Alpine has announced a restructuring of its technical department following the departure of executive director Marcin Budkowski last month.
Pat Fry has been promoted to Chief Technical Officer and will be in charge of all major decisions from a technical point of view while his former role as technical director will be filled by Matt Harman, who will oversee both chassis and power unit development.
Fry joined the team in 2020 after a short spell at McLaren and has a long and varied career in F1, stretching back to 1987 when he joined an earlier iteration of the Alpine team, then known as Benetton.
