Alpine have announced that current reserve driver Jack Doohan will complete their line-up for the 2025 season – replacing Esteban Ocon as Pierre Gasly’s team mate.

Australian racer Doohan, 21, has been part of Alpine’s dedicated academy since 2022, moving over to the operation after parting ways with the Red Bull junior set-up.

ANALYSIS: Why Alpine have opted for youth in signing Doohan as their rebuild phase gears up

Son of former 500cc motorcycle world champion Mick, he placed third in last year’s F2 championship with three race wins, adding to a runner-up classification in the 2021 F3 standings.

Doohan has been linked to a potential Alpine promotion throughout 2024, with those rumours stepping up a gear in the wake of the news that Ocon will soon leave for Haas.

And, as the paddock reconvened at Zandvoort to kick off the second half of the season, Alpine duly announced that it is their test and reserve driver who will get the nod.
