It was a tough rookie campaign for Sargeant though, but to their credit, Williams stuck by their driver into 2024, backing him to improve.

This, unfortunately, failed to materialize, with Williams ultimately pulling the plug on Sargeant's stay with them after a huge crash at the Dutch Grand Prix in August.

Now, though, he is clearly keen to get back to racing with the 2025 season fast approaching.

Recently, for example, Sargeant completed an IndyCar test at Thermal with Meyer Shank Racing, and now, it has been confirmed he has a new seat for next season.
