Alpine A525

Renault's final Formula One engine powered this Alpine, which finished last in the 2025 standings.

About the Alpine A525

The A525 was Alpine's fifth car since the rebrand from Renault, and the last to use a Renault engine before the manufacturer ended its power unit programme and Alpine switched to Mercedes for 2026. It was also the first Alpine to use Eni fuels and lubricants, and its livery brought back the Bleu de France of the A521. Pierre Gasly led the team, while the second seat passed from rookie Jack Doohan to Franco Colapinto from the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix on a rotating basis. Gasly's sixth place at the British Grand Prix was its best result, and Alpine finished last in the Constructors' Championship with 22 points, Team Enstone's worst finish.
