Alpine F1 sign Kush Maini

BWT Alpine F1 Team have roped in Indian racer Kush Maini to their Academy Programme. The Formula 2 racer for Campos Racing will, therefore, join the likes of Jack Doohan and Victor Martins.

Maini is currently in his debut F2 season and has already earned a podium to his name as he finished third in the Australian Sprint race.

Kush Maini said:

I am super excited to be joining the Alpine Academy. It’s a dream come true to be associated with a team like BWT Alpine F1 Team, where I can learn and grow to hopefully one day be ready to take the step into Formula 1. A massive thank you to Alpine for believing in me and giving me this opportunity.

Julian Rouse, Alpine F1 Team Interim Sporting Director, commented:

We are happy to welcome Kush into the Alpine Academy. He is a young talent who we believe has strong potential and will be a great asset to our driver development programme. The Alpine Academy will enter its ninth year in 2024 and currently features nine drivers of eight nationalities, spanning four different series from FIA Formula 2 through to European Karting.

The continual expansion of the Academy’s talent pool runs in parallel to the expansion of our facilities at Enstone with the development of our new state-of-the-art training and testing facilities, the AHPC, underway.
