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.

Strategy call doesn't pay off

Formula One

November 27, 2024

Bottas finished 18th in the Las Vegas Grand Prix F1 race at the Las Vegas Strip Circuit on Sunday.

ANALYSIS
Bottas didn't show much one-lap pace in qualifying, made worse by a five-place grid penalty due to exceeding the limit of power unit components. Kick Sauber began the race attempting a one-stop strategy, though the tires wore faster than anticipated and forced two stops. As a result, Bottas wasn't able to make much of an impression on the field.
