About
Franco Colapinto carries the hopes of Argentina, a country that had waited decades for a Formula 1 driver to cheer. His debut cameo with Williams in 2024 made him a national sensation, and Alpine gave him a full-time seat.
Eleventh in the 2026 championship on 27 points, the higher scorer of Alpine’s two drivers this year, he keeps dragging the car into the points and the fans keep growing louder.
