Rival F1 team emerges as possible option for Jack Doohan amid Alpine uncertainty
Reports suggest that Jack Doohan could become Haas’s reserve driver for the 2026 Formula 1 season amid fading chances of a race seat at Alpine. He began the year as Alpine’s second driver but was quickly replaced by Franco Colapinto. Alpine is undecided on its 2026 driver lineup, with options including retaining Colapinto, giving Doohan another chance, or promoting Paul Aron. Doohan’s father, Mick Doohan, was seen talking to Haas boss Ayao Komatsu, potentially indicating a move for Jack to the team. The Australian driver is exploring options to stay in the F1 radar and continue racing after his brief stint with Alpine.
