French Formulation 1 workforce Alpine is about to endure extra administration change, with Davide Brivio departing.
Key factors:
- Davide Brivio joined Alpine in 2021 as racing director
- The Italian oversaw the workforce’s younger driver program
- Alpine has had a number of personnel modifications in 2023
Brivio, who held the position of director of racing growth initiatives with the workforce, oversaw a number of initiatives together with their younger driver program.
The Italian who made a reputation for himself as a workforce supervisor in World Superbikes and MotoGP, joined the French F1 outfit as racing director in 2021.
“Davide’s want is to depart Alpine to pursue different alternatives and we’ve accepted his want by mutually agreeing to half methods,” Alpine Motorsport vice-president Bruno Famin mentioned in a press release.
Brivio’s departure follows a number of extra backroom departures from Alpine earlier this yr.
Otmar Szafnauer and Alan Permane, who had been the workforce principal and sporting director, left after the Belgian Grand Prix.
Alpine had a disappointing season in 2023, ending sixth within the constructors championship — its lowest end result since 2017 when it raced as Renault.
The outfit, which capabilities as a works workforce for automotive big Renault, has struggled to cement itself close to the entrance of the sphere.
Alpine might be hoping to solidify its backroom over the break to enrich their all-French driver duo of Pierre Gasley and Esteban Ocon, who each boast F1 grand prix wins of their careers.
