It was confirmed on the eve of qualifying of the Japanese Grand Prix (8/10/22), that AlphaTauri driver Pierre Gasly will race with Alpine F1 Team as their second driver for 2023 season on a multi-year deal (rumoured till the end of 2025), and completes an all-French line-up alongside Esteban Ocon.

Gasly made his Formula 1 debut with AlphaTauri (Toro Rosso) in 2017. Despite signed to AlphaTauri till the end of 2023. However, an agreement has now been reached, which will see Gasly compete for Alpine in 2023.

This season Gasly currently sits thirteenth in the Drivers' Standings with twenty-three points, with his best race finish of fifth place at Baku.

In my opinion, this is not a big surprise this news happen. It has been strongly rumoured since the Dutch Grand Prix that Gasly was wanted by Alpine.

Its great news for the Alpine team as they have got a talented Grand Prix driver.

Things are looking up for the Alpine team in 2023.
