Red Bull's Hadjar to return at Azerbaijan Grand Prix
Red Bull driver Isack Hadjar will return at this week's Azerbaijan Grand Prix after missing the past three races with a wrist injury.
Isack Hadjar is set to return to Red Bull for the Azerbaijan Grand Prix following a successful recovery from a wrist injury that kept him out of three Formula 1 races. The team announced Tuesday that Hadjar will drive for Red Bull at this week's Baku City Circuit. Hadjar injured his wrist during an F1 mid-season break, reportedly while participating in a boxing workout.
Liam Lawson replaced Hadjar for the Dutch, Italian, and Spanish Grand Prix races, with Yuki Tsunoda returning to F1 in Lawson's usual seat. Red Bull praised Lawson for his professionalism, dedication, and hard work during the three races. The Azerbaijan Grand Prix is being held on a Saturday due to a public holiday, with practice on Thursday and qualifying on Friday.
Lawson, Max Verstappen's teammate, had a strong showing as sixth in Madrid this month, showcasing the competitive nature of the current F1 cars.
