Alpine is conducting a test at the Paul Ricard circuit in France, where Mick Schumacher and reserve driver Jack Doohan will participate in a 2022 car test as part of evaluating driver options for 2025. Mick Schumacher is involved in Alpine’s endurance project and recently raced at Le Mans, but encountered issues with the team’s cars due to suspected engine problems. The team’s driver lineup for 2025 is under evaluation, with Esteban Ocon set to leave, leaving potential vacancies that may include Pierre Gasly, Jack Doohan, and Mick Schumacher as candidates. Apart from Schumacher and Doohan, Alpine is also considering Carlos Sainz as a target driver, though the team is reportedly still lower on the list compared to Williams and Stake for Sainz’s potential future placement. Additionally, Zhou Guanyu and Valtteri Bottas are also mentioned as potential candidates for Alpine’s 2025 lineup.
