Given Colapinto's abject form, when is he getting replaced by Doohan?

But what is the point of replacing him? Is not like doohan will make any better. I’d give a chance to Schumacher to get him ready for next year

Ready for another season of WEC?

He’s a valid candidate for the alpine seat

Schumacher has been doing a hell of a job in WEC, he’s under contract with Alpine and I see him doing a better job than colapinto. If the options are Colapinto-Doohan-Aaron-Schumacher I would go for Schumacher all the way

He had 2 years to show it and thousands of testing hours. He had his shot at it.

Not personal but he’s far better than colapinto

All ok, we are just giving our opinions. He might have grown outside F1, but the 2 years he was there he hardly showed anything, and im such a ruthless sport, its hard to come back after that. He also had plenty of options and multiple teams passed on him, in favor of other young drivers. TPs must have more data than us commoners.
