Alpine F1 Team signs Daniil Kvyat as a reserve driver

It was announce yesterday (2/3/21) that former AlphaTauri driver Daniil Kvyat will be Alpine's reserve driver during the 2021 season.

Kvyat was left without a drive for 2021 after AlphaTauri opted to promote Yuki Tsunoda to partner Pierre Gasly.

Kvyat will be the reserve driver, as back up to Fernando Alonso and Esteban Ocon at Alpine (formerly know as Renault) this season.

Kvyat finished fourteenth in the Formula 1 drivers' standings last season, best result of fourth place at Imola.

Meanwhile, Formula 2 and Alpine Academy driver Guanyu Zhou has stayed on as the teams test driver as-well.
