Fans reacted to this rumored salary by comparing Pierre Gasly to the Spaniard. Some of the best tweets were: "my man thinks he is fernando alonso" Pablo@BloopGG@formularacers_ my man thinks he is fernando alonso 1143@formularacers_ my man thinks he is fernando alonso "Alpine have lost it.

Ocon earns €5m or something and if Gasly earns €15m, don't really know what's going on with Otmar and Laurent management. Both have similar contract length with the similar background of achievement also. This would be crazy overpay." Fadhil@Fadhillakbar473@formularacers_ Don't even think Gasly is better than Ocon.

"I think they didn't offer two-year to Alonso because they were sure they had Piastri, and in the end they end up offering two year with Alonso money to a driver that most likely it's the worst out of the three."

Fans made fun of Alpine and praised the Frenchman for making the smart decision and switching teams for the huge sum of money offered. Some fans called the pay illogical and even went on to say that his new teammate Esteban Ocon, currently on a €5 million salary was better. F1 community stands with Pierre Gasly as he narrowly avoids a life threatening accident at Suzuka Pierre Gasly narrowly missed a truck on the track in Suzuka last weekend. The incident caused an uproar in the F1 community. Fans, drivers and team members alike called for the FIA to launch a formal investigation into what a truck was doing on the track with cars still lapping. Pierre Gasly had left the pit after changing the front wing of his car when he narrowly avoided a truck standing on the track ready to clear up the crashed car of Carlos Sainz. The crash led to a red flag and all the other cars were behind the safety car, with Gasly trying to catch up to the pack when he encountered the truck. The incident could have proven fatal like the one eight years back on the same circuit under the same weather conditions when Jules Bianchi crashed his Marussia into a crane. The driver died after going into a coma. Pierre Gasly luckily survived the incident without harm but a review of the matter has been promised by the FIA.
