GALLERY: Alpine unveil special Deadpool & Wolverine livery ahead of Belgian Grand Prix
Alpine have revealed a striking one-off livery ahead of the Belgian Grand Prix weekend, inspired by the upcoming Deadpool & Wolverine film.
Instead of their usual design, Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon will be driving cars adorned in red and black, complete with yellow claw marks, in a nod to the two Marvel superheroes depicted in the new movie.
Deadpool actor Ryan Reynolds was part of a group of investors who were behind a €200m cash injection in Alpine last year, to further the team's ambitions in Formula 1.
The Enstone-based squad will be hoping their new look can help them bounce back from another tough weekend last time out in Hungary. Gasly and Ocon qualified on the back row after a strategic error from the team resulted in them not putting a final lap in during Q1.
Gasly then started the race from the pit lane due to set-up and power unit element changes being made to his car, but he was subsequently forced to retire from the race due to a suspected hydraulics issue. Ocon, meanwhile would come home in a lowly 18th place.
