The 29-year-old joined Alpine ahead of the 2023 season and has since scored two podiums while also playing a key role in helping the team secure sixth place in the Teams\u2019 Championship last season.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cI\u2019m thrilled to commit my long-term future to Alpine. As a Frenchman, especially, driving for a French car company, it makes me feel very proud. Since I joined in 2023, I have always felt that this team is the right place to be for the future,\" Gasly said in a statement.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cFlavio\u2019s support and belief in me, Francois\u2019 commitment to the Formula 1 project, as well as the people we have in Enstone made this a natural decision and I want to be here in years to come and deliver on our joint objective: to win races and World Championships. We\u2019re all in this together and I look forward to continuing this special story.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Gasly\u2019s previous contract wasn\u2019t due to expire until the end of next season but both sides were keen to extend that deal by a further two years and so put pen to paper ahead of this weekend\u2019s Italian Grand Prix.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Alpine Executive Advisor Briatore hailed Gasly\u2019s efforts at Alpine so far. \u201cSince I returned to the team, I have always stated how important it is to build and grow the competitiveness of BWT Alpine Formula One Team.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
