Alpine confirmed earlier this month that Esteban Ocon will not be renewing his contract with the team and will be leaving at the end of the season. While Pierre Gasly’s future with Alpine remains uncertain as his current contract is also set to expire, Gasly has indicated that Ocon’s departure will not impact his plans. Gasly mentioned that he has no immediate announcement regarding his future and is in no rush to make a decision. Despite a history of rivalry between Ocon and Gasly from karting, they have been working professionally together since last season, handling competitive situations well. Ocon is reportedly in talks with Haas for a potential move, while Jack Doohan is a strong contender for Ocon’s seat at Alpine, alongside Valtteri Bottas, Guanyu Zhou, and Mick Schumacher as other potential options for Alpine’s lineup changes.
