Racing Bulls excited about Hadjar's arrival: 'Will make a great team with Yuki'

With Racing Bulls' confirmation of Isack Hadjar, the Formula 1 grid for 2025 is complete. Team boss Laurent Mekies and CEO Peter Bayer are delighted with the French-Algerian driver's arrival.

Logically, Hadjar is over the moon with his big move from Formula 2, but Mekies and Bayer are also delighted with their new addition. "We’re excited to have Isack with us next year, bringing a new and fresh dynamic to the team alongside Yuki in 2025," explains team boss Mekies.

"His journey to Formula One has been nothing short of outstanding, he has shown remarkable growth, with a series of impressive results in the junior single-seater ranks. He has the talent and drive necessary to compete at the highest level, and we have every confidence that he will adapt quickly and make a significant impact," he adds.

Mekies expects the combination of Hadjar and Tsunoda to work well. "I believe Isack and Yuki will make a great team. Yuki brings invaluable experience to the team, he’s shown incredible resilience and maturity, which will be crucial for the team as we strive to hit all our aims and objectives in 2025."

Bayer also welcomes Hadjar's arrival. "Firstly, we must congratulate Liam for his step up to Red Bull Racing. As a sister team and as an incubator for Formula One talent, our strategic objective is to foster and nurture our drivers in preparation for this next step," said the Racing Bulls CEO.
