Jack Doohan Says He Received Death Threats Before Alpine Exit

The claims surface in a new Drive to Survive episode released Friday.

Overview

  • Doohan says he received multiple emails threatening to kill him if he raced in Miami, including explicit threats to cut off his limbs.
  • He recounts encountering three armed men near the event and says he called his police escort to handle the situation.
  • The incidents occurred around the 2025 Miami Grand Prix, which turned out to be his final race before Alpine replaced him with Franco Colapinto.
  • He did not identify any perpetrators and did not detail how the confrontation with the armed men was resolved.
  • He is now a reserve driver for Haas, and last season both he and Colapinto finished without points as Alpine placed last in the constructors' standings.
