Alpine says 2024 F1 car will be “front-to-back” new
Alpine experienced a decline in performance this season, dropping from fourth to sixth in the world championship. The team has acknowledged that there is limited potential in further developing the current car and is instead focusing on making significant changes for next year’s model. Additionally, Alpine, like other teams, faces the challenge of creating a car for 2024 that will also serve as the foundation for the 2025 contender, as research and development efforts will shift towards the new regulations in 2026. The Technical Director, Matt Harman, admits that the team did not make as much progress with this year’s car as they had hoped and recognizes the need for a completely new car for the following year. The A523 had difficulty finding its optimal performance range, and the team is working on expanding that window for improved performance.
