Colapinto Expected to Replace Doohan at Alpine

Franco Colapinto has emerged as a key asset for Alpine F1, with team advisor Flavio Briatore expressing strong support for the young driver. While current drivers Jack Doohan and Pierre Gasly are confirmed for the season, Doohan's performance may be scrutinized, leaving Colapinto as a potential replacement. Briatore emphasized Colapinto's talent and work ethic, stating that they are committed to providing him with the necessary opportunities to succeed. Colapinto, who previously raced for Williams, has gained attention for his quick adaptation despite limited experience, and his strong performances have led to speculation about his future role in the team. As the season progresses, many believe it is only a matter of time before Colapinto secures a race seat. His partnership with sponsors like Mercado Libre further enhances his value to Alpine.
