Jost Capito has dropped a hint that his Williams team could confirm their plan to race Logan Sargeant in Formula 1 next season as soon as this weekend.
Nicholas Latifi will be released at the end of the year. And Williams have not yet declared who will be replacing the Canadian from next season – it is one of just two spaces on the 2023 grid which remains open, the other being at Haas.
Sargeant has, for a while, been considered as a front-runner for the vacant seat. He is a member of the team's driver development programme, and has performed well in F2 so far this year.
