According to reports, OnlyFans is going to become the sponsor for the Alpine F1 team.

OnlyFans As Alpine F1 Team’s Sponsor
This news comes after the announcement of the Alpine team shutting down their engine department in Viry and also replacing Bruno Famin as their team principal.
Some fans still think that the whole thing is a joke, but some are convinced that there’s something wrong with it, as there’s a debate including Andretti’s attempts to join F1.
Alpine has also announced their new team principal, Oliver Oakes, who is going to take over for Bruno Famin once the summer break is over. Oakes already has hands-on experience with the Hitech team. Oakes is well known for his leadership and successful racing history as well.
Oakes said,
“I am extremely grateful to Luca de Meo and Flavio Briatore for this opportunity to lead BWT Alpine F1 Team back to competitiveness. The team has talented people and excellent resources at its core, and I am confident that we can accomplish a great deal together during the remainder of this season and the longer term.”
Flavio Briatore said,
“I am delighted that we have been able to recruit Oli Oakes for our Formula 1 project. Oli is highly talented with a great record of leadership and success in racing…His move into this role is a great example of the strength and belief we have in our team and by young, upcoming people, and I’m excited to work closely with him with a joint focus on moving up the grid and winning races.”
Oakes being in the Alpine team is marked as a considerable achievement in the history of Alpine, as the team has struggled this season.
Alpine only scored 11 points from 14 races and the Sprint races as well. The executive advisor of the team and the head man also expressed their optimism that Oakes will help the team get their ranks back up to the top again.
