With the backing of Alpine and the unconditional support of the Argentine public, the young driver will seek to continue growing within the demanding world of Formula 1.
The news represents a vote of confidence in the Argentine, who will remain linked to the team with which he debuted in the top category. His objective is clear: to continue gaining experience, building confidence, and proving he has the talent to compete among the best in the world. Each race is an opportunity to solidify his position, and the Argentine has already made it clear that his ambition knows no bounds.
The driver later highlighted that his main goal was to accumulate experience and kilometers, thinking about the upcoming competitions of the season. Additionally, this week Alpine officially announced the renewal of Franco Colapinto's contract, confirming his continuity within the French team for the next season.
From Alpine's environment, they highlighted his ability to adapt, his constant work, and his professional mindset, qualities they consider essential for his future growth. In this way, Colapinto closed a chapter focused on learning in Brazil and is now looking ahead to what's next.
"It was a complicated weekend, but the good thing is that the third time's the charm. Next year, we're going for it all in Brazil," he wrote. The message, which quickly filled with supportive comments, reflects the maturity with which the driver approaches each race, highlighting the importance of learning from challenges and moving forward with a positive mindset.
In closing, the Buenos Aires native expressed his appreciation for the encouragement of the public who traveled to Interlagos to watch him compete: "You are the best in the world, there's nothing like Argentina, dude." His words moved thousands of fans, who from the stands cheered non-stop with light blue and white flags.
During the start of the Brazilian GP, the Argentine failed to have a good performance in the qualifying session, as he was eliminated in Q1 and had to start from 18th on the grid. However, in the main race, Colapinto showed a notable improvement in his performance, gaining positions with a more solid pace and crossing the finish line in 15th place, which was an encouraging end to a complicated weekend for his car.
After the Brazilian Grand Prix, Argentine driver Franco Colapinto, representing the Alpine team, shared an emotional post on his social media to close a special weekend in Formula 1. In the description of his Instagram post, Colapinto wrote: "Thank you all for being there!!"
