Colton Herta's chances of landing a Formula 1 seat for next season look to be dead in the water, amid reports Red Bull have given up on their efforts to place him at AlphaTauri.
The IndyCar star has made no secret of his desire to switch to F1, and has the talent to back up that dream. The seven-time race winner has tested with McLaren already earlier this year, and was set to get behind the wheel of an Alpine car later this month.
That was in preparation for his proposed move to AlphaTauri, but that deal now looks to be off. Speaking to German media, Red Bull chief Helmut Marko has suggested they have been able to get the help they needed from the FIA to make the move happen.
