Hadjar ammette i timori pre-promozione riguardo al secondo sedile Red Bull

Isack Hadjar ha ammesso di aver nutrito iniziali preoccupazioni riguardo all'instabile secondo sedile della Red Bull prima della sua promozione al fianco di Max Verstappen nel 2026, nonostante fosse il suo obiettivo fin dall'inizio. La stagione da rookie del ventunenne con la Racing Bulls—caratterizzata da 51 punti, il 12° posto in campionato e un podio al Gran Premio d'Olanda—gli è valsa il posto a Milton Keynes, tra voci di corridoio e il supporto di ex piloti Red Bull.

Hadjar ha impressionato al suo debutto in F1 nel 2025 con la Racing Bulls, mettendosi in luce con un podio a Zandvoort. Parlando alla F1 dopo essersi assicurato il sedile Red Bull—precedentemente sostenuto da ex compagni di squadra come Alex Albon e Sergio Perez—ha rivelato di aver apprezzato la pressione nonostante il limitato chilometraggio pre-stagionale e lo stress iniziale.

'Sono entrato subito nel ritmo', ha detto Hadjar. 'Sapevo che se avessi fatto il mio lavoro in modo naturale, avrei ottenuto il sedile, la promozione'.

Il passaggio lo posiziona al fianco del quattro volte campione Verstappen per il 2026, un ruolo segnato da una recente instabilità ma agevolato dai cambiamenti regolamentari in arrivo.
