Jack Doohan, the reserve driver for Haas Formula 1, recently shared the distressing experience of receiving death threats before being demoted from Alpine last season. Despite his tumultuous past, Doohan now has a chance for a career comeback in F1 as he joins the American team for the 2026 season. His promotion to Alpine in 2025 was short-lived due to internal dynamics, and after failing to score points, he was replaced by Franco Colapinto mid-season.
