Born on 7 February 1996, Pierre Gasly is a French racing talent currently competing for Alpine in Formula One.
His impressive career includes clinching the 2016 GP2 Series championship and securing the runner-up position in both the 2014 Formula Renault 3.5 Series and the 2017 Super Formula Championship.
Gasly began his Formula One journey with Toro Rosso during the 2017 Malaysian Grand Prix and in 2019, he was promoted to the parent team of Red Bull Racing. After disappointing results he was soon swapped with Alexander Albon from Toro Rosso mid-season, and returned to the Toro Rosso team.
Despite this setback, Gasly marked his first podium at the 2019 Brazilian Grand Prix by finishing second for Toro Rosso. The subsequent year, while racing for the team, now rebranded as AlphaTauri, he achieved his inaugural win at the 2020 Italian Grand Prix, and AlphaTauri’s first-ever victory in Formula One. His prowess was further highlighted with another podium at the 2021 Azerbaijan Grand Prix, finishing behind Sergio Pérez and Sebastian Vettel.
In 2023, Gasly moved to Alpine. His debut with the team was at the 2023 Bahrain Grand Prix, securing a ninth-place finish. Later that season, at the Dutch Grand Prix, he clinched his fourth career podium by finishing third, owing to a penalty that demoted Sergio Pérez to fourth.
