Fernando Alonso looks set to extend his long Formula 1 career with Alpine reserve Oscar Piastri on the brink of signing for another team.
The Spaniard's current deal expires at the end of the season, and the 40-year-old has provided little clarity over his future up to now. Alonso now holds the record for the longest F1 career ever, and could choose to extend it further beyond this season.
Alpine had previously said that they would prefer to keep the two-time world champion around if he was willing to continue racing. And they may well get their wish, following a report that the veteran's successor is on the brink of joining another team in a loan-style deal.
