In a shocking turn of events, the Formula 1 world is abuzz with rumors of a potential driver switch at Alpine, with Jack Doohan possibly being replaced by Franco Colapinto. The drama unfolded when Horacio Marin, president of YPF, the company sponsoring Colapinto, inadvertently revealed plans for Doohan to be ousted in favor of the young Argentine driver. Despite the silence from Flavio Briatore, the mastermind behind the Alpine team, Doohan remains unfazed by the swirling speculation.

As the speculations reached a fever pitch ahead of the Miami weekend, Doohan faced a barrage of questions regarding his future with the team. Amidst the uncertainty, the Australian rookie remained nonchalant, expressing his disinterest in the transfer rumors. Reflecting on the tumultuous pre-season period filled with uncertainties, Doohan revealed, “The worst moment was in January when there were more rumors. But I quickly understood what was irrelevant and focused on my work.”

Surprisingly, Doohan also had kind words for Briatore, the man believed to be pushing for Colapinto’s promotion at the expense of the Australian talent. Despite Briatore’s potential role in Doohan’s displacement, the young driver admires the Italian manager for his straightforward nature, stating, “I’ve admired him for a long time. I like his brutal and direct way. There’s no messing around. You understand what’s happening very quickly.”

With tensions running high in the Alpine camp, all eyes are on the impending developments as the team navigates through this potential driver shake-up. Stay tuned for more updates as the F1 saga unfolds.
