Moreover, the additional revenue generated through this partnership will be reinvested in the team, advancing the Mountain Climber plan aimed at elevating Alpine F1’s facilities and equipment to compete with the top teams.

Focused Investment: Alpine F1’s Expansion Plans

It’s important to note that this investment is solely directed towards the Formula 1 team, with Renault’s engine division remaining under the ownership of the Renault Group. As part of a broader strategy, Alpine has set ambitious targets of reaching €8 billion in revenue by 2030 and achieving break-even status by 2026.
