Alpine has chosen to put Franco Colapinto in the car, in Jack Doohan's stead. But, what if this move doesn't work out either? Leader of the F2 championship standings, Richard Verschoor, gives his take on the state of affairs at the French team.

Karun Chandhok has claimed that new Alpine driver Franco Colapinto had “a shunt” during testing as he prepares to take over Jack Doohan’s seat. Colapinto has already raced nine times in F1 but Alpine have sought to give him more time behind the wheel by conducting a number of private tests away from the F1 schedule.

Alpine has swapped drivers and lost a team principal this week, instability that will keep it down F1's order.
