Franz Tost: “Every beautiful story has an end”
Franz Tost - Team Principal AlphaTauri F1 Team
You have been at the head of this team since 2005. Are you leaving on your own or was it a choice that was imposed on you?
It's my decision. I had been thinking about it for two years already, and I spoke about it regularly with Dietrich Mateschitz (co-founder of the empire Red Bull died in October 2022. Editor’s note). The reason is simple… I’m 67! When I was younger, I always told myself that if I had the chance to occupy a leadership position like today, then I would not hold on to the seat, and I would cede the position to people more young, more talented, more motivated and more creative. It's time for me to say goodbye to F1, a sport that I love very much. Every good story has an ending. And with the recruitment of Peter Bayer (former FIA general secretary.
