F1 News: Alpine Unveils Bold A524 Car Ahead Of 2024 Season
The Alpine F1 team has revealed the A524 for the upcoming 2024 F1 season, becoming the fifth team to reveal its new look for the year.
Releasing the car during a live event, it features a mainly carbon-fibre design with bold blue and pink accents. The team also confirmed that there will be a completely pink livery for some races during the 2024 season. The all-pink livery was also revealed by the team in Enstone, showing a similar design with the blue substituted with pink. This comes after many hints on social media of a pink camouflage design, however, this was clearly a decoy for excited fans.
Team principal Bruno Famin confirmed that the A524 is "completely new from back to front".
The team heads into 2024 with the hopes of turning things around from 2023 in which they had many personnel changes including the departure of team principal Otmar Szafnauer and sporting director Alan Permane. The team also struggled with keeping up with the top 5 teams with some upgrade issues. As well as improved performance in 2024, the team will also be looking to secure its driver line-up for 2025 as both Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly's contracts are due to expire at the end of the year.
As well as revealing the livery for the A524, Alpine also unveiled its 2024 contender for the World Endurance Championship during the same event.
The next car reveal will be Visa Cash App RB which is due to take place on February 8.
