Alpine’s Shocking Move: Director Oliver Oakes Abruptly Dismissed After Miami Grand Prix

In a shocking turn of events, Alpine has announced the abrupt departure of Team Principal Oliver Oakes following the Miami Grand Prix. Oakes, who joined the team in July 2024, saw Alpine clinch a commendable sixth place in the Team Championship under his leadership. The British former racing driver and Hitech Grand Prix team manager has parted ways with Alpine effective immediately.

Alpine currently finds itself in a lackluster 9th place in the team standings after Miami, with only seven points to their name, narrowly ahead of Kick Sauber by just one point. The future of Jack Doohan, who failed to score any points and retired in the first lap of the Grand Prix, hangs in the balance.

In a brief statement, the team confirmed the acceptance of Oliver Oakes’ resignation, with immediate effect. Flavio Briatore, who will retain his role as Executive Advisor, will take over Oakes’ responsibilities moving forward.

The team expressed gratitude towards Oakes for his efforts in securing Alpine’s sixth-place finish in the 2024 Constructors’ Championship and stated that no further comments would be provided on the matter. The big question now remains: who will step in to fill Oakes’ shoes, joining the likes of Otmar Szafnauer and Bruno Famin as recent departures from Alpine’s team principal position.
