Alpine F1 Team

Season 2026

Alpine Racing Limited, currently racing as BWT Alpine F1 Team for sponsorship reasons, is the name under which the Enstone-based Formula One team has been competing since the start of the 2021 Formula One World Championship. Formerly named Renault F1 Team and owned by the French automotive company Groupe Renault as well as Renault–Nissan–Mitsubishi Alliance, the team was rebranded for 2021 to promote Renault's sports car brand, Alpine, and continued to serve as Renault's works team, a position the team kept until Renault pulled out of Formula One at the end of 2025. The team currently uses Mercedes engines, having previously done so as Lotus in 2015. The team is based in Enstone, Oxfordshire, England and competes with a French licence. The team currently fields Pierre Gasly and Franco Colapinto as its full-time drivers. In its current form as Alpine, the team's sole win was achieved by Esteban Ocon at the 2021 Hungarian Grand Prix.
