Logan Sargeant’s next move after Formula 1 has finally been revealed, with fans eager to see how he gets on following his dismissal by Williams.
The American was dropped after the Dutch Grand Prix by Williams following an expensive crash in practice, whereby he destroyed his FW46 and was forced to miss qualifying.
The incident not only cost them thousands in repairs, which added to Williams mounting crash damage bill in 2024, but also prevented them from starting strong at a circuit they were most likely to score points.
F1 paddock rumours went into overdrive following the crash, with Williams duly announcing that Franco Colapinto would be replacing the American for the remainder of the season.
Now that Sargeant has been out of a drive for several months, plans for his racing comeback have finally emerged on social media.
