Franco Colapinto returned to the track in 2025 with Alpine, and since his debut in Imola, he has given us moments that will remain forever in the memory of the #FranClub43
It’s been eight races filled with learning, resilience, and determination.
🏁 The debut in Imola
The Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix marked his first official race as an Alpine Formula 1 driver. He started from P16, climbed up to eighth at one point, and eventually finished in P16. He showed speed in Sectors 1 and 2, commitment to the team, and made it clear he was ready for the challenge.

🇲🇨 Monaco: mastering the narrowest streets
His first street circuit was none other than Monte Carlo. He qualified 18th but finished 13th, gaining five positions on a track where overtaking is almost impossible. Flawless driving, no contact, and a perfect strategy earned him the respect of the paddock. 🔗 Race Report de Mónaco

🇦🇹 Spielberg: duels and controversy
In Austria, Franco showed good pace, but contact with another driver cost him the chance to finish higher. Even so, he left a strong impression and proved his character. 🔗 Race Report + Galería de Spielberg
🇬🇧 Silverstone: the race that wasn’t
A technical issue ruled him out before the start. The team couldn’t fix the mechanical fault in time, and Franco didn’t take part. A tough blow, but he was already focused on the next race. 🔗 Race Report + Galería de Silverstone
🇧🇪 Spa-Francorchamps: the storm and the challenge
Belgium welcomed F1 with heavy rain and a start delayed by over 80 minutes. Franco started P15 after the delay and shone on the straights (321 km/h, third fastest overall). With two stops for medium tyres, he finished P19 and gained valuable experience on one of the most demanding circuits. 🔗 Race Report + Galería de Spa
🇭🇺 Hungary: back on familiar ground
