“I am looking forward to this new chapter and can’t wait to see what we achieve together, ” Travis Kelce had said last October when he and Patrick Mahomes had joined Otro Capital’s investing team that acquired a 24% stake in the Formula One racing team Alpine Racing. The valuations of all the F1 teams came out recently. Both Chiefs stars have earned big in just one year.
According to Sportico, Alpine Racing has jumped in valuation from $311 million in 2023 to $1.5 billion in 2024. That’s huge. And this mammoth increase has made the ownership group very happy. The stake of NFL stars has also increased by a big margin. Here’s the update about their individual stakes.
The ownership ship of Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce invested $218 million in 2023 to acquire the 24% stake. If we consider the value of their stake, it has also increased to $360 million in 2024. That means their money has grown by 65%. Both players would be happy after the massive financial boost of this investment. But that’s not the only thing to be happy.

While the valuation of all teams has increased, two of the 10 teams, Aston Martin and Williams, have suffered losses of $27 million and $100 million. But Alpine has also earned a profit of $23 million. If the profit is divided as per the stake ownership, the NFL stars will earn $5.5 million from the profit as well. That’s great news for the fans also.
When Patrick Mahomes had invested the money last year, he had said, “I’ve always had a passion for all sports.” That’s right. The MVP might be earning more from his investments than he does from the NFL.
