Like many celebrities, the Kansas City Chiefs stars, Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelece, have diversified their investments. Patrick Mahomes, aside from owning stakes in local sports teams like the Kansas City Royals, Sporting KC, and the KC Current, has launched Sports Coffee. However, his and Travis Kelce's investment in Formula One represents a newer chapter in their business ventures, one that many fans have followed globally because of how big F1 is.

In 2022, they became part owners of the BWT Alpine F1 team, which was formerly known as Renault. Since their investment, both have been actively engaged with the team, going to races in places like Miami.

BWT Alpine F1 team is not as popular or decorated of a team as teams like Ferrari, Mercedes, McLaren, or Red Bull, but does have a storied history in F1, boasting multiple championship victories and a legacy of nurturing elite drivers.

Last season, Alpine started the season slowly but finished very strong, with their top driver Pierre Gasly finishing on the podium alongside his running mate Esteban Ocon, but also had some strong points finishes as well, and he would have had another one in the Las Vegas Grand Prix had his car not been going so fast that the engine caused the var to burn a hole through the side wall, but that's a different story for a different day.

They finished sixth of ten teams in F1, which is good enough to be labeled as the second-best of the rest. In 2025, they will be looking to become the best of the rest, hopefully leaping over Aston Martin.

And, they will look good doing it too.

Alpine debuts new livery at F1 75

On Tuesday, Formula One hosted F1 75, a new event to show off all of the new uniforms, kits, and liveries of all the cars. And, you can say it was a huge success. 

Held in London, there were tons of celebrities there, and the event looked to be a blast, as a week from now the teams will be hitting the track for practice testing. When Alpine debuted their new livery, the pace went wild, as they definitely had the best one.

Their colors are blue and pink, and they did that combo justice with the livery, doing something they hadn't done before, but making the car look similar to their 2022 livery, but an inverse of the colors.

I'm sure this paint job will make Mahomes and Kelce proud. It was certainly better than Ferrari's livery, which happens to employ Lewis Hamilton, a minority owner of the Denver Broncos.
