In an attempt to boost their championship chances in the fight against the ever-growing strengths of McLaren and Ferrari, Red Bull have now signed Liam Lawson, promoting him from junior team RB, with F2 star Isack Hadjar taking his place alongside Yuki Tsunoda.

Red Bull finished third in the 2024 constructors' standings and will no doubt be eyeing improving on that position heading into 2025.

Hadjar reveals Marko's contract commitment

Ahead of his debut season in the pinnacle of motorsport, Red Bull junior Hadjar has revealed the dedicated lengths that Red Bull went to to complete the formalities of his F1 contract.

In a world of emails and online signings, this included team chief Helmut Marko, who is 81 years old, personally travelling to Italy to sign Hadjar's deal.

"It really touches me that Helmut came all the way to Italy to personally sign my contract," Hadjar told Canal+.

The French-Algerian racer clearly appreciated the effort, the 81-year-old F1 advisor having championed the young star's talent.

"I owe him a lot," Hadjar added.

"The relationship I have with him is more than just boss-employee.

"If things aren’t going well, he won’t just criticize me. He respects me as a person and my approach to the sport."
