Season 2025

The Alpine team faced a major technical crisis in 2024 that led to the drivers finishing Grands Prix stably at the back of the field. After an internal revolution, with the farewell of all the top figures and the arrival of Flavio Briatore as sporting advisor and David Sanchez as technical director, the updates introduced towards the end of the season have significantly improved performance.

Next season will be transitional, however, as the single-seaters will still be powered by Renault Power Units, which have a significant performance deficit compared to the other engines. In 2026 the team will stop producing its own power units and will rely on Mercedes ones, at the same time the Alpine Hypertech centre will become fully operational, fundamental for innovation and technological development in view of the next major regulatory change.

French driver Pierre Gasly has been confirmed for this season, while Ocon has been replaced by rookie Jack Doohan, although some rumours suggest that there could be changes in the line-up during the year, with Franco Colapinto set to take over from the Australian driver.

At the O2 Arena in London on Feb. 18, the team unveiled the livery of the new single-seater in the presence of drivers Pierre Gasly and Jack Doohan.

History

Renault F1 is a French Formula 1 racing team based in Enstone, United Kingdom.  Since 2022 it has been entered in the Formula 1 World Championship under the name BWT Alpine F1 Team, based on a name change in 2021 and for sponsorship reasons.

It has been present in the top category in three distinct phases from 1977 to 1985 with a full team that introduced the turbocharged engine innovation; from 2002 to 2011 again with its own team, after taking over the Benetton team whose structure and headquarters it retained at Enstone in the UK; and since 2016 again as a full-time constructor, after the reacquisition of the Lotus F1 Team that had replaced it from 2012 (with Renault becoming only an engine supplier until 2014), under the name Renault Sport F1 Team, changed in 2018 to Renault Sport Formula One Team.

It won its first 15 Grands Prix between 1977 and 1985, but the world titles only came after its return to Formula One itself, in 2005 and 2006 with Fernando Alonso. At the end of the 2010 season, Genii Capital bought the French team outright and in 2011 it raced under a British licence under the name Lotus Renault GP, given its sponsorship agreement with Lotus Cars.

From 1989 to 1997 and in 2001 it was only present as an engine supplier (6 consecutive titles from 1992 to 1997).
