BWT Alpine Formula One Team, in collaboration with Official Partner Xbox, will celebrate the return of legendary adventurer Indiana Jones™ with a bold, special edition livery at the United States Grand Prix in Austin.
The legendary archaeologist is back in the new first-person, cinematic action-adventure game Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, published by Bethesda Softworks and developed by MachineGames in collaboration with Lucasfilm Games. Players will travel the world as Indiana Jones in an all-new story full of whip-cracking action and intriguing puzzles.
The team will celebrate the Indiana Jones and the Great Circle upcoming release with a new look including a one-off car livery and themed driver race suits. The A524 will don a sunset orange design, inspired by the iconic franchise logo with details including an ancient map and red travel routes as showcased in the film series with the title of the game emblazoned on the vehicle.
Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly will live up to their roles during the race weekend in Austin, Texas, wearing special edition race overalls. These have been designed to showcase Indy’s globetrotting adventures and include a world map with golden notes on the race suit.
In the build up to the United States Grand Prix, BWT Alpine Formula One Team and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle have toured historic landmarks across the country. Starting in California, a mysterious artefact has traversed the USA to the Circuit of the Americas in Texas on a flatbed truck through Las Vegas, the Bonneville Salt Flats, Monument Valley, and more before reaching the track in time for the race weekend.

The new look will be right at home in the Austin setting this weekend. In the past year, our partnership with Xbox has reached new heights and this is our biggest activation yet. There’s even more to come and I’m looking forward to getting my hands on a copy of the game when it comes out.”
