Ferrari team morale seems to be in a good spot.
Ferrari gonna Ferrari. Literally can't get out of their own way.
No shocker here. Doohan out. Why Alpine did this is beyond me. Everyone knew in the offseason it was going to happen so why not just go with Franco to start the season

Alpine has swapped drivers and lost a team principal this week, instability that will keep it down F1's order.

THink that explains why Ollie Oaks left... that whole team is just a MESS. They deserve this, over the way they handled this from the get go.
Hope Doohan lands on his feet, but this Franco contract is only for 5 races too... so WTF are they going to do when Franco kills the budget when he goes flying like he did last year at Williams? Mick? Paul? this is a disaster that could have been avoided...
I have not paid to much attention but did Haas only loan him out to race 5 races? If so what is their plan to do in 5 races? Either try and buy him out with Haas or get someone else? Anyone know?
Franco? or Jack? Jack was in their(Alpine) driver program, so it was a promotion. Franco was part of the Williams program and they released him, but I'm sure there was some financial payment or something there.
You said the Franco contract is only 5 years. I meant Williams also and not Haas. Is Franco only racing for Alpine for 5 races or will he finish out the season?
Supposedly it's only 5 races, and see if his sponsors will foot the bill for the rest of the season.
Yeah my question was that but also what does Alpine plan on doing if they only have him 5 races? Do they go back to Jack or try another rookie?
In case anybody is interested in how the development is going on the Ford power unit that Red Bull will be running next year.
