Antonio Felix da Costa

António Félix da Costa is a Portuguese racing driver who joins the #35 Alpine A424 for the 2026 FIA World Endurance Championship alongside Charles Milesi and Ferdinand Habsburg. He made his name by winning the Macau Grand Prix and took the Formula E World Championship with DS Techeetah in the 2019-20 season. In endurance racing, he won the LMP2 class at the 2022 24 Hours of Le Mans and the FIA Endurance Trophy for LMP2 Drivers the same year, both with Jota Sport.

Da Costa joins Alpine for 2026 after his time at Porsche Penske, where he ran a dual WEC and Formula E programme. At Alpine, he combines a full WEC Hypercar season with a Formula E campaign with Jaguar Racing alongside Mitch Evans. His arrival brings Hypercar class experience and Le Mans pace to a team building competitive form with the A424.

For 2026, Alpine has shown genuine speed in the early rounds and the #35 crew are developing well as a unit. Da Costa's ability to deliver fast laps in qualifying and manage stints in complex conditions is central to Alpine's Le Mans ambitions. The race at the Circuit de la Sarthe is the event the whole programme has been pointed toward, and a strong result there would mark a significant step for the team.
