Alpine F1 executive advisor Flavio Briatore has continued to fuel speculation abouඣt Jack Doohan’s future with the team.

Despite making his F1 debut at the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, specuওlation has been rife about Doo🧸han’s future.

Amid Franco Colapinto’s scintillating form, there were suggestio🍃ns Briatore and Alpine were interested in the Argentine’s services🧸.

However, due to the significant finances it would take to geඣt Colapinto out of his Williams contract, combined with his poor end-of-season form, a move for him wasn’t possible.

Doohan is set to race in 2025 alongside Pierre Gasly at Alpin🦹e.

While Doohan is certain to start the season,𓆉 his long-term future is far from secure.

Speakin🐟g to French publication , Briatore was ༺far from committal.

“The only certain thing is death,” Briatore said. “We start the year with Pierre and Jack, I guarantee it. After that, we’ll♍ 🍃see during the season.

“I have🅠 to help the team reach a situatꦇion where it can achieve results.

“The driver is the one who has to finish the work of the almost o🌠ne thousand people b🍸ehind him.

“Everyone works for just two people. And if ther♉e is a driver who is not making progress, who is not bringing results, he will be changed.”

A strong end to F1 2024 for Alpine

Alpine ended the ꦅ2024 F1 season as the in-form team in the midꦯfield.

Their double-podium finish at the Sao Paulo Grand Prix propelled them 𒆙u🔴p to sixth in the constructors’ championship.

A significant upgrade package at the United States Grand Prix turned their fortunes around, particularly in the haꦅnds of Gasly.

Gasly scored points in fꦐour of the final five races, with a DNF in Las Vegas.

Alpine have 🍨also made the decision to run Mercedes engines in 2026, 𒁃abandoning their works engine project.
