The Alfa Romeo team presented its car for the 2022 Formula 1 season after being present at the winter tests at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya. The Swiss were the last to reveal the look of their car for the new regulations, wearing their classic colors that we were already used to, red and white.

Those from Hinwil closed the Formula 1 presentation calendar with the C42, Alfa Romeo’s first ground effect car with current regulations. This is the team’s 15th model, and they continue the dynamic on its behalf, as it was rumored that they would return to the C40 because they skipped a number in 2021.
The team led by Frédéric Vasseur will have the new driver duo formed by Valtteri Bottas and Guanyu Zhou at the wheel, so they will have to thoroughly study the behavior of the car before the opening round of the Bahrain Grand Prix on March 20.
The Finn abandoned the structure that has won in all the championships of the hybrid era, Mercedes, since those from Brackley hired George Russell as his substitute to accompany Lewis Hamilton. Bottas, who achieved his 10 victories with the star team, left after a bittersweet stage, being runner-up twice, but winning the constructors’ title five times.
Now, the #77 will take the reins of the Hinwil project to try to improve the poor ninth position of 2021, where they only added 13 points and their best result was two eighth places in Russia and Mexico with Kimi Raikkonen.
At his side will be the first Chinese driver in history, Guanyu Zhou, who took over the position after providing great financial support. The youngster who grew up in the Renault/Alpine academy will have the Finn as his guide in his debut year, and will try to show why he has made it to the Grand Circus.
