Piastri: I will not be driving for Alpine next year

Oscar Piastri insists that he "will not be driving for Alpine next year", hours after the team announced they would be promoting him to a full time race seat in 2023.

"I understand that, without my agreement, Alpine F1 have put out a press release late this afternoon that I am driving for them next year. This is wrong and I have not signed a contract with Alpine for 2023. I will not be driving for Alpine next year", he wrote on Twitter.
