Isack Hadjar has officially extended his contract with Red Bull Racing. The Frenchman will remain alongside Max Verstappen for the 2027 Formula 1 season, ensuring an unchanged driver lineup.
The announcement ends speculation about the notoriously difficult second Red Bull seat. Hadjar, who stepped up to the main team in 2026 after a rookie season at Racing Bulls, impressed with his speed and adaptation. He returns to action in Azerbaijan this weekend after missing three races due to injury.
“We’re very excited to continue our journey with Isack,” said Red Bull team boss Laurent Mekies. “Since joining us at the start of the year, he has been superb on and off track, especially considering this is only his second Formula 1 season, which made extending his contract an easy decision. From the very beginning, Isack immersed himself in the team, spending every minute at the factory with his engineers to develop the car, always eager to learn and improve. You could see from that first weekend in Melbourne that he handled the step up with remarkable composure and had earned his place in this seat.”
Hadjar is no stranger to the paddock. As a Red Bull junior, he caught attention with solid performances at Racing Bulls. Now, with growing maturity, he is trusted to partner Max Verstappen, who recently signed a contract extension until 2030. This pairing is expected to provide stability and strength for Red Bull in the new regulation era.
Red Bull's faith in Hadjar also stems from his hunger for knowledge. He is known for engaging in deep technical discussions with the team, a trait rarely seen in young drivers. It is this combination of speed and work ethic that convinced management to retain him.
With an unchanged lineup, Red Bull reaffirms their ambition to return to the top. While Verstappen remains the backbone, Hadjar is expected to continue developing and provide positive pressure. The 2027 season is still far away, but the signal from Milton Keynes is clear: they believe in continuity.
For Hadjar, this is a testament to his hard work. Now the next challenge is to deliver consistently and help the team win titles. His return in Azerbaijan will be a key moment to gauge his progress after injury.
Red Bull is also preparing for the 2027 power unit regulations that will shorten races. But with a solid driver lineup, they are optimistic about adapting quickly. A bright future lies ahead, and Hadjar is ready to be part of the story.
