To celebrate the release of the Deadpool & Wolverine film, the Formula One Alpine team will be sporting a special livery on its F1 cars at the Belgian Grand Prix.
Instead of their usual design—normally a black car featuring shades of blue and pink—Pierre Gasly, 28, and Esteban Ocon, 27, 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.
Alpine, with its one-off color scheme, is the latest team to secure a movie deal, but their Marvel Studios tie-up is no accident. Ryan Reynolds, who plays the masked Deadpool character, has heavily invested in the team.
According to the F1 site, 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.”
