As his father Jean later clarified, they had "banked on the wrong team", with the Frenchman eventually switching to MP Motorsport for the final three rounds.

Alesi made his debut in the Super Formula on 25 April 2021 filling in for Kazuki Nakajima in the TOM'S team;[13][14] he would finish 11th in the series, getting a win at Autopolis, having converted it from a pole position.
