StaffAlpine Racing have announced that they have mutually parted ways with their Director of Racing Expansion Projects, Davide Brivio, after the 59-year-old spent three years in the role.
Brivio had taken up the role at Alpine ahead of the 2021 Formula One (F1) season, managing the Alpine Academy among other responsibilities.
With Brivio leaving, Alpine have confirmed that Julian Rouse will be looking after the Alpine Academy for the time being.
Alpine also bid goodbye to their Team Principal, Otmar Szafnauer, and Sporting Director, Alan Permane, earlier this year. Bruno Famin is the Interim Team Principal for the French outfit.
Bruno Famin, VP Motorsports, Alpine Racing, commented:
“Firstly, we would like to thank Davide for his hard work and commitment over the last three seasons. His experience in motorsports has been extremely valuable, especially in the development and progression of the Alpine Academy. Davide’s wish is to leave Alpine to pursue other opportunities and we have accepted his desire by mutually agreeing to part ways. We extend our best wishes to him in his next chapter of an already impressive career in motorsports.“
Brivio added:
“It has been a proud chapter in my motorsport career to be involved in Formula 1 with Alpine. I would like to thank Alpine for the opportunity to experience Formula 1 which was my desire and also for the chance to pass on some of my experience in motorsport onto its young drivers in the Alpine Academy. I wish the team and the Academy the best in the future and I’m sure we will see many young drivers go on to achieve fantastic things in their careers. To play a small part in some of that success will certainly be something I will cherish. I am grateful to Alpine for accommodating my wish to pursue other opportunities which may (and I hope that they will) arise in the future.“
