So #Gasly is staying at #AlphaTauri for at least one more year. 😔 I was expecting a surprise, but I guess he has one more year to figure things out// "Pedro Gaseoso" se queda al menos un año más en AT. 😔 Esperaba alguna sorpresa, pero pues tiene 1 año más para buscar otro. #F1

With Gasly being Torro Rossi's most successful driver in history, the fans are surprised he hasn't got a contract till 2028. It's not like Torro Rosso is ever going to be a bigger legend than Gasly hence should lock him down before other suitors steal him
