F1 News: Alpine driver Pierre Gasly Snags $5M Miami Condo

Miami, FL – February 7, 2026 – Formula 1 enthusiasts in the United States could soon spot Alpine driver Pierre Gasly (pictured) more frequently in the Sunshine State, as the French racer has secured a luxurious $4.9 million condominium in the upcoming Jean-Georges Miami Tropic Residences. This move not only cements Gasly’s growing affinity for Miami—home to the thrilling Miami Grand Prix since 2022—but also aligns with his jet-setting lifestyle amid a demanding F1 career.

The 3,712-square-foot unit, nestled in a 49-story tower designed by the acclaimed architecture firm Arquitectonica, boasts four bedrooms, four bathrooms, a private elevator, soaring 11-foot ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glass windows, and a bespoke kitchen crafted by Michelin-starred chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten.

Topping it off is a sprawling 1,163-square-foot private terrace offering breathtaking waterfront vistas of Downtown Miami and Biscayne Bay. The building, situated between the vibrant Design District and Midtown, is slated for completion in 2028 and will feature 338 residences alongside 27,500 square feet of ground-floor retail space.

Residents will enjoy an array of premium amenities spread across five floors, including an eighth-floor pool deck, a members-only restaurant and bar, a rooftop pool, a private dining room, an archival library, a juice bar, a mini-market, and a cozy lounge. On the ground level, Jean-Georges’ abc kitchens—a fusion of his celebrated abcV, abc cocina, and abc kitchen concepts—will serve as a culinary highlight.

“From the moment this opportunity was introduced to me, it felt like a natural fit,” Gasly stated in a press release. “As an F1 driver, my life is constantly on the move, so having a home where every detail is handled means everything. Miami Tropic Residences offers effortless living, thoughtful design, and a level of service I value—all in the heart of a city that has become a true global gathering place. The walkability, culture, and energy of the Design District perfectly reflect the lifestyle I enjoy.”

This purchase comes at a pivotal time for Gasly, who has been a fixture in the F1 paddock since his debut in 2017. Born on February 7, 1996, in Rouen, France, the 30-year-old driver has carved out an impressive career marked by resilience and standout performances. Gasly first burst onto the scene with Toro Rosso (now VCARB) at the 2017 Malaysian Grand Prix, quickly establishing himself as part of the Red Bull junior program.

His breakthrough moment arrived in 2020 with AlphaTauri, where he claimed his maiden Grand Prix victory at the chaotic Italian Grand Prix in Monza—becoming the first French driver to win an F1 race since Olivier Panis in 1996. Over his career, Gasly has amassed five podium finishes, including a dramatic third place at the 2023 Dutch Grand Prix and another at the rain-soaked 2024 São Paulo Grand Prix, both with Alpine. He also holds three fastest laps and has accumulated 458 career points across 178 race entries.

Gasly’s tenure with Alpine, which began in 2023, has seen mixed fortunes. In 2023, he finished 11th in the drivers’ standings with 62 points, highlighted by that Zandvoort podium. The following year, he secured 10th place with 42 points, adapting to the team’s evolving machinery. However, 2025 proved challenging, with Gasly ending the season in 18th position on just 22 points amid a mid-season driver swap—starting alongside rookie Jack Doohan before teaming up with Franco Colapinto. A disqualification at the Chinese Grand Prix for an underweight car added to the hurdles, but Gasly’s commitment to Alpine remains strong, with a contract extension through at least 2028.

As the 2026 F1 season kicks off next month, Gasly will look to rebound and capitalize on Alpine’s developments under the new regulations. His new Miami base could provide a welcome retreat during the North American swing of the calendar, including the Miami GP, where he’s previously shown strong pace—finishing as high as fourth in 2023. For U.S. fans, this investment signals even more opportunities to catch a glimpse of one of F1’s most charismatic figures off the track.
