For Formula 1, 2022 will be the year of the first Chinese driver to compete as a starter in the Circus. A historic turning point for sport, which thus opens the doors to a truly immense market. It was therefore inevitable that on the day of the presentation of the livery of the new C42 created by Alfa Romeo, most of the attention was entirely for the young rookie. Guanyu Zhou, called to defend the colors of the Hinwil team after replacing the Italian Antonio Giovinazzi. Speaking on the sidelines of the presentation event of the Swiss single-seater, Zhou particularly wanted to thank the team for the support they provided him during these first days of work.
“I am absolutely excited for the season and seeing the C42 finally in the livery we will be racing in makes this real – said the pilot of the Asian giant – we are at the beginning of a new era, with new cars and new regulations, and this offers an opportunity for all teams to make progress as we are all starting from scratch. Everyone on the Alfa Romeo team has been incredibly helpful since I joined – continued Zhou – and seeing everyone’s hard work, commitment and motivation, in Hinwil and on the track, fills me with pride and emotion. I can’t wait to be on the starting grid behind the wheel of this car and to work with my team to bring home the results we are aiming for together.“.
