Logan Sargeant will be out of action in Formula 1 this weekend in Australia. Alexander Albon crashed hard during FP1, damaging the car, including the chassis. The team needs to replace that, but one is not available in Melbourne. Therefore, Albon will finish FP3, qualifying, and the race. The internet reacted with shock at this.

Wow so Williams have actually taken the decision to give Albon the chassis that Sargeant was using... Absolutely savage for Logan I won't lie as it was Alex who crashed, but I guess every single point matters
