Piastri will be at McLaren regardless next season, if the contract dispute goes Alpines way then they’ll end up getting a payout from McLaren to settle things, with millions on the table you can bet they’ll fight it. No chance Piastri goes to Alpine for one year and then refuses to resign and leaves anyways.
Some small ish rumours of Gasly to Alpine and Herta to AT but Herta doesn’t have a super license so that wouldn’t work without some kind of exemption or a ton of practice hours to get him the points needed
