Isack Hadjar will make the step up from Formula 2 to F1 with Red Bull’s junior team, Racing Bulls, replacing 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Liam Lawson.

It’s been a busy last few days for Red Bull, which on Wednesday announced 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez's departure from the team.

Then, on Thursday morning, Lawson was announced as a Red Bull driver, partnering 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen for the 2025 F1 season.

The vacancy at Racing Bulls will be filled𝔍 by Hadjar.

The 20-year-old Frenchman is the latest talent in Red Bull’s young driver programme to get a chance in F1, following the likes of Verstappen, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sebastian Vettel, and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Daniel Ricciardo.

Hadjar finished second in t🉐he 2024 F2 standings, narrowly missing out on the title to Sauber rookie Gabriel Bortoleto.

He will race alongside Yuki Tsunoda,ꦫ who was 💮overlooked by Red Bull in terms of a promotion.

Speaking of the news, Hadjar said: “I’m very excited to step into my new role at VCARB, this is huge for myself, my family and all the people who have b𒅌elieved in me from the beginning.

“The journey from karting through the ranks in single-seaters, to now being꧒ in Formula One is the moment Iౠ’ve been working towards my whole life, it is the dream. I feel like I’m stepping into a whole new universe, driving a much faster car and racing with the best drivers in the world.

“It’ll be a huge learning cu♏rve, but I’m ready to work hard and do th൩e best I can for the team.

“I look forward to working with and learning from Yuki. I’ve always 🍨looked up to him, he went through the Red Bull Junior Programme, like myself, and we’ve shared a similar path to F1. He’s very experienced and will be good to learn from.”

Another rookie on the 2025 F1 grid
