Someone needs to expose the whole thing. What has changed in the way they operate? Alex and Pierre must just think wtf.Saw this on IG earlier
From people I know at Alpine... there's more to Esteban's exit 
Let's see how Jack gets on. It's time to either put the rumour mill about his testing to bed... or give us new rumours for winter break.

Yeah I thought so. Maybe not happy with his attitude on and off the track?From people I know at Alpine... there's more to Esteban's exit

I get why they did it but still seems an odd on especially announcing just after the 2nd last race. Plus the "thank you" from Alpine to him hardly nice.
In the vaguest possible terms. Yes there were supposedly concerns about his on and off track stuff and potential implications in the fight against Haas.
Apparently the decision was taken Saturday night.
if he was tanking on purpose. I had just thought that the upgrades since Austin were just more suited to Pierre and Esteban had got them a race later. I know there was a difference in the cars in Qatar with Pierre getting the new nose/wing. The goodbye post was very curt and perfunctory. It does seem to imply that there was more going on than just being released early to do a post season test.
Apparently, Alpine and Red Bull are no longer interested in Colapinto. It does sound like Checo is out after Sunday. It doesn’t make sense to me to put Lawson in his seat over Yuki. F1 rumours are all very confusing
The trouble with getting rid of Checo has always been who do you replace him with?
Franco started well but crashes as often as he has a stellar weekend which is both expensive and not better than what Checo is currently doing.
If you also put him straight in there what does that do for Yuki and Liam’s mindsets being passed over? If they then step up mid session (if Franco bombs) there is the chance they overdrive and also get very quickly into a downward spiral.
For such a public driver academy and the only team to have an official second team their future planning with drivers is really lacking.

Sent this with glee to Mr E because I've made so many jokes about Danny Ric coming back just to wind him up of course until I see it from an official source or see him on the grid I'll take it with a huge pinch of salt!

Well it could happen. They will need an experienced driver and no doubt an American driver.Sent this with glee to Mr E because I've made so many jokes about Danny Ric coming back just to wind him up
Question is does Danny Ricc want to come back?
Kind of hope not. We have enough young drivers who don’t get seats. Danny has had his time.Sent this with glee to Mr E because I've made so many jokes about Danny Ric coming back just to wind him up
I don't doubt that he could be in consideration at least but with all the rumours that seem to fly about all the time I tend to be cynical until things happen.
No Dutch GP after 2026!
The Max and George argument carries on. It's certainly not going ho down quietly
I’d pay box office fees to watch Max box his face. And I don’t even like Max but George is argubaly more annoying. He’s like the f1 version of a Karen… a Karun if you will.
Well if what George says is true about putting George's bleeping head into a wall that ain't racing that's being a bully. So I ain't happy with that if true. It's going to far.
But each to their own.
Max and Kelly are gonna be parents. Congrats to them!
Ah cute
He’s said a few times he doesn’t want to be a parent and be in F1. So this will be interesting
Yes very. I'm sure many will be asking will he retire.
