Formula One's French-Anglo outfit Alpine has revealed how it is collaborating with Mental Health Platform Partner, JAAQ in a bid to imrpove mental health support both within the motorsport industry and globally.

Following their impressive showing at last weekend's Sao Paulo Grand Prix, Alpine has revealed a partnership that represents a significant step forward in mental health support both within the motorsport industry and globally.

Research reveals 65% of people have faced challenges with their mental health, and 89% believe it is important to talk about it – awareness is higher than ever before. Yet, the mental health crisis continues to worsen, with over 34% of people admitting they never discuss their mental health.

Alpine's new partner, JAAQ offers a much-needed resource for "those seeking to better understand their own mental health or that of their loved ones in a safe and supportive environment."

Beyond its impact on fans, the partnership has also focused on internal team support. Recognising the mental health challenges faced by employees working in a high-performance environment, JAAQ developed a customised version of its JAAQ at Work platform exclusively for Alpine team members.

This tailored solution "addresses the unique pressures of working in motorsport, offering a resource that can be accessed globally by team colleagues. Alpine’s Sporting Director Julian Rouse and Chief Financial Officer Gemma Lang are just two of the team members who shared their personal journeys on the platform, sharing how they’ve navigated their own mental health challenges."

Earlier this season, JAAQ Founder and CEO Danny Gray visited the team’s Technical Centre in Enstone to speak with staff about the platform and the purpose behind the partnership. During his visit, Danny shared his own powerful mental health story and discussed JAAQ's mission to make trusted mental health resources accessible to all.

Danny was intent on inspiring team members to share their own personal experiences and encouraging them to speak openly about their mental health challenges. Danny also extended the conversation to Alpine’s engineering team during the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix in May, reinforcing the importance of mental well-being in high-performance environments.
