Alpine Racing: Doohan Out, Colapinto In – Shocking Driver Swap Unveiled!
In a dramatic turn of events, young driver Jack Doohan is set to be replaced at Alpine for the upcoming Formula 1 race at Imola. The decision came after Alpine informed the rookie of their immediate intention to make a change in their driver lineup.
Doohan, who was promoted to a race seat for the 2025 season after Alpine missed out on Carlos Sainz, found his position in jeopardy even before he had the chance to prove himself on the track. The pressure mounted on Doohan when Alpine welcomed Franco Colapinto, previously with Williams, to their team earlier this year.
Despite showing flashes of speed and impressing Alpine initially, Doohan has struggled to deliver consistent results, failing to score a single point in the six races so far. His most recent retirement at the Miami Grand Prix, following a collision with Liam Lawson, highlighted his challenging season.
The decision to replace Doohan with Colapinto, effective immediately, raises eyebrows in the F1 world. While Doohan will remain part of Alpine’s driver roster, the shift in the lineup signals a significant change for the team.
Alpine is yet to officially comment on the situation, leaving fans and experts speculating on the reasons behind the sudden swap. With Colapinto waiting in the wings and ready to take on the challenge at Imola, the upcoming race is sure to be one filled with anticipation and excitement.
