BWT Alpine F1 Team gears up for its fourth season in Formula 1 in the 2024 FIA Formula 1 World Championship led by its dynamic, all-French driver line-up, Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly for the second consecutive year.
The unveiling of the A524 Formula 1 car marks a change in philosophy and approach to the team’s ambitions in Formula 1, guided by Team Principal Bruno Famin with its technical teams led by Technical Directors Matt Harman in Enstone and Eric Meignan in Viry-Châtillon.

The A524 is a brand-new concept created for the next two seasons and is marked by innovative solutions as a result of learnings from previous iterations. The bold approach will allow the team to apply a stronger development path across the next two campaigns before the radical change in technical regulations following that.

For 2024, the team is loyally supported by title partner BWT and its premium partners bp, Castrol, and Renault E-Tech. As a result, the livery has been designed in collaboration with contemporary artist Felipe Pantone to bring a fresh and unique vision to the car design. Using black as its core, the colors are an embodiment of traditional Alpine blue, the predominant color for the campaign, matched with the now world-renowned pink colors of BWT. The livery will be inverted to be pink dominated at eight rounds of the 2024 season.
