Gasly stays at Alpine for 2025
The Alpine Formula One team has announced that they have signed a contract extension with Pierre Gasly to stay with the team for multiple seasons.
The team having already announced that Esteban Ocon will leave the team at the end of the season, will announce their second driver at a later date.
Pierre Gasly said, I feel very much at home at this great team. I enjoy being a real part of both the Formula 1 project and the wider Alpine Cars vision. I've been officially here for over 18 months and it has always been the plan to build a long-term project with the Team. While on-track it's been a challenging season so far, I remain faithful to the project and I am not going anywhere. I am happy with the changes made, the hard work, and the direction the team is taking. There is a lot of potential in this team's personnel and resources. I'm excited for what is to come in the future and right now I'm focusing on the everyday details that we are putting in to improve our performances.
Team Principal Bruno Famin said, The extension of Pierre's contract with the team is very pleasing. He is a driver with huge experience in Formula 1 and continues to show huge amounts of potential on-track. For Alpine as a brand, he is a great ambassador and we therefore look forward to continuing our collaboration. While this is important for our future, we do have to keep our eyes close to what is coming and that is focusing on improving our current package. We have high ambitions this current season and we will work tirelessly to achieve those things. We will take our time in deciding Pierre's team-mate and we are excited with the options we have on the table.
