Alpine is reportedly going to wait until the summer before they make a decision on the future of its second seat, which is currently occupied by Franco Colapinto.
In the year, Colapinto has 16 points in seven races, finishing in the points four of those times. He has been quite bright over the recent run of races, looking to get a handle on the regulations.
In comparison to his much more experienced teammate, Pierre Gasly, Colapinto is holding his own. Gasly has 41 points over those same seven races, with one DNF to his name.
His ability to stay close to Gasly and deliver points on multiple occasions puts him in a better spot.
He has left a lasting impression on executive advisor Flavio Briatore
