me. It doesn't matter. I
38:26
got a win. I want to win. So
38:28
whether I play. chess on my off
38:30
time against random people online, I
38:32
get absolutely, I'm fuming if
38:35
I lose, even though I don't know
38:37
against who I play, but is that
38:39
in a fire I've got inside me?
38:41
And I know the day I don't have
38:43
it is no point for me
38:45
to be in sport anymore. That's
38:47
my motivation every single day. That's
38:49
what I use to make all the
38:52
efforts and putting the hours to
38:54
improve myself and improve my team.
38:56
And that's also why I love
38:58
my life because that's my purpose
39:00
and I know exactly what I
39:02
want. It feels like you've stepped up
39:04
this year. Okay, you've got a rookie
39:07
as your teammate. You seem to rub
39:09
along very well. You're in Jack by
39:11
the way. Is that true? Yeah, that's
39:13
true. Yeah, there's no there's no acting
39:15
there. Jack is an amazing guy. It's
39:18
very funny. I mean like most
39:20
of the hosty people there they're
39:22
very easy going and yeah he's
39:24
a fast guy honestly I know
39:26
he's not having the easiest way
39:28
into formula one and there are
39:30
many situations where I can relate
39:32
with what I had to go through at
39:34
some stage in my career and I didn't
39:36
feel good I didn't like it I didn't
39:38
enjoy those times and in a way I
39:40
don't feel like I want him to have
39:42
these similar feelings which I had
39:45
because everyone is all about you
39:47
need to enjoy your time we're lucky
39:49
to be in the position we are He
39:51
dreamt about Formula One his entire life.
39:53
I dreamt about F1. When we get
39:55
here, it's all about the performance, but
39:58
it's important to also... enjoy
40:00
that process. We've got only one life,
40:02
we have only one career and it's
40:05
we're here to enjoy every single second.
40:07
It should not be like we're here
40:09
feeling not great. So that's why there
40:12
are situations where it's more in terms
40:14
of mindset, focus and trying to keep
40:16
him focused on the right stuff which
40:19
you know ultimately will be good for
40:21
him, will be good for the team
40:23
and will be good for all of
40:26
us. Do you think he's been put
40:28
under an unfair amount of pressure coming
40:30
in? Yeah. I think the guy was
40:33
already all over the media before he
40:35
even got to race in a phone.
40:37
So I think you need to give
40:40
the guy some time and time will
40:42
tell. But in this position, because he
40:44
was given the chance, was given the
40:47
chance because people believe in him in
40:49
the first place. And it's a tough
40:51
environment. It's always going to be pressure,
40:54
they're always going to be talks. What's
40:56
unfair is the fact that not everybody
40:58
gets talked the same way. and this
41:01
is something I don't like, I won't
41:03
change it myself, I've seen it all
41:05
as well, but for a given situation,
41:08
you know, that's life, you don't always
41:10
get the same treatment and that's how
41:12
it is, but at the end of
41:15
the day, regardless of all the noise,
41:17
etc. I think as an athlete it's
41:19
important to stay focused in the right
41:22
targets and try, you know, to shield
41:24
yourself the best way you can, so
41:26
I learned it my way. through my
41:29
own challenges and all my own obstacles
41:31
and mistakes etc. But if it can
41:33
come useful and handy for, you know,
41:36
my teammates, which I appreciate and who
41:38
I need to perform for the championship
41:40
and for the team, I'll support very
41:43
happily. Looking at Franco Colopinto, he's the
41:45
reserve driver, do you see positives in
41:47
him being with the team? Because that's
41:50
where a lot of the pressure for
41:52
Jack has come from. I mean, at
41:54
the end of the day, I love
41:57
Franco as well and he's doing extremely
41:59
well. and I'm sure he has his
42:01
place on the grids, but I think
42:03
we should not forget every team has
42:06
got a reserve driver. I was
42:08
a reserve driver at Redball, I
42:10
was a reserve driver at Tauroso.
42:12
I wanted the seats of the main
42:14
drivers. I like the main drivers,
42:16
but I'm not here to just
42:19
watch, I'm here to race. Any
42:21
reserve driver wants the race seats of
42:23
the teams they are in, regardless of
42:25
who you are. And when Jack was
42:27
reserve driver last year. Esteban and myself
42:29
are there and we know we want
42:31
to race in one of our car.
42:34
It's it's normal That's the normal dynamic
42:36
of of a race team and Franco
42:38
is there and obviously wants to race
42:40
and you know I hope for him
42:42
is we're gonna see him on the
42:45
grid Soon because it's proven to be
42:47
a you know a very strong driver
42:49
But it's more like it's just the
42:51
natural dynamic. There is no need to
42:53
extrapolate or made extra You know,
42:55
it's just that's how it is. It's
42:57
always been in a fun voice
43:00
of experience speaking there Just
43:02
a couple more things. Can we go
43:04
outside of formula one now? You've
43:06
got the football team Yeah, F
43:08
C Versailles I saw they were playing rule
43:10
on the other day by the way
43:12
your hometown You're watching third division with
43:15
French football, and I saw it was
43:17
one I read that I read that
43:19
I read that message to Versa Guys,
43:21
please don't beat these people. I want
43:24
to get out of here alive, right?
43:26
Go to my family back home, please.
43:28
Keep everybody safe. Are you enjoying
43:30
the footi? You've also got the
43:32
paddle team as well? Yeah. You're
43:34
expending. You've got what's of
43:37
interest outside of motorspool? I've
43:39
always had that curiosity
43:41
and interest. You know, beside
43:43
formula one, I always say when
43:45
we are in the padoc, people kind
43:47
of know. 10% of who we are,
43:50
really, because we come here with
43:52
a race driver, I'm in my
43:54
work environment, I work in a
43:56
certain way, but it's almost like,
43:59
I mean... to that not like
44:01
robot, but I know exactly what I
44:03
come here for and it's just for
44:05
work. It doesn't display who I am
44:07
or who I think or who I
44:10
like, come out of the car after
44:12
two minutes with all this emotion and
44:14
I'm quite emotional person. I speak on
44:16
TV and people got that vision of,
44:18
okay, that guy is like that, he
44:21
used these words, say these words, he
44:23
might think or be like that. But
44:25
at the end of the day, we
44:27
all humans, we all go back home.
44:29
get back home on a Sunday night,
44:32
sit down on my coach. And there
44:34
are other stuff I like in life
44:36
and in my life, which actually helped
44:38
me to balance that pressure I have
44:40
in my work environments, which I don't,
44:43
it's not my work, it's my passion,
44:45
but in Formula One. And I balance
44:47
it with that interest in other stuff.
44:49
So yes, sport is obviously a big
44:52
part of my life. I've always been
44:54
a massive football fan. I played when
44:56
I was a kid, always had that
44:58
desire to be involved in some in
45:00
some ways. took a great decision to
45:03
stop football at 11 and focus on
45:05
counting but then I've always had that
45:07
desire to somehow remain in this environment
45:09
competitive which I just love football I
45:11
just love the game and yeah I
45:14
decided to invest in FCSI on a
45:16
long-term project because it's a third division
45:18
team and we aspire to... What are
45:20
your ambitions for the team? Yeah I
45:23
always said very high goals to myself
45:25
because that's what... drives me to work
45:27
hard and put a lot of efforts.
45:29
But hopefully one day we see Versailles
45:31
in the first league. At the same
45:34
time I'm objective. It's not something that's
45:36
going to happen over the next three
45:38
years. It's probably more like a five
45:40
to eight years project. But I'm with
45:42
other corners. You know what they say
45:45
about football? It costs a lot of
45:47
money. How do you make a small
45:49
fortune out of football? You start with
45:51
a big one? Well, the good thing
45:54
is I can't talk to Flavio about
45:56
it because it's true Queen's Park Rangers.
45:58
Exactly. It did it did invest in
46:00
football. well so but yeah I got
46:02
the paddle team you play in the
46:05
paddle team right I don't play no
46:07
I don't play I'm just owner they're
46:09
they are like professional players we do
46:11
have professional players in the competition and
46:13
I just enjoy also seeing the other
46:16
side of using my knowledge as an
46:18
athlete the sort of extremely high
46:20
standard we got in formula
46:22
one for us to perform and try
46:25
to provide some of that to a
46:27
level which is not as professional as
46:29
the one I mean. So like this
46:31
I can give a platform in a
46:34
sort of environment where people can really
46:36
excel in what they're doing. And also
46:38
like we got like very young players
46:40
coming in trying to give them a
46:43
chance to you know take off and
46:45
get their own career. I think it's
46:47
quite satisfying and something I enjoy. And
46:50
yeah, it's not only in the sport
46:52
I've got other... investment more in
46:54
tech and you know like I
46:56
love being part of a story
46:58
and journey something that starts and
47:00
actually open myself to world
47:02
that I don't know perfectly just to learn
47:04
to learn more because at the end
47:06
of the day you know I just
47:08
want to be wiser when I retire
47:10
than than the one I know. You're
47:12
not someone who gets bored are you? No,
47:14
no people around me will say
47:17
it's pretty hard to keep up
47:19
with definitely my girlfriend though way.
47:21
doesn't always enjoy this hectic
47:23
life, but that's just why I'm
47:25
I gotta be only told all
47:28
the time and wired and it
47:30
also helps me kind of
47:32
like whenever I get back in
47:34
that paddock I just close
47:36
myself and it's I get
47:39
like a sharper type of focus
47:41
into the biggest job in
47:43
my life and to achieve my
47:45
biggest dream. Do you want to
47:47
see the team improve this car
47:50
or Do you want to see them throw
47:52
everything at 2026? I want to go big
47:54
so, you know, I've told them already
47:56
since last year to me. Maybe a
47:58
good thing I don't manage. the finance but
48:00
if it was down to me I'll
48:02
put all that money all on next
48:04
year because if you ask me I don't
48:06
actually care finishing sevens six
48:09
eight nine or ten I want to
48:11
be on the podium and I want
48:13
to be winning I know this year
48:15
doesn't matter how much money we put
48:17
we won't be able to close that
48:20
gap with McLaren and and the top
48:22
runner where next year as a
48:24
team I see a huge opportunity and
48:26
we could be fighting for the World
48:28
Championship in 2026 if we do the
48:30
right, if we take the right steps
48:33
and make the right decisions for next
48:35
year. So to me it's a very
48:37
clear decision. The strategy is
48:39
already decided, you know. By strategy, you
48:41
mean what, Mercedes power? Yes, and also
48:43
in the way that we're going to
48:46
develop our car for next year and
48:48
the focus for it, but there is
48:50
much more... to achieve as a team
48:52
in 2026 than we'll be able to
48:54
do in 25. And that's why I'm
48:57
really exciting because I think we could
48:59
see Albin winning races in 26. Exciting
49:01
times ahead, definitely. Pierre, thank
49:03
you very much. Just before
49:05
you go, this final question
49:07
I'm asking everybody this year on
49:09
the podcast. What is your favorite
49:12
moment from the 75-year history
49:14
of this great sport? My
49:21
favorite moment. I guess I'll have
49:23
to go is my win in Monza.
49:25
It's the obvious one, but yeah,
49:27
the emotions I've had on
49:30
that day were unique and I
49:32
don't think it will be ever
49:34
forgotten for me in my
49:36
life. So probably that was
49:38
the most emotional and mocking
49:40
moment in my career. Obviously for
49:43
F1 itself in 75 years, so
49:45
many things happened. But personally that
49:47
was the... more special one. It
49:49
was an awesome moment. Thank you
49:51
very much for this chat pier.
49:54
Great to see you again. Good
49:56
luck. Thank you. Who
50:02
can forget Pierre's win at Monza? I
50:04
still remember seeing him sitting on
50:06
the podium next to his trophy,
50:08
long after the fanfare had ended,
50:10
just soaking it all up. I
50:13
thoroughly enjoyed catching up with Pierre
50:15
again. There's an assured confidence about
50:17
him now, something that comes with
50:19
a greater understanding of the sport
50:21
and knowing what opportunities there are.
50:23
If the chance to win presents
50:25
itself this year, I'm sure he'll
50:27
grab it with open arms. Pierre,
50:29
thanks for your time. See you
50:31
at a racetrack again soon. Now,
50:33
