The world of formula 1 is again in the eye of the hurricane. This time, the center of the controversy is the young Argentine pilotFranco frankntoto, who has recently been involved in what many already call the darkest scandal of the 2025 season.

It all started after the Monaco Grand Prix, when Colapinto, who had achieved an outstanding classification during the practice sessions, suffered inexplicable technical problems in his single -seaplane minutes before the official classification. At that time, his team attributed the failures to “minor electrical errors.” However, new leaks have revealed aPossible internal sabotage operation, which has unleashed a true storm inside the paddock.

According to anonymous sources within the Alpine surroundings, a team in which Colapinto exercises as a pilot reserves with possibilities of ownership in 2026,Certain team members would have deliberately altered the car’s key configurations, affecting engine performance and energy management. All this, apparently, with the objective ofstop the meteoric ascent of the South American pilot, who has captured the attention of sponsors, media and fans around the world.

The reason behind this alleged sabotage, according to experts, lies in internal tensions. Colapinto would have surpassed more antiquity pilots and greater salary within the team, which would have generated internal political jealousy and pressures. In addition, it is rumored that Flavio Briatore, Alpine special advisor, would not see with good eyes the prominence that the Argentine is taking, especially by pressure of new South American sponsors.

Before the seriousness of the situation,The FIA ​​has announced a formal investigation, and it is expected that in the next few days statements will be taken to both engineers and team managers. For its part, Colapinto has maintained a firm and professional posture. In a brief statement to the press, he said:

“I came to run, not to play politics. I trust that the truth will come to light.”

Social networks have exploded in support of the young pilot. The hashtag#JusticiaparacolapintoHe has been a worldwide trend, and thousands of Argentine fans have expressed their outrage at what they consider a maneuver to silence Latin American talent in F1.

The situation has highlighted a deeper problem: the struggle of power within the shields and how economic and political interests can hinder the development of new promises of motoring.

What seemed to be a simple technical failure has become aInternational scandal that could change the future of collapint and, possibly, Alpine’s internal structure. All eyes are now put in the FIA, which must determine whether it is an isolated incident or a larger sabotage network than we imagine.
