  • Summary

  • We discuss Alpine’s decision to replace Jack Doohan with Franco Colapinto and the resignation of team principal Oli Oakes in the latest edition of The Race F1 Podcast.


    Michael Lamonato and Scott Mitchell-Malm join Edd Straw to explain how this played out, and how Australia has reacted to the treatment of Doohan. That’s as part of a wider look at a team that has now made a huge number of managerial changes since being rebranded from Renault for 2021.


    Franco Colapinto’s prospects after being confirmed initially only for five races, and the reasons for doing so, are also evaluated.


    We also discuss Oscar Piastri’s rise to the top of F1 and how Australia has taken its latest sporting hero to its heart.
