Alfa Romeo Returns to Formula 1 in 2018

Alfa Romeo will return to Formula 1 after more than 30 years away from the sport. The Italian brand owned by Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) signed a multi-year technical and commercial partnership agreement with Swiss Sauber F1 Team for participation in the F1 world championship beginning with the 2018 season.

The single-seaters will sport the distinctive colors and logo of Alfa Romeo, the team’s Title Sponsor, and will be equipped with 2018 Ferrari power units. The official name will be Alfa Romeo Sauber F1 Team.
