Born a few hours after the legendary finish of the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans, Phillipe Sinault's destiny was quickly linked to motorsport.

Philippe was a driver in single-seaters and graduated from Bordeaux University with a degree in communications before discovering his gift for developing programmes with the support of recognised partners. In 1990, he founded Groupe Signature with his business partner Jean-Pierre Tallan, joined by Lionel Chevalier. Very quickly, the group's motorsport division racked up successes and national and international single-seater titles, helping to launch the careers of renowned drivers.

In 2009, Philippe took Signatech into endurance racing, with a first appearance in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. After a promising start and an Intercontinental Le Mans Cup title with Nissan in 2011, Alpine entrusted him with developing the brand's reputation in the discipline.

Philippe quickly accomplished his mission. He won the European Le Mans Series in 2013 and 2014, followed by three victories at the 24 Hours of Le Mans (in 2016, 2018, and 2019) and two world titles (in 2016 and 2018-2019). With decades of success in motorsport, Philippe Sinault continues to lead the Alpine Endurance Team at the highest level.

 

“With Bruno and Nicolas, we wanted to build on the foundations laid by the previous project, while also giving it a new dimension. Charles Milesi and Ferdinand Habsburg have been pillars of the programme since its inception and play a key role in the development of the A424.

Jules Gounon and Frédéric Makowiecki brought real added value from the outset, both through their experience and their high standards. The arrival of António Félix da Costa and Victor Martins completes this team with committed, talented individuals who are fully aligned with the project's ambition.

We now have a solid, complementary group focused on a common goal: to continue improving the team and the car, race after race. The team spirit is excellent, and we are convinced that this momentum will allow us to reach new heights.
