Formula 1: Alpine Driver Franco Colapinto Crashes During Tyre Test At Hungaroring

Hungarian Grand Prix: Under-pressure Alpine driver Franco Colapinto suffered a crash during a Pirelli tyre test at the Hungaroring on Wednesday, prompting a brief medical assessment but escaping without serious injury.

The incident occurred on day two of testing as teams continued evaluations of Pirelli’s 2026 tyre prototypes, part of a major regulation overhaul set to reshape Formula 1 next season.

The Argentine racer lost control at Turn 11—a fast 142-mph right-hander with minimal run-off—and was taken to the circuit’s medical centre. Alpine later confirmed that Colapinto had been cleared after the check-up.
