It was the will of Franz Tost, the director of the AlphaTauri team. It is now official. Pierre Gasly and Yuki Tsunoda will continue to form the team’s duo until 2022. It seems that she wanted to wait for the confirmation of Sergio Perez’s extension at Red Bull to announce the news.<\/p>\n
Indeed, this extension has closed the door to a possible return of Gasly to the main team. And it’s not to disappoint us. The Frenchman is having a very good season behind the wheel of his AlphaTauri and for now, it’s hard to imagine him elsewhere. He is enjoying himself and it shows on the track. Currently eighth in the driver standings, Gasly is putting together exceptional performances, like his fourth place at Zandvoort. Proud of his driver’s results, Tost is convinced that there is more to come. He can also rely on the positive relationship between the two drivers.<\/p>\n
\u00ab Pierre’s development over the years has been impressive and during his time with us, he managed to climb onto the three steps of the podium. I am convinced that there is more to come and that is why we are thrilled to have him with us for another season. Also, he is using his experience in F1 to help Yuki in his development. We have seen that the positive relationship between the two, characterized by on-track competitiveness and off-track friendship, has proven effective for the team.<\/p>\n
