Forty-three years after its historic win and a few weeks after its podium finish at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, #alpine confirms the extension of its endurance programme. The brand will compete in the premier class from 2024 in LMDh.
Since Alpine's return to endurance #racing in 2013 in partnership with Signatech, the victories have come one after another. First in the European Le Mans Series (ELMS) with the drivers' and teams' titles in 2013 and 2014. Then on the world stage in the FIA WEC, with two titles (2016 and 2019) and three wins at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in the very competitive LMP2 category (2016, 2018 and 2019), plus a podium in the Hypercar category this year.
More than ever, #alpine wants to add new entries to its list of achievements. From 2024 onwards, #alpine will enter the LMDh, one of the two regulations of the Hypercar category. #alpine will field two cars designed around an Oreca chassis and, above all, an #alpine engine developed at Viry-Châtillon. The power unit will benefit from all the expertise acquired in Formula 1.
The complementarity between endurance #racing and Formula 1 is an important asset of Alpine's new endurance programme. In addition to the engine, the bodywork will benefit from Enstone's expertise in aerodynamics, a central element in motorsport. This engine, chassis and bodywork combination will benefit from all the technical expertise of Signatech and #alpine F1 Team to achieve a level of performance that will allow it to fight at the sharp end of the order.
