Manager brought in on temporary basis from overseeing Alpine’s motorsport division to run F1 team after Szafnauer axed a year ago now set to stand aside himself
Bruno Famin has announced that he will stand down as Alpine Formula 1 team principal at the end of August, with Hitech F2 and F3 boss Oliver Oakes expected as his replacement. Famin was originally hired by Alpine to oversee its engine division in early 2022 before he stepped up to become its motorsport vice president in mid-2023 and then its interim team principal when former squad boss Otmar Szafnauer was let go from the team a year ago. Famin carried on in the role in 2024.
“I think it would be much more useful for the company to dedicate my time, to concentrate my time to the Viry activities. “I mean all the other motorsport activities and to the transformation project – if it is confirmed – because it will be a huge impact for all the Viry people. “Let’s not forget that the guys in Viry are making an amazing job.
