SINGAPORE, SINGAPORE - SEPTEMBER 14: Valtteri Bottas of Finland and Alfa Romeo F1 and Zhou Guanyu

On the eve of the Singapore Grand Prix weekend, Alfa Romeo confirmed their line-up for the 2024 season, with Zhou Guanyu re-signing for another year alongside Valtteri Bottas. F1 Correspondent Lawrence Barretto explains why they’ve stuck rather than twisted…
