Renault has filled the position at the head of the company following the sudden exit of Luca de Meo last month.
Renault has appointed François Provost as their new CEO, succeeding Luca De Meo who recently stepped down.
Provost comes to the role after serving as the company’s chief procurement, partnerships, and public affairs officer.
He expressed pride and gratitude for the appointment and thanked the President and the Board of Directors for their trust.
Provost emphasized his dedication to contributing to the development of Renault alongside employees, dealers, suppliers, and partners.
Renault’s involvement in F1, including fielding the Alpine team with Renault-built power units, has faced speculation following De Meo’s departure.
