P1racenews AI automatic summary:
Six races with Jack Doohan, and six for Franco Colapinto, but Alpine’s results have been little better as the team’s gamble is still to prove worthwhile in F1.
Alpine’s Formula 1 team has struggled with Jack Doohan and Franco Colapinto, neither matching Pierre Gasly’s performance. Even with Gasly’s best result of sixth place, Alpine still lingers at the bottom of the Constructors Championship. Colapinto’s signing brought some sponsors and pressure, impacting Doohan negatively from the start. Doohan’s seat was lost after just six races, prompting doubts about the rushed driver decisions. The team must improve on-track results to salvage this season from being yet another failure. It remains to be seen if Colapinto was truly a step forward for Alpine in the current F1 campaign.
