Alpine make Franco Colapinto axe decision after latest blow in testing crash

Argentine racer Franco Colapinto has yet to score a point for Alpine since replacing Jack Doohan earlier this season and there is increasing pressure on his place in Formula 1 Franco Colapinto is set to get the rest of the season to save his Formula 1 career. The Argentine's place with Alpine has been under increasing scrutiny amid his failure to score a single point since replacing Jack Doohan earlier this year. ‌ Colapinto was signed in the off-season from Williams, who had fielded him nine times in the 2024 campaign but had no room in their driver line-up to retain him this year. He joined Alpine initially as a reserve driver, his presence alone suggesting Doohan's days were numbered. ‌ And that turned out to be the case. Just six rounds into the season, having failed to register a point, Doohan was dropped back into a reserve role and Colapinto elevated into a race seat. ‌ The Alpine press release announcing that switch in May stated that Colapinto had been given an initial five-race period to show what he could do. Eight events later and the 22-year-old remains in the seat. That is despite some uninspiring results and a failed to score a point so far. He has finished above 15th place in a Grand Prix just twice so far, thanks to a couple of 13th-placed results in Monaco and Canada. He did not help his case this week by crashing in a Pirelli tyre test at the Hungaroring. An Alpine spokesperson confirmed that Colapinto had been assessed by medics on site and was uninjured despite losing control of the car at turn 11 and burying the car into a barrier. Yet, there has been patience shown to him by the team and its leader Flavio Briatore. The Italian, who is technically an adviser to the Renault board but who has been given full control of the struggling F1 outfit, has publicly called for more time to be given to Colapinto. And that seems to be what the team is set to do in terms of its immediate plans for that seat. As it stands, Colapinto will continue to race for the team after the summer break and could get until the end of the season to find improved form, reports PlanetF1.

Doohan remains eager for a second chance to show what he can do, while Alpine also have Paul Aron on the books and waiting for his first chance to race in F1. The Estonian racer finished third in last year's Formula 2 championship, behind Isack Hadjar and title-winner Gabriel Bortoleto. Both of them have graduated to F1 while Aron signed a reserve deal with Alpine and has represented both the Enstone team and Sauber in practice sessions so far this year.

Hunter Doohan teases ‘Wednesday' season two after Saint Laurent appearance in Paris

Hunter Doohan is stepping back into the spotlight with the return of Netflix's hit series Wednesday, which premieres its highly anticipated second season this August. Known for his role as Tyler Galpin, Doohan has kept quiet about the plot but promises the new episodes are 'bigger and better.' 'I'm sorry it took three years,' he told WWD, acknowledging fans' long wait. Season one left Tyler revealed as a murderous hyde; in season two, he dives deeper into the show's gothic fantasy. 'This time I really felt like from the start I was living in the heightened genre of the world,' he said. Fresh off the runway circuit, Doohan recently attended Saint Laurent's Spring 2026 men's show in Paris. Though new to the fashion scene, the Arkansas native, who grew up wearing Buckle jeans, now embraces designer looks. He chose a sleek suiting separates outfit for the show, skipping leather pants after a humorous back-and-forth with his team. 'Someone said, 'I don't know if you're a leather guy,'' he joked. The event also brought unexpected highlights, including meeting actress Cristin Milioti. 'I was obsessed,' he said. Doohan's schedule remains packed. He'll soon fly to New Zealand to shoot the upcoming Evil Dead Burn film. Later this year, he's set to appear in The Wilderness, an indie project. Despite his growing list of roles, many dark and twisted, Doohan is eyeing lighter terrain. 'I think I need to maybe play a few less murderers,' he quipped. 'Maybe do a comedy.' From Fort Smith, Arkansas, to Netflix stardom and Paris Fashion Week, Doohan's rise is equal parts grit, charm, and unexpected style. And with season two of Wednesday around the corner, he's ready to thrill audiences again, spoiler-free.

Paramedic who secretly gave woman drug to abort their child jailed for 10 years

A paramedic who caused a pregnant woman to miscarry after secretly putting abortion drugs inside her during sex has been jailed for ten years. Stephen Doohan, 33, from Edinburgh, researched the topic of abortion online after the woman told him she was pregnant. Doohan, who worked for the Scottish Ambulance Service (SAS), was married when he met the woman on holiday in Spain in 2021 and began a long-distance relationship. In March 2023, the woman travelled to Edinburgh to see him after learning she was pregnant, the High Court in Glasgow heard. On March 17, Doohan inserted an abortion drug in her vagina without her knowledge during consensual sex, and the following day insisted on seeing her underwear after she noticed white discharge, the court heard. Doohan had previously pleaded guilty to sexual assault and depositing a drug into her vagina causing her to abort, and depositing with intent to cause her to abort. On Monday at the High Court in Glasgow, he was sentenced to ten years and six months in prison. The court heard that while off-duty, Doohan checked for information about the drug on a work system just two days before he first gave it to the victim. He convinced the woman to lie to medics at the Edinburgh Royal Infirmary because he thought he would be arrested if she told the truth. The victim attended another regional hospital with her sister and was told that she was having a miscarriage. The court heard that in May 2023, the woman complained to the SAS, which launched an investigation. During sentencing, Judge Lord Colbeck said that Doohan had told the victim that he did not want children, but she later became pregnant. He said the victim's suspicions were raised after discovering the unusual discharge in her underwear and suffering stomach cramps. The judge said she returned to Doohan's flat and looked under his mattress when he went to the toilet, where she found some tablets. Lord Colbeck added: 'The complainer then carried out an internet search for abortion tablets and confronted you over your actions.' Defending, Mark Stewart KC, said: 'I express Mr Doohan's deep sorrow and regret for the actions he is now in the court charged with. 'His position is that he is filled with remorse for the harm he has caused, and the breach of trust his actions represented.' The court heard that Doohan had been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and that he had no previous convictions. Mr Stewart described Doohan's life as 'positive and useful'.
