From next season
Ink dry! “Crash pilot” finds new team
New challenge for Logan Sargeant! The former Formula 1 "crash driver", who was shown the door at Williams, has found a new team.
The 23-year-old American will compete for the new LMP2 team from Genesis and IDEC Sport in the European Le Mans Series next season. Together with Jamie Chadwick and French talent Mathys Jaubert, he will drive the number 18 LMP2 car for Genesis. Sargeant will also be driving on a number of tracks that he already knows from his two years in the premier class of motorsport. Stops in the racing series include Barcelona, Imola, Spa-Francorchamps and Silverstone.
The racing team has big plans and wants to take part in the WEC with a hypercar in 2026. It is possible that Sargeant's LMP2 seat is the precursor to a role as a full-time hypercar driver in 2026.
No points in Formula 1
Sargeant failed to score a single point in Formula 1, instead drawing attention to himself through numerous accidents that cost Williams millions. They parted ways after the Dutch GP. His cockpit went to Franco Colapinto.
