New AlphaTauri name still under wraps as FIA publishes 2024 F1 entry list - Autosport

Usually the publication of the list is the first official chance to see any new names, but sometimes teams agree with the FIA to wait due to the requirements of sponsors.

For the first time there are no driver number changes between seasons, so the entry list contains few novelties, other than the new name for the former Alfa Romeo team and a change of title sponsor at Aston Martin.

After four seasons as AlphaTauri, the Faenza team is moving on from its current name – with Racing Bulls widely tipped as the new choice – but it is not planning any further announcement until next year.

However speaking to Autosport last month, CEO Peter Bayer gave some insight into its plans.

“The identity will be generic,” he said. “The identity is what Toro Rosso would have been, and it’s moving closer to the Red Bull family again. But then it will appear with the naming rights partners.

“We will change the company name, we will change identity, logo, everything, a complete relaunch, complete rebrand.

“The name of the team, the identity, has been decided by the shareholders. And I need to carry it with me without being able to share, which is very difficult!”

Bayer also confirmed that the team will have new American sponsors from next year.

“We're on a good trajectory,” he said. “And because we have such good traction in the US at the moment, we found these two companies who like each other.

“We had a very, very good meeting with these two big new partners. And they understood each other really well. They sort of mingled immediately.

“We talked about when do we announce it? What do we do? And we said look, this is what usually happens, and we have the FIA entry form and we have the livery presentation. And then they had ideas.

“They started brainstorming so much that I got scared, actually! They have a couple of very big ideas. They're thinking big, bigger than we would probably have dared to think.”
