Jack Doohan to drive for Alpine's F1 team in 2025

Jack Doohan will drive full-time for Alpine's Formula One team in 2025, replacing Esteban Ocon, who is headed to Haas.

The team made the announcement Friday morning in advance of the Dutch Grand Prix. Contract details were not announced.

Doohan, 21, will pair with Pierre Gasly on the F1 team. He has been with Alpine's academy since 2022 and is the first academy graduate to be promoted to the team.

Doohan won three times in 2023, finishing third in the F2 championship. The Australian has been a reserve driver for Alpine the past two seasons.

"I am so happy to secure promotion into a full-time race seat in 2025 with BWT Alpine F1 Team," he said. "I am very grateful for the trust and belief by the team's senior management.

"There is so much work ahead to be prepared and ready and I will give my best in the meantime to absorb as much information and knowledge to be ready for the step up."

Oliver Oakes, Alpine's new team principal, said Alpine will work to develop the team.

"Alongside Pierre, we have a well-balanced driver line-up with a good combination between youthful energy, experience, and pure speed.

"We look forward to working with both Jack and Pierre in order to keep developing the car and bring the team up the grid."
