Estonian Paul Aron to Drive in Free Practice for Alpine F1 Ahead of Italian GP

On Friday, September 5, Alpine confirmed reserve driver Paul Aron will replace Franco Colapinto in FP1 at Monza, marking Aron's debut with Alpine's A525.
As part of its rookie schedule, Alpine is fulfilling the second of four mandatory rookie FP1 sessions for 2025 amid questions over Franco Colapinto's position following criticism from Flavio Briatore.
Aron, who joined Alpine after a strong F2 campaign, has had two FP1 outings for Sauber earlier this year and said, `I will try to do my best to help prepare the car for the weekend`.
Aron's stint should provide fresh setup data for the A525, while Franco Colapinto will continue with Alpine race weekend team personnel for the rest of the weekend.
As a driver academy member, Paul Aron gains crucial race-weekend experience, joining Ireland's Dunne as one of two rookies in Monza first practice rookie group.
