Renault-owned Alpine are going through a period of 'pain and trouble' evidenced by high-level departures from the Formula One team, Williams boss James Vowles told reporters at the Belgian Grand Prix.
He was speaking after Williams, also former champions emerging from a tough period in their history, announced the hiring of Alpine's chief technical officer Pat Fry to take on the same role.
Vowles said his first approach was made in January after starting in the job at Williams and he finally convinced Fry, who has had senior roles at McLaren and Ferrari, in April to make the move. He will start at Grove in November. On the same day Fry was announced by Williams, Alpine issued a statement saying that team boss Otmar Szafnauer and sporting director Alan Permane were leaving.
