Alpine launches Rac(H)er, an ambitious programme for equal opportunities in motorsport and the automotive industry

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

  • From #racing drivers to engineering and technical roles, the Rac(H)er programme lays out a clear and defined roadmap to increase the diversity of talent within #alpine.
  • Alpine can no longer afford to deprive itself of a pool of female talent, whose skills and experience are a real performance differentiator.
  • The programme is transformative and forms part of #renault Group's long-term goal, as laid out in the Renaulution strategic plan introduced by Group CEO Luca de Meo in 2021.
  • The lack of female drivers in F1 highlights the issue at large; #bwtalpinef1team will also introduce a comprehensive programme to increase diversity, including within its driver roster.

Alpine today commits to increasing diversity within its own workforce. The Rac(H)er programme is designed to reinforce meritocracy across genders in all areas of the company, from technical functions to #racing and competition. By doing so, #alpine will fully leverage the complete and complementary skills of the available workforce.

The programme breaks down into several sections as follows:

  • A programme to raise awareness of inclusion issues internally throughout the entire #alpine Business Unit. We aim to create equal opportunities for all genders.
  • A motor #racing section underpinned by research carried out by the Paris Brain Institute to appreciate what it takes to be a top-class #racing driver. This programme will also include the deconstruction of stereotypes using research with the funding of a scientific study to definitively break down all the pseudo-scientific alleged hurdles to F1 female competition (fitness, cognitive). By partnering with several training organisations, #alpine will establish a specific development programme with dedicated financial means to lead the first woman into consistent F1 competition.
  • The launch of a fund, open to participation by all, to finance female talent within motorsport: #alpine is committed to establishing the right financial package and also finding sponsors.
  • Our education and support drive. Backed by our female ambassadors, we plan to go into schools to boost awareness and interest among girls about motor #racing and car industry jobs in general.
  • The establishment of a long-term advocacy programme, engaging all relevant stakeholders in the motorsport and automotive industries in this transformative process.
