Jack Doohan celebrates F1 debut: Ocon surprisingly replaced before the final!

In the spectacular Formula 1 season finale in Abu Dhabi, Jack Doohan, the talented 21-year-old Australian, will replace Esteban Ocon in the Alpine team. This was announced after the Grand Prix of Qatar and causes excitement in the motorsport world, since Doohan will celebrate his debut in the premier class of motorsport four months earlier than expected. Ocon, who has already signed a contract at Haas for the coming season, will take part in a test for his new team after the last race of the season, such as krone.at reported.

The sudden decision came in Katar after discussions between Alpine and the Management of Ocon during the race weekend. The Alpine team confirmed that there was no final decision, but the talks went in a positive direction. Team boss Oliver Oakes from Alpine expressed that an early change was advantageous for both Doohan and Ocon, since both sides would benefit from this solution. "It is obviously a bit complicated, but it seems to move in a direction that is good for everyone," said Oakes. This situation was exacerbated by Ocon's withdrawal during the race in Qatar after an incident in the first curve, where he watched how his car was parked prematurely, such as the New York Times reported.
