After Mercedes announced earlier on Tuesday that they would sign a huge deal with adidas, bringing in the German brand as their sportswear partners, Alpine have done the same. The French team have struck a deal with Castore, with the British brand now becoming the 'Offical Team Kit Partner'.
Alpine "pleased" to have Castore on board
2024 was a season of ups and downs for the French team, with the start of the year looking extremely worrying for both Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly. However, come the end of the season, they amassed 65 points and finished sixth in the constructors' championship, aided hugely by the fantastic double podium at the Brazilian Grand Prix. Ocon left the French team and will join Haas in 2025, with former reserve driver Jack Doohan now making the step up. Team principal Oliver Oakes will be hoping that his team will be able to continue the upward trajectory he brought since joining in the middle of the season.
Now, they will have the big British clothing brand Castore as their sportswear supplier for 2025. In a press release from the French team, they explained that Castore will "supply trackside and factory teamwear as Official Team Kit Partner" of Alpine, as well as operate their online store.
Tom Beahon, co-founder and co-CEO of Castore had his say on the deal between the two, saying, "This partnership with BWT Alpine Formula One Team is an incredibly exciting development for Castore. We are really looking forward to seeing Castore’s wings represented in a competitive environment with BWT Alpine Formula One Team next season."
