The most wanted man in F1? After bouncing back from Red Bull heartbreak, Albon looks set to be a key player in the 2025 driver market
Alex Albon is living proof that if you get knocked down in motor racing, you can get back up and be significantly stronger for it. The Thai driver’s future in F1 looked bleak when he was dropped as a race driver by Red Bull at the end of the 2020.
But he took the olive branch handed out by the energy drinks company with both hands by accepting a reserve role, and set about using the additional chance to first rebuild his confidence, then develop an inner steel to strengthen his resolve and help efficiently utilise his immense talent on a race track.
