The Formula 1 driver market is more exciting in 2024 than it has ever been, and the action doesn’t seem to be over yet, despite the season being almost two-thirds over.
Williams have suffered from Logan Sargeant’s poor form throughout the campaign, and the Dutch Grand Prix could be the last straw for team principal James Vowles.
His serious crash in the final practice session at Zandvoort ruled Sargeant out of qualifying and caused even more costly damage.
With prize money running into the millions of pounds depending on the team’s position in the Manufacturers’ Championship, it seems Vowles needs to make a change before Carlos Sainz joins the team in 2025.
Speaking on the Pit Talk Podcast, journalist Mat Coch shared the latest he’s heard about who could become Alex Albon’s teammate after the Italian Grand Prix.
That’s where German racer Mick Schumacher comes in.
Schumacher is a member of the Mercedes team this year as well as driving for Alpine in the World Endurance Championship.
