Paul Aron is to make his F1 grand prix weekend debut at the British Grand Prix for Sauber.
Alpine F1 junior Paul Aron will have his grand prix weekend debut at Silverstone, driving for Stake. He will step in for Nico Hulkenberg on Friday and participate in his first F1 weekend. Aron, who last raced for Hitech in FIA F2 in 2024, is currently an official Alpine F1 junior.
Although Aron has been the Stake reserve driver for several races, this weekend will be his first opportunity to test the car. Stake had Gabriel Bortoleto participate in two rookie FP1 sessions earlier in the season. Aron will also replace Hulkenberg in FP1 at the Hungaroring before the summer break. Stake achieved its first double points finish since 2023 with Bortoleto and Hulkenberg in the Austrian GP, with Bortoleto securing his first F1 points.
