God that's nuts. You're a manufacturer team, Renault, using the name of your high-performance line, Alpine, and you don't think it would look really weird to not use your own engines? What kind of advertising is that? πŸ˜‚

They can rebadge the engines, it's not that big of deal for marketing hence why they're even considering it
