<\/a><\/p>\nIsack Hadjar, Italian GP 2025
\u00a9 Red Bull<\/p>\n
The 20-year-old Racing Bulls driver has enjoyed an impressive debut season, capped by a breakthrough podium at Zandvoort recently.<\/p>\n
His form has already fuelled highly credible speculation that he will be promoted to Red Bull Racing alongside Max Verstappen in 2026.<\/p>\n
At the Red Bull Motormania festival at Magny-Cours on Saturday, Hadjar addressed the ‘Little Prost’ label that has followed him since his junior days.<\/p>\n
It’s an honour, he told RMC Sport. “That’s four titles. He’s the greatest French driver in history, which is nice. <\/p>\n
Now, it’s not a burden at all. And I’m even starting to talk more and more with Alain, we’ve developed a good relationship, so I’m really honoured.<\/p>\n
Hadjar also reflected on his landmark podium at the Dutch GP.<\/p>\n
I didn’t feel much at the time, he admitted. “I was more thinking about my whole journey since karting and all the struggles I encountered before arriving in Formula 1. For me, it really got to that level – it was really unachievable. <\/p>\n
“To be there and to have this podium, so early in my career, it was a little hard to imagine.<\/p>\n
It’s not a dream and everything – it’s a goal that I had. It was my first podium, I did it, now we move on.<\/p>\n
Hadjar, who turns 21 shortly, is the youngest Frenchman ever to stand on a Formula 1 podium.<\/p>\n
