Pierre Gasly made his first entry into F1, five years back at the 2017 Malaysian GP

Pierre Gasly made his Formula One race debut at the 2017 Malaysian Grand Prix with Toro Rosso, replacing Daniil Kvyat. He finished the Malaysian and Japanese Grand Prix outside the points.

Gasly was expected to take Carlos Sainz Jr.’s seat at the United States Grand Prix after Sainz left for Renault, but he was forced to miss the race because of a clash with the final round of the 2017 Super Formula Championship. He returned to the team for the Mexican Grand Prix, partnering with Brendon Hartley after the team dropped Kvyat from the Red Bull programme.

He finished the 2020 season tenth in the drivers’ championship – with 75 points, ahead of teammate Kvyat’s 32 points. Gasly continues to race for Alpha Tauri and recently signed a new contract till the end of the 2023 season.
