The upcoming season will be the third consecutive one with the team for Nicholas Latifi, but instead of George Russell – who will be joining Lewis Hamilton at Mercedes – this time it will be Alex Albon driving as his teammate.
For Albon it will be a band new chance to experience Formula 1 after sitting back for a year as Red Bull and AlphaTauri’s reserve driver.
