According to information gathered by Motorsport.com, the agreement between Doohan and Alpine is done, and the signing and subsequent announcement (expected in the coming days) will confirm Jack alongside Gasly for the 2025 season.

Currently, Doohan is at Spa with Alpine for the Pirelli tests, replacing the unavailable Esteban Ocon. Jack is well known to Alpine’s new team principal, Oliver Oakes, having raced for the HiTech team, which Oakes co-founded. Doohan is also supported by Mark Webber, a former driver managed by Briatore, with whom he still has good relations.

Currently still a rumor, but Motorsport Italy is usually solid with its sources. It seems Doohan showed better times than Mick Schumacher in the shootout. For German fans, Mick still has chances with Audi.
