HERE WE GO! Sounds familiar, right? No, you’ve not stumbled upon a football transfer rumor blog. Fabrizio Romano, most well-known for his accurate reporting of football transfers before they are officially announced, has made a huge claim regarding F1. And it concerns Pierre Gasly.

For months on end now, we’ve been excited by the prospect of the Frenchman Gasly joining Alpine. The French team, based in Enstone, has been linked with Gasly even before Alonso announced he was leaving the team in 2022. However, as it would appear, Romano has some big news!
