Franco Colapinto has acknowledged the areas where he must improve from the British Grand Prix as he battles to cement his Formula 1 future with Alpine. Colapinto was given an initial five-race contract that expired last weekend, but the team decided to stick with him for the British GP. The Argentine driver admitted he needs to work on his one-lap pace and that the team must also push the car’s development to compete in the midfield. Colapinto stated that despite his struggles in adapting to Alpine’s A525, he is determined to drive as quick as possible and make necessary improvements. With rumors of Valtteri Bottas potentially joining Alpine and the team switching to Mercedes power units in 2026, Colapinto faces uncertainty about his F1 future.
