2025 F1 Thread

Alpine have announced that Colapinto will be their reserve driver for the 2025 season. Williams have temporarily released him for this position, but he still has a multi year contact with them.
This puts pressure on Doohan who’s pairing up with Gasly as the Alpines drivers, with a rumour that the Australian has the first six races to prove his worthiness for the seat.
 
The teams have shown a lot less reluctance of late to let a poor performing driver go the full season. I am sure that is now being written into contacts across the board.

Whilst I would like to see a driver given a chance, the amount of money at stake, and the number of young drivers knocking on the door has pretty much seen those days gone.
 
Definitely the pressure will be on Jack. You just have to hope he gets to grips with the car and speeds quickly.

But in his last three seasons in F2/F3 he dominated team mates and definitely wasn't driving the quickest car on the grid.

Best chance of staying around is to put the pressure on Gasly.
