Red Bull junior driver Arvid Lindblad remains “very motivated and focused” on reaching F1 for the 2026 season, a goal he confidently shared with compatriot Lando Norris four years ago. Lindblad, 17, transitioned from karting to F2 after a successful F3 season in which he displayed promising results, including a victory at Silverstone. Lindblad now competes for Racing Bulls and is poised to take Isack Hadjar’s seat at Campos Racing in F2. Despite his friend’s doubts, Lindblad approached Norris during a karting race, echoing iconic moments in motorsport history. With support from Red Bull and expectations set high, Lindblad aims to follow in the footsteps of his role model, Max Verstappen, and become a world champion in Formula 1.
