First look at Albon in Red Bull gear

Alexander Albon will be firmly in the spotlight in a week's time when he makes the step up to Red Bull Racing at the Belgian Grand Prix.

With just 12 grands prix behind him, Albon was selected for promotion as Red Bull reacted to Pierre Gasly's under-performance by relegating the Frenchman back to Toro Rosso.

Red Bull have confirmed that Albon will be assessed in the lead car over the remainder of 2019, as they ponder who should partner Max Verstappen next year.

It certainly looks like Albon will look the part, with images of him in Red Bull gear emerging on F1's platforms.
