VMA Masterclass Ep1: Alain Prost

Note: Verizon Media is now known as Yahoo.

Verizon Media CEO Guru Gowrappan speaks to Special Advisor and Non-Executive Director of Alpine F1 Team Alain Prost about how the racing world adapted during the pandemic and how data is key to every decision made on and off the track.

They discuss—amongst other topics—how the team pivoted to esports during 2020 and the difference in the sport today from Alain's racing days.

“

I love the period that I raced with all the technology in the ‘90s. Because it was more common to the human side and we were learning at the same time.”
