Alpine have snaffled a key engineer away from Ferrari, appointing him to lead their power unit department...
Pierre Gasly races his Alpine A523 at the Circuit of the Americas during the United States Grand Prix.
Following on from the promotion of Bruno Famin to interim team principal following the departure of Otmar Szafnauer during the Belgian Grand Prix three months ago, Alpine have moved to bolster their power unit department at Viry-Chatillion. Meignan had been Head of Department at Ferrari up until very recently, having worked at Maranello since February 2020.
Meignan’s professional portfolio states that, during his time at Mercedes during the period in which their engine was the F1 benchmark, he helped to “improve the quality of engineering by providing trusted, high-quality simulation tools and techniques, as well as improving the understanding of the PU by providing high quality existing and new advanced measurements tools and techniques.
