Logan Sargeant is a rookie and still the only one who has not scored any points in F1

Logan Sargeant is a rookie, a beginner driver in Formula 1. The Williams driver is even less successful than his more experienced teammate Alexander Albon after 10 races. The Thai driver manages to score points several times with his Williams. A feat that the young American driver has not yet achieved, being the only driver on the 2023 grid to have not scored any points in his career.

“The 22-year-old driver uses Alexander Albon’s performance to learn as quickly as possible. He is an excellent driver to learn from, and honestly, outside of races, we get along very well and have a good laugh together. So he is an excellent teammate, a very fast driver that I’m trying to keep up with. But honestly, I think he has been one of the best drivers on the grid this year. It’s really great to have that as a reference point and see where I need to go,” Logan Sargeant explained to the media after Austria.

The driver is currently last in the championship, driving for his Williams team. The American has not scored any points in 10 races. It is extremely difficult, as you can imagine, to compete against 19 of the best drivers in the world. It is so close between 8th and 20th place. If you make a slight mistake, it can make the difference between the top 10 and last place. So, it is the biggest challenge, making sure to be at your best every day. I feel like it’s coming. I am getting more and more comfortable with it. The goal is therefore to reach a point where I can extract everything the car has in it throughout a weekend. continued the driver.

In Austria, for example, the 20 drivers were separated by less than 9 tenths of a second during the early parts of the qualifying sessions. The slightest mistake or imperfection in a qualifying lap makes it impossible to advance to Q2.

The Williams driver has just completed the best weekend of his young F1 career, achieving a 13th place in Austria. To be honest, Austria was a good weekend overall, but I couldn’t get in sync during qualifying. Sunday was good because it was more of a reflection of our pace throughout the weekend, the 22-year-old driver rejoiced.

A successful race, a good omen for this weekend at Silverstone for the British Grand Prix: (e) I have the feeling that it was the beginning of something good, and we will try to build on this foundation for Silverstone.

Note: It should be noted that Nyck De Vries scored his first points in F1 in 2022 during his first Grand Prix as a replacement for Albon, who was ill.
