I believe a decision was reached behind the doors, and Ocon wonโ€™t drive for Alpine next year. We might see a driver swap if Ocon continues his rampage, but for now, they are sticking with him since the team needs stability and he isnโ€™t a bad driver after all.

I wounder if there is a penalty they would have to pay to terminate him early?

Well that was prophetic. Congratulations!

I like to imagine the only reason he wasn't dropped right away is because there's nobody else willing to drive that shitbox of a car. He's probably out the next year.
