The Alpine A524 is a Formula One racing car designed and developed by the Alpine F1 Team competing in the 2024 Formula One World Championship.[2] It is the fourth Formula One car entered by Alpine since rebranding from Renault. The A524 is being driven by Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon, who is in his final season with the team.[3] Reserve driver duties are handled by former Formula 2 driver and Alpine junior Jack Doohan. Initially considered to be the worst-running car of the field at the beginning of the year, the team's results have steadily improved thoughout the season, managing to score Alpine's first fastest lap at the United States Grand Prix, and the team's first double podium at the São Paulo Grand Prix.
