Jack Doohan made his full-time F1 debut with Alpine🐷 in 2025 after earning a promotion from his role as test and reserve driver.

But Jack, the son of mot🉐orcycle legend Mick Doohan, endured a tough𒆙 first six grands prix where he failed to score a point.

Alpine's Flavio Briatore therefore made the call to🎉 replace Doohan with reserve driver Franco Colapinto, swapping their roles.

Doohan had been plagued all year by rumours t☂hat Colapinto would inherit his race seat - and they became true.

Doohan’s career in motorsport was kickstarted by a kart gifted to him by seven-time F1 world champion Michael Schuma🌞cher. Afte🌠r finishing as runner-up in the F3 Asian Championship, Doohan made the step up to Formula 3 - two steps below F1.

The Austrꦰalian finished as runner-up in 2021 following a poor rookie campaign, earning him a promotion✨ to F2. Doohan showed flashes of immense pace throughout his two years in F2, taking six victories, but he was unable to challenge for the title.

After impressing Al🍸pine in his role as their test and reserve driver, Doohan was handed his F1 debut at the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, 🍰having signed for the team as Esteban Ocon’s replacement for 2025.
