Alpine says Oscar Piastri will replace Fernando Alonso, Piastri disagrees.
, there was no quote from Piastri in Alpine's press release, and the driver didn't post anything immediately. After a few hours, Piastri tweeted"I understand that, without my agreement, Alpine F1 have put out a press release late this afternoon that I am driving for them next year. This is wrong and I have not signed a contract with Alpine for 2023. I will not be driving for Alpine next year.
Piastri's situation is oddly similar to IndyCar driver Alex Palou's. Last month, Chip Ganassi Racing tweeted that the driver would stick with the team for 2023. Hours later, Palou said this wasn't the case, and shortly after McLaren announced that Palou would be part of its driver lineup in 2023, though it didn't specify where he'd drive. McLaren did, however, say that Palou would test an F1 car. The Ganassi team is now suing Palou in an Indiana court..
In any case, Piastri is very deserving of an F1 seat, remarkably, winning the Formula Renault, F3, and F2 titles in succession. As for which seat he'll get, we'll find out.
