Alpine to race in Deadpool & Wolverine colors at Spa

Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds are the stars of Deadpool & Wolverine, with Reynolds being part of the consortium of investors that bought into Alpine injecting $220-Million in the process.

After a slight improvement in form since Canada, Alpine have dropped back since the British Grand Prix in which they failed to score points, the same applying to last week's Hungarian Grand Prix.

The French Formula 1 team, whose future is unclear, are currently eighth in the 2024 Constructors' Championship with nine points.

The team's drivers Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon previewed their upcoming race this weekend at Spa in Alpine's race preview.

Gasly said: "We are aiming for a much better weekend in Spa to see us into the summer shutdown. We went well last year, finishing third in the Sprint, which was an amazing result.

"It's a standard weekend format this time around and after the tough previous events, we are incredibly determined to perform the best we can. I love racing this track, it's one of my favourites, but the feelings I have here are always going to be contrasting.

"The first half of 2024 has been difficult for everyone, at the factory and at the track, but we're in a much better place than we were in Bahrain, and we can improve more," Gasly concluded.

Ocon, who was announced as a Haas driver in 2025, added: "After racing in Formula 1 for a number of years, it is still an incredible feeling to be racing at Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps where I made my Formula 1 debut back in 2016.

"It is a classic track and the longest on the calendar, which makes it a unique test for us drivers with its long straights and variety of corners. The weather always comes into play in Belgium especially considering the size of the track and how conditions can vary from one section of the circuit to another.

"This means that strategy will be key for the race, and we need to work as one to make the right calls and have a successful weekend," Ocon concluded.
