Pierre Gasly: ”I want Jack Doohan to do well”
The Frenchman went back to his Alpine teammate, amid the rumors they have to the Australian in the midst of a pressing situation for his future.
They are rumors, yes. They point out that if Jack Doohan does not yield to entry, he could lose his place in the hands of one of the members of the wide range of reserves that Alpine hasamong which is Franco Colapinto, the only one of the four with experience in Formula 1. are rumors, nothing more. But there is a factual fact: no one inside the French team went out to cut off the noise and confirm the Australian until the end of the year. In fact, the unscrupulous Flavio Briatore did not hesitate to affirm: “If a pilot does not give me results, I change it.” And, precisely, the Italian creator of the shameful Crashgate of Singapore 2008 is the executive advisor of the Team and the man who decides inside doors.
The pressure on Doohan is notorious and feels. The pilot who debuted at the last appointment of last year has Oliver Oakes on his side, the team director and who knows his passage through the 2019 Asian F3 with Hitech, a team created by English. And in the previous Australian Grand Prix that opened the 2025 exercise, it was Pierre Gasly, his partner, who went out to bank it strongly.
The Frenchman has experience of having a rookie as a partner. He lived it with Yuki Tsunoda in Alpha Tauri. “I think Jack is slightly more prepared than Yuki at the time. Even so, it arrives and lands in F1 with different challenges, so I try to support Jack in everything I can. From my past experience, because I want me to do well, “Gasly said.
And it went further: “It’s a great guy. I think he has talent and there has already been so much about him, that I think it is important to leave it … after all, we have the best job in the world, we are supposed to be here and enjoy every second being an F1 pilot, What is not always easy in this environment, so that is how you can deal with these emotions and close to make sure that you can offer 100% of your talent with the team and work, regardless of all these noises around you. So, I try to help him. “
