Alpine confirm Colapinto contract extension for 2027

Franco Colapinto will continue to race in Formula 1 with Alpine next season after the Enstone-based squad announced he will partner Pierre Gasly in an unchanged line-up. The Argentine driver joined Alpine as a reserve for 2025 before stepping into the race seat from the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix as a replacement for Jack Doohan. He was retained for this season and has since scored 19 points across six Grands Prix so far this season, working with Gasly to help the team to P6 in the Teams' Championship....

Komatsu gives update on Haas' driver plans for 2027

Ayao Komatsu has declared that Haas aren’t “in any rush” to settle on their future driver line-up, with the Team Principal eager to concentrate more on supporting Ollie Bearman and Esteban Ocon in performing at their best. It’s been a frustrating season for Haas as their strong start to the year, which featured Bearman’s P5 finish at the Chinese Grand Prix, quickly faltered, leaving the team to tumble down the order as their midfield rivals out-developed them....

Why Colapinto has been rewarded with an Alpine extension

Why Colapinto has been rewarded with an Alpine extension

Having upped his game in 2026, Franco Colapinto has been rewarded with a contract extension that will keep him at Alpine next season alongside Pierre Gasly. The Argentine arrived at Alpine as reserve in 2025 off the back of a strong debut with Williams, where he had completed the final nine races of 2024 as a replacement for American Logan Sargeant. He got his shot in a race seat a few months later when he was parachuted in to replace Jack Doohan early in the campaign - and then got the nod full-time for this season, fending off a threat from reserve Paul Aron....

Wolff explains decision behind Monza penalty for Antonelli

Mercedes Team Principal Toto Wolff revealed in Zandvoort that Kimi Antonelli would be taking a grid penalty for the next round of the championship in Monza as a result of a planned engine change. The Italian Grand Prix is Antonelli’s home race, but Mercedes believe it is the right decision to take the penalty there, rather than at a later round of the season, to avoid further technical problems such as the one that forced him to retire in Barcelona....

Perez and Bottas reflect on Cadillac's Dutch Grand Prix

Cadillac drivers Sergio Perez and Valtteri Bottas believe there are lessons to be taken from last weekend’s Dutch Grand Prix, with the former stating “the pace was very strong” despite failing to score any points. The American team continue to face an uphill battle during their maiden season in Formula 1, with last weekend’s race at Zandvoort the latest challenge to overcome. The team have yet to register a point this season and fell further behind nearest rivals Aston Martin in the teams' standings after Fernando Alonso claimed two points with P9....

10 times F1 drivers suffered heartbreak at their home race

Max Verstappen suffered a spectacular exit from the Dutch Grand Prix last weekend after crashing out at high-speed on the final corner. The Dutchman walked away unharmed after his off, but it was a disappointing final home race for the four-time World Champion - who has won at the venue on three previous occasions - and the Orange Army at Zandvoort. Verstappen is certainly not the first driver to suffer home heartache though, and F1....

PALMER: Is Norris in the title race after his Zandvoort win?

PALMER: Is Norris in the title race after his Zandvoort win?

Lando Norris has taken his driving to a new level this season and Zandvoort was a showcase of it all coming together. His Qualifying effort was superb. Lando has always enjoyed Zandvoort, it’s been a circuit he’s always had a natural affinity with and he won the race comfortably from pole in 2024. It was no surprise he had pace to challenge for pole position on Saturday, but what I was more impressed with was his mindset in achieving it....

Andrea Stella has praised race-winner Lando Norris in the wake of the Dutch Grand Prix, which the McLaren man won from pole. But that does not tell the full story of the race, with Norris having to catch and pass Kimi Antonelli on track to ensure he took victory. Stella watched as his driver bided his time after falling behind Antonelli at the second standing start, with Norris able to extract more pace on the hard compound tyre than his rival....

How Alonso used a unique strategy to earn P9 in Zandvoort

The Dutch Grand Prix saw some fantastic action at the front, but there were also impressive performances further back, including a spectacular drive from Fernando Alonso to P9 and two precious points for Aston Martin. The Spaniard was beaten only by the Audi of Nico Hulkenberg in the midfield battle. However, while progress has been made of late it would be premature to suggest that Aston Martin’s AMR26 was the sixth fastest car on the Zandvoort grid....
