“We entered the series after a 2-year break and we did it with
a rookie driver like Alessio Rovera. In addition to that, we still
had to figure out a car we didn't know and, given what we did
in the championship, we can be satisfied because we grew up
so much that we scored some podiums and took the win. And
that's never easy in a competitive series like this. Next year
we'll return to ALPS and we'll also be looking for a driver for
the Eurocup. At the moment though, the program only includes
this championship which is incredibly high-level in terms of
teams and drivers. The demonstration is that de Vries faced
the same amount of struggle in both the ALPS and the Euro-
cup. So, until Formula Renault will exist, we'll be there. It's part
of the history and heritage of our team".

“Let's say that we are mostly in line with that we anticipated.
Obviously, I would have liked to score more points with
Capitanio, but he sometimes got very unlucky during the races.
On the other hand, I consider his a pretty positive season
because it feels that the overall championship's level
has grown up considerably. The newcomers adapted
themselves in an excellent fashion and they were extremely
quick straight away. Last year, it felt like was a tad easier.
Regarding us, I've some regrets for the rounds at Monza and
Mugello, where we thought we could have been on the podium.
It's racing though, and we're going to try again next year.
Our goal is to field three cars. It won't be easy, but sure we're
going to try very hard. This is a really high-level championship
and this is both a positive and a negative. If you're not at the top
of the game, it's easy to be confined to the back of the pack.
That's also the good side. There's much more satisfaction
in fighting to emerge!".
“Our season weren't really in line with our expectations.
During the winter, we invested on a driver that could have
brought us to the front end of the pack. And he proved that in
collective testing and during the first round at Imola.
Then, after a big crash in Imola, he decided to stop.
This forced us to revise our plans and we decided to give a hand
to Daniele Cazzaniga. We had won another series with him,
but in order to grow up quickly, the ALPS is the right
place given the high technical level. Obviously, since we had
different plans at the start, we aren't fully satisfied so we'll be
working hard to better ourselves next season.
We'll try to have two cars and make some steps forward.
The championship is really competitive and the whole wild-card
concept must be revised. On one side, wild cards help to fill the
grid, but they also make the competition more exasperate.
That could make young drivers, who don't have the same
possibilities, to look away".
