Just as Alpine made the decision to run a different car than usual in the first two Grands Prix of the season, which will take place in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia , Fernando Alonso has made the same decision with one of the most representative aspects for a pilot.

However, to reach an agreement, the A522 will compete in pink livery in the first two races of 2022.
That same movement has been followed by the Spanish rider of the French structure, who this Thursday, March 17, has shown for the first time the helmet with which he will compete for the next two weeks at least, a helmet that, unlike the one presented last 22 February before the pre-season tests in Barcelona, it shows pink details and the BWT logo in the area where the Spanish flag was previously located.
Thus the blue and pink case of Fernando Alonso for F1 2022:
