Overview

• Formula 1 officially published Alpine’s driver terms showing Pierre Gasly on a multi-year deal through at least 2026 and Franco Colapinto signed race by race for the rest of 2025.
• The figures reveal a sharp pay gap, with Gasly earning about $10 million per season and Colapinto roughly $41,000 per race.
• Colapinto remains scoreless after eight starts since replacing Jack Doohan, with Alpine last in the constructors’ standings and all 20 of its points coming from Gasly.
• Asked about 2026, Colapinto said he cannot predict his future and is approaching his opportunity race by race; Alpine publicly marked his one-year F1 milestone with a supportive post.
• Alpine has effectively frozen in-season upgrades since Barcelona to prioritize 2026, with Flavio Briatore advising, Steve Nielsen due in September, and Gasly cautioning that the car is unlikely to change much this year.
