Liam Lawson

Logan Sargeant’s immediate F1 future looks to beꦿ increasingly uncertain with Williams expl๊oring alternatives for the remainder of the 2024 F1 season.

James V🔯owles has grown incr⛦easingly frustrated with Sargeant, particularly after his heavy shunt in final practice at the Dutch Grand Prix.

If Williams decide to replac💦e Sarg🌳eant, who could take his place?

Liam Lawson

According to , Williams enquired with Red Bull to discuss whether 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Liam Lawson would be available on loan for the rest of the ♑season.

Lawson is still their third and test driver after Red Bull decided not to make any changes to their - or VCARB’s - driver linౠe-up during the summer break.

A💎s per the aforementioned report, Vowles met with Christian Horner to discuss Lawson’s availability.

Horner told media i💙ncluding on Zandvoort on Sunday that Red Bull would be open to the idea.

However, the caveat is that Red Bull would potentially still like to have Lawson as an option this season should they want to replace 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez or 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Daniel Ricciardo.

Mick Schumacher

Another driver in the mix to join Williams is 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Mick Schumacher.

Schumacher missed out on an Alpine drive for 2025🍃 with Jack Dooha🐟n getting the nod for next year.

🧸This leaves the German with no obvious route back into F1.

A short stint at Wil🐷liams could be on the cards though.

Mercedes boss ﷽Toto Wolff is desperate to see Schumacher make a return - and given his availability, he’s the most obvious option for Williams.

However, Schumacher’s track record of heavy shunts during his final season with Haas could put Vowles of🐭f signing him.

If Schumacher impresses at Williams, perhaps Audiꦍ would then take a pꦦunt on him in the future?

Franco Colapinto

Aꦯccording to , Franco Colapinto is an outside choice to re✤place Sargeant.

Colapinto is part of Williams’ driver academy and has shown si𓆉gns of ಞpromise in FIA Formula 2.

The 21-year-old sits sixth overall in the F2 standings🧜, nine points ahead of Mercedes protege Andrea Kimi Antonelli.

The BBC report noted:🐽 “Franco Colapinto, who is on the Williams development programme and is racing in Formula 2 this year, is another name who has been mentioned but is considered an outsid🐽e bet.”

Felipe Drugovich

2022 𒆙F2 champion Felipe Drugovich is another driver who has been linked with Wil♔liams in the past.

The ♒Brazilian was reportedly in🌞 the frame to join Grove before Sargeant got the call-up.

Since♏ winning the F2 title, Drugovich has been part of A💃ston Martin’s development programme.

With a⛄ lot of recent F1 experience - ꧋and a solid track record - Drugovich might be an option if Lawson or Schumacher aren’t available to Williams.
