Alex Albon anticipates helping Logan Sargeant as it is almost certain that he will enter Williams in 2023.
Prior to the rookie’s anticipated debut at Williams, Alex Albon thinks it is “inevitable” that he will assume a leadership role as well as provide support to Logan Sargeant.
Sargeant, who participated in Free Practice 1 at the United States and Mexican Grands Prix to make his F1 weekend debut, has been all but certain to join the squad in 2023 if he accumulates enough superlicence points.
The American presently possesses 28 out of the 40 superlicence points necessary to be allowed to compete in Formula 1 the following year.
Currently, Sargeant needs to finish no lower than fifth in the F2 Drivers’ rankings to qualify for a superlicense. He is now in third place.
Albon hopes more support for Sargeant
Since entering Williams for the 2022 season, Albon has begun to establish himself as a team leader. The British-Thai racer has surpassed Nicholas Latifi, who will leave the team at the completion of the current season.
Albon was questioned by RacingNews365.com on his level of involvement with Sargeant’s latest work for the squad during a press conference following the Mexican Grand Prix.
“Not too much. Not at the moment,” Albon explained.
“[I’ve been] helping him just in his FP1 stuff, but I’m sure that will increase.”
Albon is prepared to provide advice
When asked how he felt about imparting his knowledge to Sargeant, Albon acknowledged that it was a common task for teammates and one he had previously gone through.
“I think it’s inevitable, with just how you talk, with how you explain the car,” the former Red Bull driver said.
“I did the same when I was teammates with Daniil Kvyat and Max [Verstappen]. You just learn from the normal talk.”
