Williams boss James Vowles has once again reiterated that there can be no guarantees that Logan Sargeant will complete the 2024 Formula 1 season with the team. Sargeant’s time as a Williams F1 driver will come to an end once the campaign concludes amid the announcement that Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz will replace him in 2025. […]
Sargeant will no longer be a Williams F1 driver after this season ends, as Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz will replace him in 2025. The team’s Head of Performance Engineering, James Vowles, emphasized the need for Sargeant to perform well in each race to secure his spot for the remaining events of the current season. Sargeant, the only non-Sauber driver without a point in the first 14 races, struggled earlier in the season due to outdated car components compared to his teammate, Alex Albon. Despite facing challenges, Vowles expects Sargeant to be a competitive match for Albon now that both are on equal car specifications. Vowles highlighted Sargeant’s progress in recent races and stressed the importance of continuing to improve and earn his place on the team. Additionally, Vowles confirmed that he maintains regular communication with Sargeant and dismissed rumors of any discord between them, emphasizing the need for both drivers to perform well for the team’s success.
