Motorsport: Jack Doohan has been dropped by Alpine with Franco Colapinto his replacement

# Motorsport: Formula One team Alpine has confirmed that reserve driver Franco Colapinto will replace Jack Doohan for the next five races, starting with next weekend’s Emilia Romagna Grand Prix at Imola in Italy. Doohan has struggled to match teammate Pierre Gasly and has failed to score a single point after six rounds of his rookie F1 campaign. The 22-year-old Australian will remain with Alpine as a reserve driver. This follows yesterday’s announcement that team principal Oliver Oakes had resigned with immediate effect.
