Alpine Boosts F1 Midfield Fight With Crucial Hiring
In the middle of their fierce midfield battle with the Racing Bulls, the Alpine F1 Team has announced the hiring of Mike Elliott as its new Chief Technical Officer. Elliott isn't replacing an existing Alpine CTO, as the position itself is newly created.
As mentioned in the announcement, Elliott will be at the Enstone factory to supervise the team's technical and engineering functions. Alpine's Executive Technical Director David Sanchez, who also had stints with Renault, Ferrari, and McLaren, is expected to report to Elliott.
