Pierre Gasly, Nyck de Vries shuffle F1 deck for next season; just two seats not locked down.
Red Bull made it clear that while Gasly was regarded as an ideal figurehead for AlphaTauri it saw no route back for him to the senior team, initially through its persistence with Alexander Albon, and subsequently via its recruitment of Sergio Perez. Perez, an ideal partner for Max Verstappen, now has a deal through 2024. No other team displayed legitimate interest in Gasly, leaving him cuffed to AlphaTauri, until the unexpected Alpine interjection.
In many ways Gasly’s trajectory mirrors that of Carlos Sainz, who pushed through a move outside of Toro Rosso before finding a home at Ferrari, via stints at Renault and McLaren, when he realized the door to Red Bull was closed. In the announcement it was confirmed that Gasly’s nine-year association with Red Bull will end.Getty Images
De Vries won the 2020-21 Formula E title while the Mercedes affiliation led to Formula 1 tests, and FP1 runs for Mercedes, Aston Martin and Williams this year to fulfill their young driver quota. “After Formula 2, I took a slightly different path with motorsport, but F1 has always been my dream and I’m grateful to be able to fulfill it,” said de Vries. “I’ve had a lot of chances to experience the 2022 car this year and I think that has put me in a great position for the upcoming season.”Confirmation of Gasly at Alpine and de Vries at AlphaTauri means only two seats remain on the 2023 grid—the second seats at Haas and Williams respectively.
