When Esteban Ocon and Fernando Alonso try their hand at graffiti

If we knew the genius of Fernando Alonso andEsteban Ocon at the wheel of a car, the two pilots Alpine also have some beautiful street art layouts. Color bomb in hand and mask on their noses, the two men appeared alongside the artist Felipe Pantone, in the Mexico paddock, to create a huge graffiti covering the panels of the garageAlpine.

After attending the Monaco Grand Prix this season, the Spanish-Argentinian artist accompanied the French team to Mexico to create a work of street art. Inspired by the colors of the Mexican flag (red, white and green), Felipe Pantone revisited the logo ofAlpine F1 team.

The creation and production of this urban painting took less than an hour of work, with the participation of Ocon and Alonso to add a final touch. “It was great to have Fernando Alonso and Esteban Ocon helping me, two real speed experts! enthused the artist Felipe Pantone. I am very happy to have partnered with Alpine after our first collaboration in Monaco.” 

The Mexican Grand Prix, on the other hand, was a little less joyful for Alpine. Starting from the back of the grid, Esteban Ocon finished in 13th place, while his Spanish teammate grabbed the two small points from 9th position. The French team was especially caught up in the Manufacturers' championship by Alpha Tauri, because of the good 4th place obtained in the race by Pierre Gasly. The two teams have 106 points each with four rounds remaining.
