Red Bull's top engineer has heaped praise upon their former driver Alex Albon after an impressive year back racing in Formula 1.
Albon may have feared the worst for his F1 career after dropping out of the sport. It came after a season and a half racing for Red Bull – an opportunity which came earlier than planned, following the struggles endured by Pierre Gasly in just a handful of races at the top team.
Red Bull retained him as a reserve and test driver and also played a part in finding him a seat after missing the 2021 season. He signed with Williams ahead of last year, initially retaining links with his old employer as he embarked on his debut year with his new team.
