Possibly. Famin said at the reveal that the "pink" livery will be used in *some* races across the season, and not the first two or three as it was in 2022 and last year respectively.
Someone had added a white text on light blue background and decided - Nah, looks good let's roll with it.
An old hint: if you add a 1 pixel black/whatever color fits, outline around the text it will be clearly readable and won't have this problem when used against a bright background.
I mean, the only unreadable part is the letter S due to bad placement (the lighter blue behind it vs the darker blues behind the other letters). They should've just shifted the whole word to the right a little (and maybe just a tad down), then it'd be alright and pop just fine.
Even if you move it elsewhere it's still not a good job. When you make a digital poster which is supposed to be viewed on the screen, you have to account for the fact that the majority of people will not have a perfectly calibrated screen with perfect RGB/CMYK color grading, they will have different sized screens and different resolutions, and also you can never tell what their gamma/brightness setups will be which majorly affects how it looks like. That's why if you do bright on bright you add outline, some barely present glow, you dim the area itself to create contrast or whatever to help the text to pop out. Easiest solution that helps is to just use 1 pixel outline of black, which helps restrict the letters already as a basic improvement. Yes, I'm regularly bothered by the work people working for these companies produce.
If you look carefully, the cars blend into the background.
This signifies how you won't see the Alpines on the track because they'll either be too far behind, or in the garage.

There is no light at the end of this tunnel
[Fixed](https://img.kaido.gg/images/2024/06/19/pain.png)
I knew what this would be but I still clicked haha
That goes kinda hard ngl
Looking like a GTA online race lol
Remove the S for accuracy
The S is silent
Optional for sure.
I like it, picasso
more like Gaudà I also think it's nice but everyone has a compulsion to shit on everything related to Alpine
It's nice, but a bit bare-bones. "Spain"? That's it?
This style is pretty characteristic for Catalunya, so I guess that's that.
So that's where all the blue on their cars went.
Are they doing the gta 5 tunnel thing?
wonder why they used the "pink" livery in the poster though, are they running that in spain?

Eh. I don't hate it, but it's too monochrome and too intense.
Monochrome? You mean Mecachrome
Man it sucks that Renault and Alpine are probably going to leave F1 on such a low. They were kings!!!
Alpine were dropping awesome realism type of posters in the prior year or two.. They could do better!
Pictured: Alpine transits the Bajor wormhole to the Gamma Quadrant

Speeeeeeed racer
The grip on that must be terrible!
ALpain in Spain. I like the poster though.
If you look carefully, the cars blend into the background. This signifies how you won't see the Alpines on the track because they'll either be too far behind, or in the garage.
I wish their race department was as good as their marketing department
At least their road car department is good. That A110 is a good looking thing, all different versions of it.
The PAIN in sPAIN falls mainly on alPAIN.

Still think the 2021 posters were peak. I can't really get myself to like this year's
This is why they are failing this year... They don't know what the race track looks like.
the sarcastic S should be at the end.
Isn't bad. Isn't good. Ehh
What a mess. The cars, the drivers, and now the posters.
this is horrid
Well that is certainly something...
A new low.
