Former FIA executive Peter Bayer will join the team as chief executive officer later this year, while Franz Tost will step down from the role of team principal at the end of the 2023 season. Laurent Mekies, currently sporting director at Ferrari, will join Scuderia AlphaTauri as its new team principal at a date to be confirmed.
