Red Bull confirms Isack Hadjar's return for the Baku Grand Prix

Red Bull Racing announced that French driver Isack Hadjar will race again at the Baku Grand Prix after missing three events due to a wrist injury.

Red Bull Racing issued a statement confirming that Isack Hadjar is fit to compete at the upcoming Azerbaijan Grand Prix in Baku, ending a nearly two-month hiatus caused by a wrist injury sustained during summer testing. The French rookie missed the previous three races at Zandvoort, Monza and Madrid. During that period, Liam Lawson was promoted from the sister team Racing Bulls to fill the seat, accumulating 14 points across the three events.

The team praised Lawson's professionalism and contributions under challenging circumstances. Meanwhile, Yuki Tsunoda, who covered for Lawson at Racing Bulls, will revert to his role as reserve driver. Hadjar is expected to take the wheel on Thursday at the urban circuit.

Why it matters

Hadjar's comeback restores Red Bull's driver lineup for a key race and highlights the team's depth of talent.
