- Race Debut Australia, 2025 (Racing Bulls)
That’s not to underrate the 21-year-old’s excellent 2025 with Racing Bulls – a season that came about after Sergio Perez was replaced as Max Verstappen’s teammate, creating a gap in Red Bull’s two teams that needed filling – but Hadjar will need all the help he can get alongside the dominant Dutchman in a seat that means you end up with another team once you’re inevitably dumped. If you’re lucky.
Hadjar ended 2025 as the second highest-scoring rookie on the grid but as the one who exceeded expectations the most, his scorching one-lap speed seeing him make Q3 16 times. That – and how hard Hadjar is on himself when he can’t live up to his own lofty standards – bodes well as he tackles a task that’s been beyond his predecessors.
