Pierre Gasly has signed a new contract extension to stay with Alpine until at least the end of the 2028 season.

Gasly joined Alpine in 2023 and already had a deal until 2026 but has agreed a two-year contract extension with the Enstone-based outfit.

The 29-year-old has scored two podiums with Alpine - at the 2023 Dutch Grand Prix and 2024 Sao Paulo Grand Prix.

"I'm thrilled to commit my long-term future to Alpine. As a Frenchman, especially, driving for a French car company, makes me feel very proud," said Gasly.

"Since I joined in 2023, I have always felt that this team is the right place to be for the future. Flavio's [Briatore] support and belief in me, François' [Provost] commitment to the Formula 1 project, as well as the people we have in Enstone made this a natural decision and I want to be here in years to come and deliver on our joint objective: to win races and world championships.

"We're all in this together and I look forward to continuing this special story."

Alpine executive advisor Briatore added: "Since I returned to the team, I have always stated how important it is to build and grow the competitiveness of BWT Alpine Formula 1 Team.

"We're well prepared for the new era of Formula 1, beginning in 2026, and now we have our lead driver confirmed to bring us well into the future. Pierre has been an immense asset for the team during this challenging period.

"I have been very impressed with his attitude, dedication and talent and we look forward to continuing this project together for a long time."
