In a groundbreaking move that could potentially shake up the F1 landscape, Franco Colapinto, the rising star of Alpine, has secured a lucrative sponsorship deal with Claro, a major supporter of none other than former Red Bull sensation Sergio Perez.

Amid swirling speculations about Alpine eyeing Mercedes reserve driver Valtteri Bottas, Colapinto’s strategic maneuver to align with Claro could be a game-changer in his quest to solidify his position in the highly competitive world of Formula 1.

After an impressive stint with the Williams team last season, the 21-year-old Argentine driver made a triumphant return to the race seat with Alpine, replacing Jack Doohan as Pierre Gasly’s teammate. With a five-race deal initially in hand, Colapinto’s stellar performance has paved the way for a potential extension, keeping the Alpine team on its toes as they assess their future lineup.

While rumors swirl around a possible move for Bottas to Alpine, discussions are said to be in early stages, leaving the door wide open for Colapinto to showcase his talent and stake his claim in the elite racing circuit.

The partnership with Claro, a telecommunications giant under the Carlos Slim-owned América Móvil umbrella, signifies a significant boost for Colapinto. The deal will see Claro’s branding prominently featured on Colapinto’s gear, including his crash helmet and cap, symbolizing a powerful collaboration between the young driver and the established telecom company.

Expressing his enthusiasm for the collaboration, Colapinto remarked, “I am happy to have partnered with Claro – América Móvil – and to enjoy their support this year. Claro’s dedication to connectivity and innovation mirrors everything we push for on track: precision, speed, and seamless performance. I’m proud to unite our brands and bring a bit of that Latin America to every grand prix.”

Julio Porras Zadik, the chief executive of Claro Argentina, Uruguay, and Paraguay, echoed the sentiment, stating, “We are very excited to support Franco at this key moment,” underscoring the strategic significance of the partnership for both parties.

The alliance between Colapinto and Claro marks a pivotal moment in the young driver’s career, solidifying his position within the Alpine team and setting the stage for a thrilling season ahead. As the F1 landscape continues to evolve, all eyes are on Colapinto as he navigates the twists and turns of the racing world, fueled by talent, determination, and now, a powerful partnership with Claro by his side.
