Logan Sargeant is set to make his Formula 1 debut with Williams next season
Williams have confirmed Logan Sargeant will drive for them in 2023 if he earns the required number of super licence points by the end of the current Formula 2 season.
Speaking ahead of United States Grand Prix qualifying on Saturday, Williams team principal Jost Capito announced the decision to partner the 21-year-old American with Alex Albon next season, with Nicholas Latifi’s exit from the team having been confirmed in September.
