I guess FIA accreditation is not worth much nowadays - it's no surprise though, with the individual in question working for one of the worst news aggregation sites in the sport.

AlphaTauri Formula 1 team CEO Peter Bayer has said the Faenza outfit can no longer focus on preparing rookies as it relaunches under a new name in 2024.
The team has retained Daniel Ricciardo and Yuki Tsunoda for this season, leaving Liam Lawson, who contested five races last year, on the sidelines.
The fresh identity, incoming major US-based sponsors and an extra push from owner Red Bull has obliged AlphaTauri to focus on getting the best possible results, rather than serve primarily as a training ground for a potential recruit to its sister team, which was usually the case in the past.
------------------------------
Bayer has made it clear that henceforth the team will follow the example of rivals and do more private running with young drivers in a two-year-old car, which is not limited by the rules.
The 2022 cars, the first of the current ground effects regulations, can now be used for such testing.
“And we have a big programme actually for Liam and Isack [Hadjar] and potentially [Ayumu] Iwasa, and we want to make sure that we run them as much as possible also. It's interesting that the previous car is a '22 car, so it's finally a relevant car.”

.“Whatever it Takes” | Full Documentary Film – 4K Original Language [ENG Subs available]
Scuderia AlphaTauri
23 jan 2024 #F1 #Docufilm #4K
The world of motor racing is all about speed, adrenalin and incredible stories and our team is no exception. Find out all about it by watching “Whatever it takes - The Race before the Races”, our official documentary film, now freely available online in the original language and in 4K.
The world premiere of Whatever it Takes, in Venice back in September 2023, was a great success and now everyone can enjoy watching the film produced in conjunction with our Media Partner, Digital Lighthouse. Let Franz Tost, Pierre Gasly, Yuki Tsunoda, Jody Egginton and Peter Bayer talk you through the beating heart of our team. Going behind the scenes as never before in Formula 1, the film delves into the secrets of the Faenza factory in Italy and the Bicester wind tunnel in the UK. It’s a great story going all the way back to the Scuderia Toro Rosso days, which included our first ever win at Monza in 2008 and the challenges faced in the years that followed. It also features the drivers that sat in our cars over the past 20 years, such as Sebastian Vettel and Max Verstappen, as well as covering our change to Scuderia AlphaTauri in 2020, with new facilities, more ambitious goals and another win, again in Monza, this time courtesy of Pierre Gasly.
So much achieved and so much more to aim for. Whatever it takes!
