P1racenews AI automatic summary:
Alpine is looking to bounce back from a difficult campaign last year, but question marks already exist over its driver line-up.
Alpine is gearing up for the upcoming F1 season as a chance to start fresh after a tough year in 2024. Pierre Gasly will be leading the team alongside rookie Jack Doohan, with Franco Colapinto waiting in the wings as a reserve driver. While Gasly was the clear winner in a reader poll, many believe Colapinto could out-perform Doohan in points. Gasly, heading into his eighth F1 season and third with Alpine, aims for better results after a challenging previous campaign. Doohan will need to deliver early on, with speculation that Colapinto could swiftly step in if needed. The pressure is on for both drivers as Alpine looks to bounce back in 2025.
