Alpine F1 is in turmoil again. In this episode, we break down the stunning exit of team principal Oliver Oakes after just nine months, replaced by none other than the infamous Flavio Briatore. From boardroom politics to sponsor-driven driver swaps, this isn't just another leadership shuffle—it's a full-blown identity crisis. Franco Colapinto’s sudden promotion over Jack Doohan adds fuel to the controversy, leaving fans and insiders questioning who’s really pulling the strings at Enstone. Is performance still the priority, or is Alpine now driven by money, influence, and desperation?
With Pierre Gasly openly frustrated, Doohan seemingly blindsided, and Oakes potentially being lined up for a top role elsewhere in the paddock, the situation is rapidly spiraling. We unpack what Briatore’s return means for the team’s future, the whispers of a failed Hitech takeover, and why this latest chapter could define Alpine’s fate in F1.
