Valtteri Bottas

Alfa Romeo F1 Team
Finland
2023 Fantasy Outlook
In his first year with the Alfa Romeo squad Bottas captured 49 points and finished 10th in the standings. It was his first season without a podium finish since he joined the series in 2013, though. The Alfa Romeo squad was not able to develop their cars as much as some other contenders and Bottas lost ground in the championship positions as a result. His best results of the season came within the first nine races. Reliability also plagued him with five DNFs in the last 13 races compared to just one in those first nine. As a Formula One veteran with 10 career wins Bottas is certainly not a driver to sleep on in 2023, however. If the current pattern holds, he should be expected to get the most out of the car early in the year, but he and the team will need to continue getting more speed out of their 2023 car through the remainder of the season to finish higher in the standings than they did in 2022.

Rough time in Saudi Arabia
Formula One
March 19, 2023
Bottas finished 18th at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix F1 race at Jeddah Corniche Circuit on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Bottas had a forgettable weekend, and he knew he was off the pace since early rounds of practice. He managed to push his car into Q2 and started 14th on the grid, though he slipped from there and was the only driver to finish a lap behind Sunday. Bottas finished P8 on the opening weekend of the season in Bahrain, and it appears that his Alfa Romeo will be successful only at specific tracks.
