The 21-year-old is set to become the first American to drive in F1 since Alexander Rossi in 2015 and would partner 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Albon to complete Williams’ driver line-up for 2023, replacing168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Nicholas Latifi. 

Sargeant has enjoyed a strong rookie year in the F2 championship to emerge as a frontrunner in the series, having claimed two feature race ♔victories.

However, the American is not yet guaranteed an FIA superlicence that will allow him tﷺo race in F1 next year. To do so, Sargeant must leave next month’s🧸 final round in Abu Dhabi placed sixth or higher in the championship. 

Sargeant currently lies third on 135 points but is just nine points clear of Jack Doohan, Jehan Daruvala aღnd sixth-placed Enzo Fittipaldi and is at threat of dropping out of the position he requires if he suffers a shoc🐲ker in the finale. 

He currently hܫas 28 points of the 40 required 🥀to earn a superlicence. 

Capito announced Williams' plan on Saturday ahead of this weekend’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:United States Grand Prix, one day after Sargeant made his F1 practice debut with 🅷the Grove-based outfit at COTA. 

Sargeant will take part in two further practice sessions for Williams in Mex꧑ico and Abu Dhabi, as൲ well as the post-season young driver test. 

Capito said Williams believe Sargeant i♓s "absoಞlutely ready" to race in F1. 

Sargeant’s impending promotion will leave just one seat left to fill on the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:F1 2023 grid - at Haas, with incumbent168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Mick Schumacher and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Nico Hulkenberg in direct competition to be 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Kevin Magnussen’s teammate.
