But what would be the benefit for Piastri?
He is an unknown quantity and Alpine have supported him all through his career and if Alonso were to leave he would have been guaranteed the seat in a supportive environment
It looks more like Alonso stiched uo everybody by not being honest(if rumours are to be believed) about his AM deal which left both Alpine in a tough situation and Piastri probably lost a sure fire seat because of this
If this turns out to be true I would wonder why do teams would like to sign Alonso when he turns out to be a liability and only looking after himself? Also this would be poor behaviour from a 2 times world champion in his 40s. I would expect more professionalism from him
Again these are all speculations and I am sure we will find out the truth quite soon
