Isack Hadjar

- Place of birth Paris, France
- Race Debut Australia, 2025 (Racing Bulls)
Hadjar bounced back from a so-so rookie F2™ campaign to push eventual champion Gabriel Bortoleto to the last race of last season in Abu Dhabi for the intermediate-category crown; Hadjar took a season-best four wins, all in feature races, with one of them coming in Melbourne.
The 20-year-old is arguably the least ready of the six drivers set to embark on their first full F1® seasons, but the stopwatch doesn’t lie. “He need a little bit of polishing, but he has the speed,” was Christian Horner’s assessment when Hadjar’s promotion was confirmed last December.
It shapes as a season of extremes, but one where there’s a chance for Hadjar to capitalise on circumstance.
