Williams facing headache over Sargeant conundrum
Logan Sargeant’s poor performance at the Japanese Grand Prix has further jeopardized his chances of being retained for next season. The rookie driver has been involved in a series of crashes recently, including one that resulted in the destruction of his front wing during the Singapore Grand Prix. Sargeant needed a strong performance at Suzuka to regain his confidence and mental strength for the remaining races this year. However, he pushed too hard during qualifying and crashed into the barriers, disappointing the Williams team. The race didn’t go any better for Sargeant as he collided with Valtteri Bottas, causing both drivers to retire. His performance relative to his teammate Alexander Albon was initially praised, but the increase in speed has been accompanied by frequent incidents. Liam Lawson and Felipe Drugovich have shown more promise in their limited appearances, making them potential options for Williams.
