“I’m fairly sure you’ll see all this cleared up before we get to September. That’s the normal time.

But I’m pretty sure you’ll find it all cemented by then.” “We’re continually evaluating it,” said Vowles when asked if he would consider a driver swap before F1 2024 is over?
As for potential alternate threats to Sargeant’s seat should Sainz not join Williams, Vowles was asked where their academy driver Franco Colapinto, who made his FP1 debut at Silverstone, fits into this equation? “I like recognising that we have a strong young driver programme.
