Arvid Lindblad to drive in FP1 for Red Bull Racing at Mexico City Grand Prix

Red Bull Racing have confirmed that Arvid Lindblad will be driving for the team in Free Practice 1 at this weekend’s Mexico City Grand Prix.

This will mark Lindblad’s second time driving for the team on a Formula 1 race weekend after also jumping into the RB21 in FP1 at the British Grand Prix earlier this year at Silverstone.

Lindblad is currently in the midst of his rookie campaign in Formula 2 with Campos Racing, and with two rounds to go sits seventh in the Drivers’ Championship helped by three podium finishes, which include two wins.

The 18-year-old will now jump into the cockpit of Max Verstappen’s car in Mexico, taking to the track alongside Yuki Tsunoda.
