Franco Colapinto A Red Bull?: The explanation of one of Red Bull’s bosses
The novel by the departure of Liam Lawson from Red Bull came to an end: Finally it will be the Japanese Tsunoda – who will leave his post in Racing Bulls – Who will occupy the seat in the car that accompanies Verstappen. The decision ends with the strong rumors and versions around the change of pilots after only the first two dates of the championship.
As usual in recent months, Colapinto was part of the options shuffled by the Red Bull team to be Lawson’s replacement. Prior to the decision, Marko held a meeting with Olli Oakes, director of Alpine, and the expectation about the Argentine’s future shot.
However, in the last hours Marko said that “Colapinto was not a subject”, in reference to the change in Red Bull. “I have a good relationship with Olli Oakes (director of Alpine). He has regularly had some of our pilots in his various teams of the lower categories. One of his pilots currently competes in the British GP3, for example. That was the reason why I met with him. Collapinto was not a topic”He said.
The suggestive post of Franco Colapinto: Does Alpine put pressure?
Alpine’s Argentine reserve pilot published on social networks a suggestive post in the midst of the rumors that link him on a possible grill of the highest category of motor racing. “The closest one I was from a start this year,” joked the 21 -year -old Pilarense through his official Instagram account next to his image in the China Grand Prix, held last weekend, where the French team did not get good results.
In detail, their two starting pilots did not have a good season start. The Gallic Pierre Gasly and the Australian Jack Doohanthey did not achieve great performance in Shanghai, second date of the Gran Awards calendar. While the European ended up disqualified, the oceanic ended in the thirteenth position.
Alpine’s poor performance, especially that of Doohan himself, both in the Australian GP and in the Asian country, Rumors began to rekindle an imminent return from the former Albiceleste pilot of Williams to the “maximum.”
On the other hand, in statements for a podcast, Gasly praised Colapint “Franco is doing a great job and I hope to see him run soon”Although he remarked that “all pilots reserve want the seat of the officers” and that “Jack (Doohan) last year was in the same situation.”
Finally, the native of Pilar will not accompany the French team to the Japan Grand Prix, which will take place from April 4 to 6, since it will remain at the headquarters located in Estone, England, to hold sessions with the simulator.
