Alpine certainly has made some significant steps to the front but I don't see either of those teams being contenders anytime soon. AM is probably less likely considering they're a customer team for engines.

I'd assume Alonso is worth the money for developing the car. If you've got mediocre/inexperienced drivers, it's hard to know whether the car is being driven at it's potential and where the weaknesses are.
Dunno how under or overrated that is. That’s why AM signed Vettel and unfortunately we see how well that went. Danny and Lando are excellent drivers and they’ve decidedly gone backwards. Of course MB to.

Alpine did get to the top of the mid pack heap this year though so that is obviously something. A lot of that is because they stopped having engines that would go boom during a race to I’m sure.
