Franco Colapinto is going through decisive hours regarding his future in Formula 1. The Argentine driver is reportedly very close to agreeing to remain with Alpine for the 2027 season, after convincing the French team with his performance during the championship.

Talks with the team progressed during the summer break, and everything indicates that Colapinto would continue as Pierre Gasly’s teammate. Reports from Europe say that the growth shown by the Argentine helped clear up the doubts that existed about his long-term future.

The official confirmation could come after the Dutch Grand Prix, which will take place between Friday, August 21, and Sunday, August 23, in Zandvoort. If it goes through, Colapinto would face his second full season as a full-time Alpine driver.

For now, the Argentine remains cautious and avoids publicly declaring the deal done. However, the signals coming from Alpine’s camp are increasingly positive, and everything points to a decision being very close.
