Flavio Briatore takes over team chiefs at Alpine

Vienna-Oliver Oakes is no longer the head of the Formula 1 team Alpine. The 37-year-old Brit, who had only taken over the position last July, resigned with immediate effect. Both sides have not yet given reasons for the separation. In terms of interim, Flavio Briatore will take on the tasks. The 75-year-old Italian still retains his work as a consultant.
