Although Franz Tost may assure that Pierre Gasly will continue his adventure with AlphaTauri, no formalization has yet been made by the team or even the driver. As the summer break approaches and all the negotiations are in full swing, the Norman knows that it will be one of the soap operas of the summer. It now remains to be seen whether its main team announced the news in advance to keep out the competition or to put pressure on Tricolore and the Red Bull staff so that its future is sealed for good.
