Hollywood is taking to the tracks as these actors turn from the big screen to the Grand Prix.
Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenny along with Michael B. Jordan have made a major investment in the world of Formula 1 racing.
The three men have invested in the Alpine F1 racing team.
Back in 2020, Reynolds and McElhenny bought the Welsh football team Wrexham AFC. They released a documentary series about it to Disney+ called, “Welcome to Wrexham.”
Jordan has also dabbled in the world of football. He’s a minority owner of the Premier League team Bournemouth.
In a sign of growing interest in F1 racing, these three celebrities along with several other investors have invested a whopping $218 million into the team.
Alpine’s parent company, French automotive company Renault Group, said Monday that the group has acquired a 24% stake in the team. It includes Otro Capital, RedBird Capital Partners and Maximum Effort Investments, which is led by Reynolds.
Alpine currently ranks fifth in the Constructors championship standings.
