Research notes and caveats

2026 pairing with Franco Colapinto confirmed: Colapinto was confirmed as Alpine's second 2026 driver (alongside Gasly) on 7 Nov 2025, and RacingNews365/PlanetF1/F1 Oversteer 2026 lists state Barlow continues as his race engineer. F1 debut taken as 2016 (Manor, with Wehrlein) per Wikipedia; years_to_race_engineer (~9) measured from that 2016 F1 entry to his 2025 promotion to race engineer. Some intermediate dates (Oxford Brookes graduation year, CRS/Alan Docking and Wirth Research dates) are not precisely sourced and are left empty. The DTM/IndyCar spells are categorised 'other'. No radio nickname found in public sources.
