“And that’s the importa♓nt point, we are working with him. We want him to succeed, and we want him in the c🍬ar next year.

“This is very much on us as well. We have taken someone straight from Formula 2, without any significant testing, put him a day and half in Bahrain in this car, and then wished them well on a season that has been awfully challenging for rookies, full stop.♔”
Speaking in Qatar on Thursday, Albon also offer𝔉ed his support for Sargeant to remain wit🤡h the team in 2024.
“I’m not the one to decide,” he said. “I know 🌳Logan pretty well. I see his performance, he doesn’t get the credit he deserves.
