The 29-year-old had made his debut in the sport with Toro Rosso in 2017 and was initially promoted to the senior team at the start of the 2019 season, only to be dropped in the middle of the year.

After being demoted to the Faenza-based outfit, Gasly was able to find his speed and had some extraordinary performances, which included a race victory in the 2020 Italian Grand Prix, along with two other podiums in Brazil and Baku.

"I am delighted to confirm @PierreGasly is extending his contract until the end of 2028.
