Doohan began his competitive karting career in 2012 after receiving his first kart from his former neighbour, seven-time Formula One World Champion Michael Schumacher. He went on to win the Australian Karting Championship in both 2015 and 2016. Doohan continued to perform the following year, finishing third in the CIK-FIA Karting European Championship and securing sixth place in the World Championship.
Before being confirmed as Apline’s second driver for the 2025 F1 Season, Doohan had gained extensive experience in F1 cars with Alpine over three seasons, preparing for a potential opportunity. He took part in numerous private tests and appeared in multiple FP1 sessions, including in Mexico and Abu Dhabi in both 2022 and 2023, as well as in Canada and Britain in 2024.
Doohan had been constantly linked to a potential promotion within Alpine throughout 2024, with speculation intensifying after the announcement that Esteban Ocon would depart for Haas in 2025. As the paddock gathered at the 2024 Dutch Grand Prix to begin the second half of the season, Alpine confirmed that their test and reserve driver, Doohan, would be the one to step up.
On May 7, 2025, Alpine announced that Jack Doohan would be stepping out of the race seat for the following five Grands Prix (post Miami), beginning with the following round, the 2025 Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix. The team confirmed that former Williams and Alpine reserve driver, Franco Colapinto, would take his place during this period, as part of a strategic decision to “rotate” the seat alongside number one driver, Pierre Gasly. This development followed an announcement the day before that Team Principal Oliver Oakes had resigned from his role with immediate effect. In the interim, Executive Advisor Flavio Briatore would assume Oakes’ responsibilities as Alpine navigated this transitional phase.
Jack is the son of Mick Doohan, a multiple 500cc World Champion in Moto GP.
