Alpine took advantage of the option on the contract with Colapinto.

      Franco Colapinto will continue to race for Alpine in 2027. According to Autoracer, the team has exercised the option to extend the contract with the Argentine driver, which expired on Monday. The Enstone team considered several candidates for next season alongside Colapinto, but ultimately decided to keep Franco in the lineup and continue the collaboration with him and Pierre Gasly. During the Dutch Grand Prix in Zandvoort, Colapinto's managers finalized the details of the agreement with Alpine. Now, all that remains is to wait for the official confirmation from the team regarding the contract extension.
