Alpine F1 Team is teaming up with Xbox for a special Indiana Jones-themed livery at the United States Grand Prix, celebrating the release of the Indiana Jones and the Great Circle video game. The car will feature a bold sunset orange design at the Circuit of the Americas (COTA), adding a unique flair to the race weekend. Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly will wear matching race suits designed for the occasion. The car’s one-off design incorporates details from the iconic film series, including an ancient map, red travel routes, and the game’s title prominently displayed.
Before the race, Alpine and the game launched a U.S. tour, transporting a mysterious artefact across iconic landmarks such as Las Vegas, Monument Valley, and the Bonneville Salt Flats, with the artefact arriving at COTA just in time for the race, boosting the excitement surrounding the event.

Alpine Team Principal Oliver Oakes said: 'Working with the Xbox team to bring alive the incredible Indiana Jones and the Great Circle livery for the United States Grand Prix has been fantastic. The new look will be right at home in the Austin setting this weekend. In the past year, our partnership with Xbox has reached new heights and this is our biggest activation yet. There’s even more to come and I’m looking forward to getting my hands on a copy of the game when it comes out.'
The Indiana Jones-themed livery isn't Alpine's first movie collaboration in 2024. At the Belgian Grand Prix, Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon raced with a Deadpool & Wolverine-inspired design.
