Isack Hadjar

Isack Hadjar is a French racing driver born on 28 September 2004. A Red Bull junior, he finished runner-up in the 2024 FIA Formula 2 championship after a season of strong wins and consistency, earning his Formula 1 promotion. He has scored 102 points across 33 starts to date.

Hadjar made his F1 debut in 2025 with the Red Bull-owned RB team. After a chastening retirement on the formation lap of his very first race in Australia, he recovered impressively to score regular points, claim a maiden podium and finish 12th in the championship on 51 points, marking himself out as one of the most promising rookies of the year. That form earned a rapid promotion to the senior Red Bull Racing squad for 2026.

In 2026 Hadjar lines up at Red Bull Racing alongside Max Verstappen. After nine rounds he sits eighth in the drivers' standings on 52 points as he adapts to a front-running team in only his second season.

Hadjar is a fast and combative driver whose emotional intensity is matched by an ability to bounce back from setbacks, a trait he showed repeatedly during his rookie F1 year. Rated as one of Red Bull's brightest junior graduates, his swift elevation to the senior team alongside Verstappen makes him one of the grid's most closely watched young talents.
