Alpine “deserved” to take a long-awaited first outright triumph in the FIA World Endurance Championship in a red-flagged Sebring 1000 Miles, say the French marque’s drivers.

本赛季的赛百灵1000英里大赛，在红旗下过早得结束了。但这并不妨碍雷诺阿尔派的车手们庆祝他们的WEC首冠，法国车厂认为他们配得上这场迟到的胜利。

It followed a frustrating 2021 season for the Signatech-run outfit, which managed a pair of second places in its first season of running in the top Hypercar category last year with its Oreca-designed ex-Rebellion R-13, but otherwise failed to challenge Toyota.

对车队来说，过去的2021赛季是艰难的，R13赛车虽然是第一次参加WEC最高组别，也拿下了两次分站亚军，但他们完全没办法挑战丰田。

Vaxiviere was at the wheel of the Alpine, more than a minute clear of Sebastien Buemi’s #8 Toyota, when the race was stopped for a second time with around an hour to go due to thunderstorms in the area.

当比赛由于天气原因，在还剩一个钟头时便第二次被迫暂停时，瓦克西维埃里驾驶的雷诺赛车已然领先身后布埃米的丰田8号车多达一分钟。

An attempt to restart the race was made, but the weather failed to improve and a result was finally declared with around 15 minutes left on the clock.

等到距离比赛结束还剩一刻钟时，暴风雨依然不见好转。赛会眼看恢复比赛无望，只能宣布比赛结束，并确认比赛结果有效。

“It was a bit stressful for me at the end in the car, so I’m really happy,” said Vaxiviere. “We've deserved it since last year, we were struggling a bit to win a race, so it’s really good to motivate everyone as well, so really happy.”

“最后阶段我在赛车里都觉得紧张了，所以现在我很开心，”瓦克西维埃里说，“从去年开始，我们就值得一胜，但为了达到目标，我们表现得很挣扎。今天的冠军能够激励大家继续努力，真的太高兴了。”

The first red flag of the race came after Jose Maria Lopez suffered a major crash in the #7 Toyota, which had the effect of resetting the battle between the Alpine – which had pitted not long before the stoppage – and the #8 car.

由于洛佩兹在驾驶7号丰田赛车时引发重大撞车事故，赛会发布了第一次红旗暂停了比赛，这也直接将雷诺同8号丰田赛车之间的争夺拉回了同一起跑线。早知道在此之前，雷诺才刚完成了一次进站。

Sebring marked the first overall victory for a team other than Toyota in the WEC since the 2020 race at the Circuit of the Americas, which was won by Rebellion Racing.

本次赛百灵1000也是自睿百灵车队在2020年美洲赛道夺冠后，又一次有非丰田车队夺冠。
