Pierre Gasly has swapped AlphaTauri for Alpine to form an all-French line-up in the latest shake-up of Formula One’s grid for 2023. Gasly, 26, has filled the seat of Fernando Alonso, who leaves for Aston Martin in the summer, on a multi-year deal, paving the way for Nyck de Vries to claim his first seat in F1 at AlphaTauri. It leaves just two spots – Williams and Haas – unconfirmed for 2023, with both Mick Schumacher, current incumbent at Haas, and axed McLaren star Daniel Ricciardo sweating on their futures on the grid. ‘Welcome to the Alpine family Pierrot, let’s make our team and our country proud.’.
