There is one lasting image I have of Alpine's departing team principal, Bruno Famin, that sums up his short tenure with the struggling Formula 1 team. It came, of all places, at Montreal-Trudeau International Airport in the hours after the Canadian Grand Prix where Alpine finished in ninth and tenth place.
As he shuffled through the terminal wearing full-team kit, he looked a stooped figure and was walking incredibly slowly with his Alpine-supplied rucksack on his back. An electric mobility vehicle drove even more slowly behind him, amber light flashing and, despite the driver repeatedly pressing the horn, Famin was oblivious to its presence.
