P1racenews AI automatic summary:
Franco Colapinto’s long-term F1 future is in serious doubt…
Sergio Perez is considering a move to either Alpine or Cadillac for the upcoming season, per reports.
Alpine may have to replace Colapinto and has its eyes on Perez and Bottas, according to a German outlet.
Flavio Briatore is reportedly interested in both Perez and Bottas for the Cadillac team next year.
However, recent reports suggest that Bottas is likely to join Cadillac, leaving Perez as a strong option for Alpine.
Perez’s strong performance this season, coupled with financial backing, makes him an attractive choice for both teams.
Alpine’s backup plan could involve promoting Paul Aron from their junior program if they can’t secure Perez or Bottas.
Colapinto, who is likely to be replaced, needs to deliver strong performances in the remaining races to secure his seat for next season.
