Alpine has confirmed that Argentine driver Franco Colapinto will replace Jack Doohan for the next five Formula 1 races, starting with the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix, as the team experiments with a new lineup mid-season.
Renault-owned Alpine confirmed that Argentine driver Franco Colapinto will replace Australian Jack Doohan for the next five Formula 1 races, starting with the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix.
Doohan, 22, the son of motorcycle legend Mick Doohan, has struggled to make an impact this season. He failed to score a point in six races this year and one at the end of 2024, prompting the team to reassess its lineup.
“We’ve decided to put Franco in the car alongside Pierre for the next five races,” said executive advisor Flavio Briatore, who is expected to assume the role of team principal following Ollie Oakes’ resignation on Tuesday.
Despite the swap, Briatore emphasized the team’s ongoing support for Doohan. “Jack has conducted himself very professionally, and we continue to value his contribution,” he said. “These next five races are a chance to try something different, and we’ll re-evaluate our options afterward.”
Colapinto, 21, joined Alpine from Williams as a reserve driver at the start of the season. He competed in nine races for Williams in 2024, filling in for American Logan Sargeant and securing five points — including a best result of eighth in Azerbaijan.
“I’m grateful to the team for this opportunity,” said Colapinto. “I’ve worked hard to stay sharp and be ready for a moment like this. I’ll do everything I can to adapt quickly and perform alongside Pierre.”
Doohan expressed disappointment but remained positive. “Of course, it’s tough not to be racing, but I’m thankful for the chance I’ve had,” he said. “I’ll keep pushing behind the scenes, follow the next five races closely, and continue to pursue my own goals.”
