Alpine F1 has hosted MotoGP team Pramac Racing at its factory in Enstone, despite the facility currently being closed for the summer break.
The Formula 1 summer break is now in full swing. During this mandatory shutdown period, teams cannot work on their cars and can only carry out some factory improvements and maintenance over the two-week break.
Meanwhile, the MotoGP season resumes this weekend at Silverstone following its summer break. As a result, Pramac Racing riders Toprak Razgatlioglu and Jack Miller visited Alpine's Enstone factory. Alpine began its partnership with Pramac ahead of the 2025 season.
Fabio Briatore said: "We took the unique opportunity to host Prima Pramac Yamaha MotoGP Team at Enstone on Thursday as they race in Silverstone this weekend. After all, Formula One and MotoGP have a likeness and now the same owner in Liberty Media so it's a great moment to show one another our worlds. I am a great friend of Paolo [Campinoti], team owner of Pramac, and I wish him, his team and his riders the very best at Silverstone this weekend."

Campinoti added: "Firstly, many thanks to Flavio and BWT Alpine Formula One Team for the opportunity to visit Enstone. I have heard many stories of this great site and we are all well aware of the success it has had in Formula One with some of the sport's most famous names and drivers.
"To see Fernando Alonso's championship winning car was absolutely fantastic and I know everyone at Prima Pramac Yamaha MotoGP Team took great pleasure in seeing the factory. There is a lot we can learn from Formula One and now we look forward to racing this weekend at Silverstone."
