Sahara Force India Formula One Team drivers, Nico Hulkenberg and Sergio Perez, will arrive in Monaco with new-look Alpinestars race suits as the team extends its long-standing partnership with the Italian clothing supplier.
Sporting the team’s new black identity, the suits are made from advanced, ultra-lightweight fabrics and represent the perfect union of technology and performance. These hi-tech products guarantee both the highest safety standards and crucially, breathability and comfort for the drivers; a key performance factor in the high stress environment of Formula 1.
The new suits also reinforce the mutual commitment to performance between Sahara Force India and Alpinestars, a partnership that has seen the Italian clothing company supply the team with all of its technical race apparel and footwear, including suits, boots, gloves and under layers, since 2008. Otmar Szafnauer, Chief Operating Officer of Sahara Force India says, “We are delighted to continue our association with Alpinestars who do a fantastic job of supplying us with all our technical wear.
Alpinestars are an iconic and respected brand with a history of innovation and an unwavering commitment to excellence, and we at Sahara Force India identify strongly with these values. The new suits match performance with style, an approach that is in line with our brand’s evolution in the last twelve months.” Gabriele Mazzarolo, President and CEO of Alpinestars says, “Alpinestars has been innovating performance products for the world’s top motorsports athletes for over 50 years.
The suits that we develop for Sahara Force India’s drivers and race team are state-of-the-art and offer performance-enhancing technology which will help Nico and Sergio, both in Monte Carlo and as we continuously develop our technology throughout the rest of the season.”
