MODERATORS
Keep in mind he's mainly VP of Alpine Motorsports, and he's now switched his focus on reorganising the Viry plant (if they do sign with an engine manufacturer for 2026, not a done deal yet), hence why he's vacating the position.
The people that were let go were essentially deadwood (feel free to look them up), and a ton of key people were poached from Mercedes/RB/Ferrari. Otmar was simply the wrong hire, frankly there's a reason Lawrence Stroll didn't keep him.
Not sure why they're going for Oliver Oakes though, Jonathan Wheatley would've been a better fit imo, but we'll see.
He's back at Alpine Motorsports? I thought Luca De Meo took the interim when Famin became Team Principal
Not even close, De Meo is CEO of Renault Group. Philippe Krief is CEO of Alpine Cars subsidiary, and Bruno Famin has been VP of Alpine Motorsports since 2023.
