Renault Group, Eni and BWT Alpine Formula One Team come together in new strategic partnership
20 February 2025
BWT Alpine Formula One Team and Eni are delighted to announce the return of Eni to the FIA Formula 1 World Championship, as the Italian company becomes the team’s Official Energy and Fuel Partner on a multi-year agreement.
The announcement marks a return of Eni to an Enstone-affiliated team since the brand’s last involvement with a team in Formula One with Benetton in 2000. The team will collaborate with Eni to activate its Enilive brand at select races throughout the 24-race season.
As a Premium Partner of the team, Eni branding will be visible on the A525, the team’s challenger for the 2025 FIA Formula 1 World Championship, and on the race overalls and helmets of its full roster of drivers, which will be unveiled at the F175 Launch Event at the O2 Arena, London, on February 18.
Eni’s presence will further extend to the pit-stop crew and throughout the entire BWT Alpine Formula One Team ecosystem and racing environment, which includes a future collaboration aimed at assessing and analysing innovations in fuel technologies and the development of bio-gasoline for racing at the pinnacle of motorsport.
