Alpine is still looking for a driver to join Esteban Ocon in Formula 1 in 2023. Nothing is clear after Fernando Alonso left and Oscar Piastri, a young talent trained in his academy, surprised everyone by signing with McLaren when I wanted he of Alpine at Oviedo’s. place Mick Schumacher responds to that position, where it is not known if he will continue with Haas and who may end his relationship with the Ferrari academy this year, and also Pierre Gasly or Daniel Ricciardo.
However, Red Bull will not let AlphaTauri’s Pierre Gasly get away unless F1 gets his target, the young American Colton Herta, a super license, something that seems complicated. Therefore, the Pierre option is cooling. On the other hand, Daniel Ricciardo recently opened the door to the possibility of spending a year as a reserve driver, ensuring that his rings do not fall off while looking for a seat to return to the grid in 2024. After his bad experience at McLaren, the Aussie didn’t seem to have much of a choice.
And behind them, in recent days, 19-year-old Jack Doohan (January 20, 2003, Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia) won many integers in the paddock rumor mill.
The son of five-time consecutive 500cc Motorcycle World Championship champion, Mick Doohan, was fourth in the general classification of the Formula 2 World Championship in his first full course in the category after making his debut in the silver class at the end . last year, where he finished second in his second year of Formula 3. This opportunity may come to him soon, but as an Alpine academy driver, but the French firm can achieve the goal of his academy to get his F1 box to a driver from your program, as well as being the cheapest option.
Amidst these rumours, Jack Doohan simultaneously proved that the added pressure of being a candidate for an F1 team does not faze him. The Australian took his third pole of the course on Friday and will be looking to add to his record, so far 3 wins this year. And after that, at an official FIA press conference, Jack was asked about his options to move up to Alpine in F1.
“My future? It’s time to not get too involved in Alpine, although I have to learn as much as I can, study the cars, because that helps me for my weekend. It motivates me more to talk about me for that seat, but I’m only focused on F2,” he said.
“I’m trying to enjoy this experience as much as possible, so we’ll talk at the end of the year if the F1 team wants me. leading so there won’t be any kind of incident.
