Isack Hadjar received his maiden outing during a race weekend at the Mexican Grand Prix with AlphaTauri and impressed Team Principal Franz Tost, who has backed the Frenchman for a future full-time seat in Formula 1.
AlphaTauri Team Principal Franz Tost believes that Isack Hadjar has the potential to secure a full-time Formula 1 seat in the future. Hadjar, who substituted for Yuki Tsunoda during the Mexico Grand Prix weekend, made his F1 debut with the Red Bull sister team. While Red Bull has a successful junior programme, AlphaTauri has had to seek drivers from outside the programme recently. Tost was impressed by Hadjar’s performance during the FP1 session, where he provided good technical feedback and demonstrated calmness and adaptability with different tyre compounds. Tost expects that Hadjar will soon make his way to Formula 1. Prior to the FP1 outing, Hadjar had never driven an F1 car before, but Tost expressed confidence in his abilities and encouraged him to enjoy the experience without feeling pressured.
