Renault to Cease F1 Engine Production After 2025, Alpine Eyes Mercedes Partnership

Renault's Viry-Chatillon facility will transition into an engineering center, with Alpine likely to use Mercedes power units from 2026.

Renault will stop producing Formula 1 engines after the 2025 season, ending its role as a works outfit.
Alpine's Viry-Chatillon factory will become 'Hypertech Alpine,' focusing on advanced automotive technologies and innovation.
The transition aims to repurpose the facility for projects like the Alpine Supercar and battery development while maintaining an F1 monitoring unit.
Employees affected by the shift will be offered positions within the new Hypertech Alpine center.
Despite staff protests and concerns over losing technological heritage, Alpine is in talks with Mercedes to supply engines starting in 2026.
